This video was captured using the actual game on an actual Gamecube Game Boy Advance player.

Lets face it. The Game Boy Advance was a 2D machine. It could do 3D to some extent, but really excelled at 2D. Medal of Honor was traditionally a 3D game, and still is to this day. So when it came to doing 3D games on the Game Boy Advance, developers were left with two options. Either hammer out some very low resolution 3D graphics, or transform it into a good looking 2D game. Obviously the developer chose option B and boy was it the right decision. Turning a 2D game into a 3D game is a no risk operation as 3D was always the future. No, not the stupid 3D glasses type of 3D, but 3D graphics. However reverting back to 2D is very risky for obvious reasons. So how did EA do on this one? They hit it out of the park!

I remember looking at the back of the box of this game back when it was new and laughing. I dismissed the game because it looked nothing like Medal of Honor. It wasn't until recently when I played this game on my emulator that I discovered that this is one heck of a game. The top down perspective doesn't take away from this game at all. As all Medal of Honor games, they don't take themselves completely serious, but the action is always great. Same goes for this 2D rendition. The controls are good and the game is just.......fun. What more can you ask for? I haven't played all the way through the game yet, but so far I like how they mixed up the game play with some Operation Wolf style game play.

The graphics are nicely detailed as usual for the Game Boy Advance. The full motion video is quite pixelated, but come on, it's a cartridge. The sound is the only place this game suffers a little, and I do mean a little. The music sounds sort of canned due to very low sampling quality, but the music is still good. You forget about all that anyway once you get into the game because it's that good. Other than that, the game capture speaks for itself. They released another Medal of Honor called "Underground" which was the traditional first person shooter. Underground isn't even half of what this game is. Underground looks like crap and plays like crap. If you're looking for a decent FPS on the GBA, go for Doom or better yet Duke Nukem Advance.
