![]() When Allied Assault released I was in Middle School but I can still remember a kid at the bus stop going on and on about the game and how great it was. Michael Giacchino had composed the phenomenal music scores for the series up to this point and I think his work is the primary reason why these games are so atmospheric. With a story created by Steven Spielberg, Medal of Honor took a cinematic approach which would carry over into its sequels, including Medal of Honor: Allied Assault which was also the first Medal of Honor game released on PC. In 1999 the first Medal of Honor was released for the Sony PlayStation and it was during a time when console first-person shooters were in their infancy. The Band of Brothers miniseries released in 2001 and it was during this time, in the late 90s and early 2000s, that World War II shooters saturated the video game market. I still remember watching the Normandy Invasion scene for the first time and being in awe from the brutality of what I was seeing. Saving Private Ryan released in 1998 and is one of the greatest World War II movies ever made. While I agree that those games are excellent, I don’t know if they quite reach the number one spot. Some even say the original Call of Duty, including the United Offensive expansion is the best. I’ve heard many people say Call of Duty 2 is the greatest World War II shooter ever released. ![]()
