It would be like, the most brutal thing ever.

You find sitting in a trench while having mortar rounds dropped on you for hours is fun?

The fun part would be where you got out of the trench (aka the part where the game would actually play, not the waiting) and watch your buddies get torn to bits as you desperately try to push the enemies back with almost little to no cover (I assume you would use the bloodied corpses of your fellow soldiers at some points). That would be awesome if done correctly.

WW1 shooters have been attempted several times.

The only attempt I liked was the hellish nightmare WW1 in the Darkness.

My whole opinion on the Medal of Honor/MW2/Killzone 2 picture is that I've played Killzone 2, it feels and acts a lot different than Modern Warfare 2. It's a lot better than MW2. So putting it in that picture isn't fair to the game in my opinion. If you play it, it feels like it's trying to be something different and not just rip off of the modern shooter genre, even if it uses an M4 and regenerative health.

I can't speak for Medal of Honor. I don't think anybody should be speaking against it as none of us have played it or will play it until the beta and the final product. That's when I think we should be judging it. Personally, I think if DICE and EA manage to conjure up something that's like a BF:BC2 and MW2 love child, it could be good. Mind you, I don't like Modern Warfare 2 at all, but there are SOME good ideas, and those are the ones that I think if mixed correctly with BF:BC2 and some fresh ideas, could make for a good game.

I honestly think for a series that was essentially designed to be a game version of Saving Private Ryan/ Band of Brothers to become a bastard child of Bad company 2 and Modern Warfare 2 is a disgrace to the original's name.

SPR doesn't compare to the greatness of BoB. Now I will reserve my final opinion of MoH when it comes out.

Well I played some of the old ones. Not the original ones, just the ones that were back on the Gamecube and the PS2. I enjoyed them. I've seen other people who loved the original games and are angry about where the reboot is heading.

Personally, after playing those games and hearing those fans, I'm just taking MoH out of "This is a reboot" land and putting it in "This is a completely different game just with the same title" land. I'm not counting it in the MoH series anymore. I'm counting it as a completely different game with the same name.

Ruski, you have to reserve MoH to get into the beta. Just felt like telling you in case you didn't know.

SPR: 3 hours long.
BoB: 12 hours long.
No real way to compare them on the same level.

Unless you have a PS3

The only part of WWI I find would be part way interesting is 1918, when trench fighting was on the decline and there were tanks. Even then it's still would be really hard to do, since it's Germany versus all the Allies, and the Allies have all the tanks.

I'd personally like to see a game during the Battle of the Somme

Seeing that much death and being forced to repeat it, several times just desperately getting through it would be an interesting.

Think the rushes in the Russian campiagn of the original COD and you get the idea.

You are aware Medal of Honor was started by Infinity Ward, right?

so then if it's being made by DICE now, a BC2 and MW2 offspring would be EXACTLY within the realm of possibility.

It was not.

Medal of Honor was developed by DreamWorks interactive.

They were part of the original team, yes, but they left as they didn't agree with EA.
