I remember watching your Allied Assault Review two years ago and thinking "Hey, hopefully he'll review the the first game" Well, it took longer than i expected, but well worth it!
Bro you can change the controls to work like a regular dual analog stick shooter. It’s not the default option, but play around with the settings and you can make it control normal.
Not to mention the AI, they searching for you if you escape the fight, you can shoot the gun out from their hand and they use the secondary. If you throw a granade to a group of enemies sometime they throw it back, sometime one of them jump on the grenade to try to save the rest. You can shoot somebody in the leg, and they start limping etc... Yes, it was a long time ago on PS, and even then, was not the best looking game and nobody had any idea how to program good controls on console for an FPS, but the AI behaviour beats most of the modern days AAA games (2016). It is a shame. One more thing wich does not ecxist anymore: Split screen multiplayer, with dedicated PvP maps.
What a great game this was back in the day, I enjoyed the sequel too. Then when I finally got to play Allied Assault on pc, my mind was pretty much blown.
Detective Lizard 2010 and Warfighter are Medal of Honor in name only. They lack everything that once made the series good. They are the worst games i have ever played.
+RevanBladeZ I haven't played them. I've only played Allied Assault plus the expansions and Rising Sun. 2010 and Warfighter look like they're just trying to catch the Call of Duty audience but the trick is that they already have Call of Duty so why would they need another game like it? I bet a WW2 return with modern graphics would be such a welcome return to the franchise.
Detective Lizard Yeah they tried to catch the Call of Duty audience but the thing is, Call of Duty developers know how to make a heavily scripted shooter work. Developers of these two games clearly did not. The story was barely even there, the scripted scenes were not impressive, there are moments where they try to add length to an already short game by having the NPC:s talk some shit before opening the door and both games are so linear that its painful. Example, near the very beginning of Warfighter, there is a scene where you cant aim away from a head of an enemy without shooting. Later in the game there are sections where you press the button and game starts playing for you. The game is just full of moments where you press button and then watch things happen instead of having full control over your character.
+RevanBladeZ I hate it when they remove control from you ingame. Ever since I played Return to Castle Wolfenstein a couple years back campaigns that force me to listen to exposition in the middle of a level annoys the hell out of me. One reason they do it is to hide the fact the level is loading so they make you listen to the beef head soldier until the part of the level has loaded and he'd slam the door open. I bet if they did a WW2 MoH game now it would be a welcome return though how well it would sell is a different question entirely.
Ohhh you brought back so many memories here! I liked so much that game back then and completed it in less than a week-end (I was pretty desapointed in fact, I would ask for more!!!) I really enjoy enemies cinematic even today, shooting off their helmet, seeing them jumping on your grenade or even better, throwing it back to you!
For someone who played all the Army Men games in the late 90's where enemies would simply fall over once shot, I was BLOWN AWAY when I played this and saw how each soldier reacted differently to being shot. Extremely impressive AI for its day.
Hey GGman, there's already a modern FPS control scheme in the first MoH. D-pad moves and strafes, right stick aims, O to reload, R2 to aim, and L2 to shoot if I can recall.
Dude thanks so much for making the video, couldn't have come at a better time. I bought a PS1 portable from a friend yesterday, and am in desperate need of game ideas. Definitely gonna get this one!
Ahh, I remember getting my PSone at age 6 and this being the first game I played and completed along with Underground, this is where my love for FPS was born, thanks gggman for the memories! Greetings from Nicaragua!
i loved this game, my old man bought me this for xmas, he had no idea about games but he chose well. i still play it every now and then to remind me of him. Thanks Dad.
+RevanBladeZ They probably wouldn't be impossible to port unless they lost the source code (which happens). Though even if they had lost the source code, sega has posted a lot of their games on steam running on emulators, so they could just develop custom emulation to maximize performance on windows for these games as well.
This was the first video game I ever played, my Aunt's boyfriend had bought a PS2 and donated his PS1 and all the games to me and my sister, I must have been 5 or 6 at the time. Support for the console was long dead (it was around 2005/6), but I didn't know that at the time. Still, the M1 Garand sound will forever bring me back to a much simpler time.
I still own a copy of this game for PlayStation, this was my first ever FPS game on console. I remember playing Medal of Honor Frontline and feeling like it was an updated version of this game. You're very lucky to have been able to find a copy of Medal of Honor underground.
I loved the old MoH games until Rising Sun came out and ruined everything. Also, I'm pretty sure you can change the controls so that the left thumbstick allows you to strafe and the right thumbstick to aim and turn. I wouldn't have been able to play it otherwise. The only thing I didn't like was the lack of a crosshair when you weren't aiming.
This is one of those games that deserves a remake/remaster on a pc, MoH: Underground included. Adding mouse support, a higher aspect ratio, and a greater field of view would easily make them better to handle. A great example would be the remaster to the N64 classic Turok. I can see it happening with MoH. I don't know why nobody has ever picked up on this idea. Copyright, difficulty in porting maybe?
+Ambassador Pineapple AAA devs+publishers are no more interested in WWII games. These days only modders (Project Reality WWII or Insurgency WWII mod) and middle tier devs like Tripware (Red Orcherstra 2) can do some new things in that setting.
ripoutyourprejudice Well, I'd say that it's expected that the game's missions would feel similar. You wouldn't buy a sequel to your favorite game series, only for it to feel very different. Medal of Honor always had the kind of feel of "authentic, but pushing it," where they did a good job making you feel like a soldier in a bigger war, but putting you in situations in which you were pulling out really important shit, often by yourself. At least it did in the earlier entries. By the time they started dishing out the PS2-era MoH games, that feel had changed entirely. As for the mission pack - I never got around to playing those, so I can't comment on them - but the mission pack is just a mission pack. It doesn't necessarily make the entirety of MoHAA a remake or anything, IMO.
ripoutyourprejudice Again, no. It doesn't matter if it's the same place, because it's a different time and a different character. That's why it's more sequel than remake.
Oh man, the nostalgia levels from the original Medal of Honor, meme level. XD I still remember unlocking that crazy Lost World Jurassic Park velociraptor skin in the split screen mp. XD Great review Gggmanlives!
I remember as a PC gamer I was pretty skeptical of Medal of Honor when it first game out but a friend bought it and I ended up really getting into it. It was full of impressive set pieces and was surprisingly immersive. Throwing grenades to dogs was also hilariously fun. Enemies reacting based on where they've been shot also impressed me quite a bit at the time.
Oh boy, a Medal of Honor review spree. My only real complaint with this review would be the mention of the dated analog controls. Yeah, the defaults are antiquated, but you fail to mention that there are much more modern analog control schemes available to use as well. Other than that, great review as always.
the actions and reactions of the enemy soldiers show more personality and flexibility then even modern shooters can produce. It reminded me alot of Goldeneye. It may sound strange, but i think FPS gamers can understand it when i say: It was fun shooting at them.
I grew up with an Xbox and played Medal of Honor Frontline, Rising Sun and European Assault but just recently downloaded this game on my PS3. I was not expecting it to be so good. But I was pleasantly surprised. I've been doing that with a bunch of series like Sonic, Crash and Rayman as well.
I actually first played this on an emulator myself a few years ago out of curiosity as sort of a look back from Call of Duty games, being that this inspired allied assault which was made by the original CoD team. Then after beating it I played Allied Assault. Both I will say are worth a play if you are interested in game history or just classic style gameplay.
Looks cool. I was thinking of picking it up at a store one day but I have other games I'm more interested in playing. I guess it'll go into my "someday" pile but near the very bottom of it. Great review as always and I got some Allied Assault vibes with it.
I played Frontline after seeing your review i played the GC version on my WII and had a blast, i did beat MOHAA several times but it was because of your review i gave Frontline a chance and i had a blast, but with this game, i really don't know it has really aged quite poorly and the bad controls... i am probably not going to play it but i enjoyed the review good sir.
Not sure about that game but i know that Underground (the one that came out after this) on ps1 had a controll shema which was execlty like a modern game. Left Stick walking in alldirections and right for aiming.
this brings back memories.I used to play the MoH:underground with my dad.And while im on the topic of old memories,could you review the army men games for the ps1,those were my favorites games back in the day.
Nice review! This was one of the few games I was looking forward so badly back in the day. This reminds me how awesome it was since there was nothing quite like it then. It has aged quite well despite the shoddy graphics.
Neet review, if you ever decide to go back you can choose controler setting 4 for a more “modern” set up. Left stick straifes , right aims, R2 fires your gun.
The game has a control sheme that is insanely similar to more modern controller layouts, I believe i´s Controller Setting A, for some reason I remember it to default to Setting B.
I have this on my shelf. I played this on my Silver PS2 which is sitting in the living room. It is an excellent game the game play is where it is at and I have no problem with the visuals because I know it's sense of spirit because I played most of the other installments save one. This is where the amazing theme and sound track all started. I am also in Love with World War 2 history and such. Though I don't think I will ever play COD WW2. It is funny because my friend dropped this off and said here it's "Sims 2000". It was a futuristic Sims game for PS1. Once I opened it up one late night for the hell of it. It was not sims it was MOH and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. The split screen PVP is still awesome and there are many cheats and codes you can unlock various characters my 2 favorites being Raptor and Bismarck. Bismarck was a German Shepard patrol dog, as well as slide shows from different Devs about things in game during development and jokes as well as pictures of them and their families.
One of the greatest games ever. The soundtrack is incredible. It's cool Steven Spielberg was involved. This was one of the first games ever where I saw enemies reacting to bullets. As a kid my jaw dropped when I saw Nazis jumping on grenades or holding their sore crotch after a penis shot.
I been a fan of medal of honor since allied assault and i just got this game on psn and im impressed the dual analog stick support is just as impressive as todays fps games. Absolutely amazing controls for a 19 year old game!
I think the modern FPS genre should die already, but I think to top the series off they should do a modern remake of this game, keep the core gameplay mechanics but tweak some things to make it play better. Hire professional Hollywood A celebrity voice actors to play the roles, give it an orchestral score from a real orchestra and just make it epic!
This game was one of my favorite PS1 games when I first got the system. I still love Medal of Honor to this day. Shame that EA just took this franchise and ruined it by trying to make it Modern Warfare. EA, if people want Modern Warfare 2, they'll go get Modern Warfare 2, not some wannabe that destroys the name of an great game series.
"Show me your papers please" I really love this game. If you complete the game 100% like I have you get a fantastic extra level unlocked. I won't say what it is because it would ruin the amazing surprise.
One of the game of my childhood ! But trying to play it back a couple years back went nowhere. I just couldn't or didn't want to wrap my head around the control scheme.
I found this guy that have a voice very similar to your voice, it's crazy how similar you two sound! He is a reviewr also and his name is Arekkz Gaming the video i saw was The Division Agent Abilities - Skill, perks & talents explained
+Gggmanlives I mean the sound of the voice is similar and of course you have the same dialect because your from aus. :P i didn't mean anything bad, just a cool thing. Keep it up with your reviews, you're an seriously awesome guy! Greeting from Sweden. :)
You can actually change the control scheme to the standard left to move right to look scheme in the options, my man. It's much much much better that way.
love this game since childhood and played it past year on emulator and its still great also i think you forgot to mention that game have interesting system of enemy reaction on hits there is a lot of animations not every modern shooter have something similar
FANTASTIC! hopefully you'll do alot more playstation 1 reviews in the future :D that was a little something i'd like to call "The Variation Age" where mostly some if not all Playstation 1 games had variety in gameplay, concepts, mechanics, stories, and the list goes on, it's nothing like now a days ' where games are just copies of themselves to appease the people who MAKE them; with buckets of money. n_n Even the PS2 was still in the variation age aswell! so that was pretty bad to the A$$.
I know this episode was recorded with an emulator... but... how do you recommend recording crisp PlayStation footage? I was thinking ElGato with the backwards compatible PS3.
I replayed MOH1 with PCSX plus the widescreen hack last year, and the game is still very fun to play, despite it's ancient graphics and gameplay. Underground is even better.
Hmmm... Guess I'm gonna have to play this one too... Anyway, since we are talking about PSX games now, would you like to make a review for Disruptor? I think that game was one of the best shooting games that ever came out for the PS1...
Anyone else getting hit by that "darkness glitch". Thanks to this review i dug up a copy of the game that i got with the system when i got it from my brother. Well i started playing it on the PS3 and on mission 1.2 and 1.3 i got hit by the glitch which make's a part's of the level disappear to darkness and force you to restart the mission. I saw some people claiming that the glitch is exclusive to PS3/PSP version's but i also saw someone saying that it occurred even on PS1. Does anyone have further info. I was thinking about trying the game on PS2 but the whole thing is bumming me out which is a shame because the game seem's actually pretty good.
I used to have the same with MoH Underground on my JB Ps3 I restart many levels more than 2 or 3 times but finally I finished the game... Now I'm playing the original MOH on my PlayStation classic... No problems so far.. The controllers has no analog sticks but the game is pretty playable till this time even like that!
I remember watching your Allied Assault Review two years ago and thinking "Hey, hopefully he'll review the the first game"
Well, it took longer than i expected, but well worth it!

@@CardizoneSemblance th-cam.com/video/suY06PVK_bI/w-d-xo.html That kind of alarm would be sounded
I like how the main menu screen is identical to allied assault
Except for the couple of people doing stuff, but identical nonetheless.
People thought the vice versa when Allied Assault released ;)
Same for Frontline, for most of the games actually
Bro you can change the controls to work like a regular dual analog stick shooter. It’s not the default option, but play around with the settings and you can make it control normal.
ok thanks got it on ps3 psn store
its kinda atrocious but i might be able to play though it
Yup I chose #4

yeah localized damage has never been adopted . Heck rock star had it in red dead redemption and removed it in gta5
ThreeDaysOfDan Some games have them. Some games don't. Dunno why they remove them in some games even though they used it before and it worked.
I wish he would have covered those parts. If you were fast enough you could shoot the soldier laying on the grenade and he rolls off it
i was playing this last night, and i thought the AI was cheap. i have no idea how i am supposed to beat them (aside from watching youtube vids).
What a great game this was back in the day, I enjoyed the sequel too. Then when I finally got to play Allied Assault on pc, my mind was pretty much blown.

Classic! Still one of my favorite games, even after all these years. Cool soundtrack and fun story line.
It actually holds up surprisingly well today. There's a kind of novelty to playing games that are really uncomplicated.
Ohhh you brought back so many memories here! I liked so much that game back then and completed it in less than a week-end (I was pretty desapointed in fact, I would ask for more!!!)

6:54 took me about five seconds to realize you said "pawn" shop
Hey GGman, there's already a modern FPS control scheme in the first MoH. D-pad moves and strafes, right stick aims, O to reload, R2 to aim, and L2 to shoot if I can recall.
3:55 you do realize the game offers several control schemes?
Yeah you can set it to a modern layout
And if have dualshock, you can have it with a much better control scheme, and makes playing the much better
I'm looking forward to your Airborne review. : D
I absolutely LOVED that game! Good choice!
+Master of unlocking That was too close, you were almost a Jill sandwich.
Possibly the best WW2 FPS on consoles. I liked how the controls worked too when ADS, some people didn't but fuck 'em.

Yeah! Love this game. Glad you took the time to show it some appreciation.
Just started playing this again after 17+ years and to say the least I'm having an absolute blast. Gotta be the best FPS series on PS.

Also because it looks familiar, I'm "revisiting nostalgia" so to speak.
You rock man! keep up that great work. nice job on the editing.

Just wanted to say: watched all your videos. Your reviews are to the point but not dry...Sunny Jim (?). Anyway, two thumbs up from a fan.
I have this on my psp, the undercover missions are tough as nails.
Medal of honor 1,underground, alied assault, and the other early pc entries should come to steam.
+Stevenator Bensonica Original and Underground are PS1 exclusives.
+RevanBladeZ They probably wouldn't be impossible to port unless they lost the source code (which happens).
Though even if they had lost the source code, sega has posted a lot of their games on steam running on emulators, so they could just develop custom emulation to maximize performance on windows for these games as well.
If they ported the first three console games to PC, I would by that shit up fast.
On my copy I was able to change the layout of the analog sticks to a more modern configuration. And that was on the PS2!
"Youh papahs ahe in ordah!"
3:42 - 4:01
Note: You can actually go to the options & change the controls to where you can move with 1 stick & look with the other.

It get a lot easier if you configure the right stick to aim and left to move and strafe

+ripoutyourprejudice Noooooo...it's a sequel. Halo: Anniversary Edition. THAT'S a remake.
+ripoutyourprejudice So a single mission? That hardly classifies it as a remake. Most of the missions are completely different.
ripoutyourprejudice Well, I'd say that it's expected that the game's missions would feel similar. You wouldn't buy a sequel to your favorite game series, only for it to feel very different.

+Voracious Slacker I'm mentioning it because not everyone bothers to change the control scheme.
Fair enough, but I still think it would be worth a mention.
This game was so polished for a 1999 console FPS. The *ding* that comes with enemy helmets getting shot brings back so many memories...
I like your reviews man
the actions and reactions of the enemy soldiers show more personality and flexibility then even modern shooters can produce. It reminded me alot of Goldeneye. It may sound strange, but i think FPS gamers can understand it when i say: It was fun shooting at them.
If you change the control scheme to 3 or 4 it controls exactly like a modern game! Left stick moves, right stick looks, L2 aims and R2 fires.
Siiick you got Instagram! Also keep up the awesome reviews! ^^
I grew up with an Xbox and played Medal of Honor Frontline, Rising Sun and European Assault but just recently downloaded this game on my PS3. I was not expecting it to be so good. But I was pleasantly surprised. I've been doing that with a bunch of series like Sonic, Crash and Rayman as well.

excellent review and game. man the two medal of honour games and pandemonium games are my favourite PS1 games when i was a kid.
Not sure about that game but i know that Underground (the one that came out after this) on ps1 had a controll shema which was execlty like a modern game. Left Stick walking in alldirections and right for aiming.
In the first game its changable in the options menu. I think he must have missed it (Or I have a bad memory)

After watching that intro I would love too see you make like a 30 minute ps1 retrospective
Neet review, if you ever decide to go back you can choose controler setting 4 for a more “modern” set up.
Left stick straifes , right aims, R2 fires your gun.
u can configure your control on the control settings, i think that the 3rd configuration have the most "modern" controls you can have.
the standard controls with the strafing on the shoulder buttons will always be the best. you basically can drift through the levels lol
left analog for strafing and moving and right analog for aiming. perfect.
1:48 This is what made these WW2 games so great. It felt that more grand.
The game has a control sheme that is insanely similar to more modern controller layouts, I believe i´s Controller Setting A, for some reason I remember it to default to Setting B.
+Soonjai It's remappable really easily. I never used the defaults when I tried it, going straight for a more modern setup :D
I have this on my shelf. I played this on my Silver PS2 which is sitting in the living room. It is an excellent game the game play is where it is at and I have no problem with the visuals because I know it's sense of spirit because I played most of the other installments save one. This is where the amazing theme and sound track all started. I am also in Love with World War 2 history and such. Though I don't think I will ever play COD WW2. It is funny because my friend dropped this off and said here it's "Sims 2000". It was a futuristic Sims game for PS1. Once I opened it up one late night for the hell of it. It was not sims it was MOH and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2. The split screen PVP is still awesome and there are many cheats and codes you can unlock various characters my 2 favorites being Raptor and Bismarck. Bismarck was a German Shepard patrol dog, as well as slide shows from different Devs about things in game during development and jokes as well as pictures of them and their families.
I finished this game not long ago and it was an amazing experience I love this game, Underground, and Allied Assault
One of the greatest games ever. The soundtrack is incredible. It's cool Steven Spielberg was involved. This was one of the first games ever where I saw enemies reacting to bullets. As a kid my jaw dropped when I saw Nazis jumping on grenades or holding their sore crotch after a penis shot.
I been a fan of medal of honor since allied assault and i just got this game on psn and im impressed the dual analog stick support is just as impressive as todays fps games. Absolutely amazing controls for a 19 year old game!
this might be my most nostalgic games ever and the theme for this game is one of my favs along with morrowind and metal gear solid 2
Game at 0:58 ?
I just bought this game yesterday. I love it. : D
MoH underground was my favorite back in the day
Used to love the undercover infiltration missions in this game. It would have to be one of the first fps to include this.
6:52 "And I snagged my copy from a porn shop"
+DRM Sparkles *pawn
Gggmanlives ya i know but it just sounds like that lol
There's a control scheme in the options that mimics modern controls more closely. #4, I think.
Its the earliest I've ever arrived and im not disappointed
Please do Airborne, I loved it ! Great reviews btw
What is the game at 0:43 ? I remember having a demo of it and i've been trying to find for years !!!
Auto Destruct.
Gggmanlives well man thanks for the fast reply ! Im glad to finaly knowing after a very long unsuccesful search
Keep up the good content !
0:56 what is that
I think the modern FPS genre should die already, but I think to top the series off they should do a modern remake of this game, keep the core gameplay mechanics but tweak some things to make it play better. Hire professional Hollywood A celebrity voice actors to play the roles, give it an orchestral score from a real orchestra and just make it epic!
This game was one of my favorite PS1 games when I first got the system. I still love Medal of Honor to this day. Shame that EA just took this franchise and ruined it by trying to make it Modern Warfare. EA, if people want Modern Warfare 2, they'll go get Modern Warfare 2, not some wannabe that destroys the name of an great game series.
"Show me your papers please" I really love this game. If you complete the game 100% like I have you get a fantastic extra level unlocked. I won't say what it is because it would ruin the amazing surprise.
Aw god... right in the childhood, this crash bandicoot and dune 2000
One of the game of my childhood ! But trying to play it back a couple years back went nowhere. I just couldn't or didn't want to wrap my head around the control scheme.
I found this guy that have a voice very similar to your voice, it's crazy how similar you two sound! He is a reviewr also and his name is Arekkz Gaming the video i saw was The Division Agent Abilities - Skill, perks & talents explained
+BlackVenom Ash All Aussies sound alike.
+Gggmanlives I mean the sound of the voice is similar and of course you have the same dialect because your from aus. :P i didn't mean anything bad, just a cool thing. Keep it up with your reviews, you're an seriously awesome guy! Greeting from Sweden. :)
BlackVenom Ash
All good brother, no offense taken. Maybe he and I are long lost twins :)
You can actually change the control scheme to the standard left to move right to look scheme in the options, my man. It's much much much better that way.
love this game since childhood
and played it past year on emulator
and its still great
also i think you forgot to mention that game have interesting system of enemy reaction on hits
there is a lot of animations
not every modern shooter have something similar
I remember enjoying this game so much when it first came out.
The music in this game is fantastic, I liked it so much in fact that I bought the soundtrack CD and I still have both in my collection :D
FANTASTIC! hopefully you'll do alot more playstation 1 reviews in the future :D that was a little something i'd like to call "The Variation Age" where mostly some if not all Playstation 1 games had variety in gameplay, concepts, mechanics, stories, and the list goes on, it's nothing like now a days ' where games are just copies of themselves to appease the people who MAKE them; with buckets of money. n_n Even the PS2 was still in the variation age aswell! so that was pretty bad to the A$$.
I used to play this game so much at my friends house, god i am getting old
0:57 what game is that
I know this episode was recorded with an emulator... but... how do you recommend recording crisp PlayStation footage?
I was thinking ElGato with the backwards compatible PS3.
+SILVERMANIA I'm not too sure about that one, sorry.
I replayed MOH1 with PCSX plus the widescreen hack last year, and the game is still very fun to play, despite it's ancient graphics and gameplay. Underground is even better.
is there collectibles or a hard mode in this game i want to 100% it
Hmmm... Guess I'm gonna have to play this one too... Anyway, since we are talking about PSX games now, would you like to make a review for Disruptor? I think that game was one of the best shooting games that ever came out for the PS1...
Anyone else getting hit by that "darkness glitch". Thanks to this review i dug up a copy of the game that i got with the system when i got it from my brother. Well i started playing it on the PS3 and on mission 1.2 and 1.3 i got hit by the glitch which make's a part's of the level disappear to darkness and force you to restart the mission. I saw some people claiming that the glitch is exclusive to PS3/PSP version's but i also saw someone saying that it occurred even on PS1. Does anyone have further info. I was thinking about trying the game on PS2 but the whole thing is bumming me out which is a shame because the game seem's actually pretty good.
I used to have the same with MoH Underground on my JB Ps3 I restart many levels more than 2 or 3 times but finally I finished the game... Now I'm playing the original MOH on my PlayStation classic... No problems so far.. The controllers has no analog sticks but the game is pretty playable till this time even like that!
