Very well done atmospheric effects. The environment is kinetic, lively, dramatic, and makes extra effort to make you feel like you're there. The realistic weapons, the German soldier dying in a variety of different ways, your commander giving you commands and the troop moving along with you, the orchestrated music, the explosions and sounds of war fighting all around you... It's almost on the same level as Saving Private Ryan, except there's no plot.
Well paced. The mission objectives are diverse, unique, and are fed to you at a nice pace.
The basic point and shoot, hide behind walls, get into gun turrets, use a variety of different types of weapons appeal of First Person Shooters.
It has a nice appeal to the war genre niche. If you like war movies, then you will probably like this game.

All you do is go around killing things. Not enough story development. The story is, "Those German dogs are gonna get us, so let's get them." Saving Private Ryan had a story with characters and a theme, but this is just going into an area, killing soldiers, and fulfilling mission duties.
Too Linear.
Controls take a little getting used to... but what do you expect from a console.
Nothing too original. War movies have been around forever, and this is also the fourth installment of the Medal Of Honor series. This one just has prettier graphics. First Person Shooters are also nothing new. The only thing that sets this game above the rest is all the bells and whistles.
