Fanning the PR flames
Medal of Honor is causing quite the stir. You'll all remember the problematic beta test phase, which was soon followed by Taliban-gate after critics lashed out at the title for incorporating the name of an active terrorist faction engaged in an ongoing war with international troops.
The game has launched today in the US, but is still suffering a boycott by many military stores and persons who have refused point blank to carry the game or to endorse/condone the title.
However, right now, there is a launch trailer for the game which has been pushed out and might bring discussions about the game back on track. You can check the trailer out below:

Medal of Honor launches 14th October (AU), 15th October (EU) and is available today in the US. |

I'm still not interested, even with the controversy surrounding it (I KNOW that'll get it more sales).
Even though I've heard good things about the game, mainly the multiplayer, I'm gonna pass. Medal of Honor should have stayed in World War II, IMHO. |

| Sad, really. I wanted EA to stick it to Activision but based on reviews it looks like they didn't do a very good job. |

MP servers are for shit, lag issues and not being able to connect to match types at most times. That and my copy didn't come with a Online Pass code, so I have to go back and get another. Very unimpressed.
On a good note, the solo campaign is pretty sweet tho. |

| Meh, I won't buy any FPS for console due the horrible aiming but I may get this if they have the incredible deals like BFBC2 did $30 2 weeks after launch. With Reach, Bad Company 2 and Black Ops all around the same time Medal of Honor never had a chance. Dice just picked a bad time for this to come out either they were to late or to early... Hopefully BF3 will bounce them back if they suffer on this title. |
