Australian Version

In the Australian version of Medal of Honor Heroes 2, there is no multiplayer support much to the dismay of Australian fans who were looking forward to the game's multiplayer feature. EA's offical reponse to this was, "Medal of Honor Heroes 2 for Wii does not support online functionality in Australia. We made an error in the documentation and marketing materials. We are very sorry to have caused confusion for our customers. We will provide a refund to anyone in Australia who wishes to return the game to EA because of the lack of online functionality."  Austrailian EB and GameStop have gotten rid of f any notice of multiplayer support for the game from their website. Speculation as to why the game shipped with no multiplayer is that EA would not turn a profit hosting the local servers.

Reception

Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 has generally received mixed or average reviews. Metacritic gave the game a 73 and GameRankings gave the game a 75. Overall the game was well received for it's controls, fast gameplay and impressive online. The game was criticized for its awful AI and generic story.
