It's a hard dilemma, especially when you have inefficient funds. Basically, Medal of Honor doesn't offer anything new, but a potentially interesting story and nice gameplay. I played the BETA and for everybody's surprise i liked it. It has it's nice ideas and it definitely doesn't come out every year.
The annual Call of Duty will be settled behind the enemy lines during the Cold War, which is a pretty attractive idea itself, considering that there hasn't been any successful Cold War games released. Call of Duty has never let me down (and so hasn't Medal of Honor), but I feel that Treyarch won't do as well as Infinity Ward. A lot of people are bashing both games so I don't know what to think. I'll probably pick up Medal of Honor.
What about you?
Medal of Honor or CoD: Black Ops? Which one you'll pick up?
Neither. Online centric games are not for me. From what I've seen of the 2 games probably Black ops if I was forced to buy one.
I'm going with Medal of Honor. Black Ops seems like they took what people like the most about all the other games and crushed them all into a small jar and called it a game.
Also I find the guns sound way better in Medal of Honor, but that's just me.
I'm pre-ordered MoH because i got it cheap. I already have MW2 and i don't like it so theres no need to get Black Ops.
And they both definitely are online centric games. I mean come on call of duty campaings are extremely scripted rollercoaster rides. They are entertaining but only once and i have no doubt in my mind that Medal of Honor will be just more that.
I am getting Call of Duty: Black Ops for sure, but if I have extra money I will get Medal of Honor as well.
It's really not a hard dilemma imo...MoH looks like shit and played like shit in the beta and I guarantee it will be disappointing, CoD is an established FPS franchise that will sell millions, have a ton of post-release support, and be a way better game in virtually every aspect.
That's coming from someone who doesn't even like CoD games, believe it or not.
I'm pretty torn on this myself. I enjoyed Bad Company 2 much more than MW2, so that makes me want to swap into the MoH camp.
But the beta for MoH left me underwhelmed, even though I'm trying to remind myself that it was a beta and I should reserve judgment. Conversely, I really like what I've seen of Black Ops so far, with all the new game modes and customization stuff.
So, yeah, not sure what to do. I'll probably end up buying both, and selling the one I end up playing less.
"This. I hate FPS games because I suck in online FPS, only thing that appeals to me are the story. I wouldn't buy either, I'd just borrow.(:I'm going with Medal of Honor. Black Ops seems like they took what people like the most about all the other games and crushed them all into a small jar and called it a game.
Battlefield 3.
After playing Bad Company 2 and MW2,I want to play more battlefield.
MORE BATTLEFIELD.
Possibly Black Ops, just because everyone I know will be getting it for the CoD name alone. I'm not fond of competitive FPS, as I'm absolutely terrible at them. The same scenario always plays out. I see an enemy player, and I immediately freeze up like a deer caught in headlights. If I don't instantly get headshot by him, I'll proceed to suck at aiming in a panic and shoot rounds in the sky.
I will be getting Black Ops simply because a lot of my friends are going to be getting it. I tried out the Medal of Honor beta and it just didn't click with me at all. That said, there's a big possibility that I'll just be playing Reach when Black Ops comes out and then Assassin's Creed the very next week. There's an even bigger possibility that I will just be playing Minecraft.
I'm not sure I'll get either, I've had enough of all the AI controlled planes, choppers etc in MW2 unbalancing everything. So I've made a decision to not buy another Call of Duty game.
I also played COD4 regularly online from its release in 2007 until a few months ago so I've kind of had enough of this type of shooter.
If I had to make a choice it would be MoH because as I stated above I don't like how unbalanced it become once they added a ton of those killstreak rewards. Also as someone stated before, MoH has incredible sound design.
