The aim was, according to developers to take into account what would happen. By choosing to use real battles as part of the game, developers had to pay very careful attention to maintaining a sense of respect for all those who actually fought and perished in the real life events and to remain accurate as far as the timeline, environments and strategies used were concerned. We are doing the same thing for Rising Sun by using both actual battles and events. A good example of this is how we used Operation Market Garden in Medal of Honor: Frontline as a backdrop for Jimmy Patterson's adventures. According to Chris Cross, Game Design Director, We use actual events from WWII as a framework to base our Stories/Missions on. The Rising Sun installment of Medal of Honor will take a step away from its predecessors as far as the story is concerned.
Dale Dye, who served as military technical advisor on the previous titles in the Medal of Honor franchise, continues his efforts with the Medal of Honor Rising Sun team to ensure the authenticity of the game. EALA continues to work closely with the Congressional Medal of Honor Society to ensure Medal of Honor Rising Sun reflects the ideals and integrity of the prestigious Medal of Honor. Along the way, players will earn awards and medals for their meritorious service in defeating the enemy.Īs with the original Medal of Honor, the producers sought council from numerous outside sources to make certain the game is as historically authentic and realistic as possible. Players can even team up with a friend in the all-new co-op multiplayer mode to battle the Japanese forces. Armed with his wits and a variety of authentic weapons, it's up to players to stop the Japanese war machine in its tracks. Players will assume the role of Marine Corporal Joseph Griffin, as he survives the attack on Pearl Harbor, leads the assault of Guadalcanal, and finally rescues his brother from a Japanese POW camp in the Philippines. Set for the first time in the Pacific Theatre of Operations from 1941-1944, Medal of Honor Rising Sun gives players a sense of the courage it took to fight the Japanese from Pearl Harbor to the shores of the Philippine Islands. Medal of Honor Rising Sun will be available for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, the Nintendo GameCube and the Xbox video game system from Microsoft in the fall of 2003, with a PC version planned for some time in 2004. Developed by EALA, Medal of Honor Rising Sun will attempt to create an immersive and authentic WWII experience in either single-player or multi-player modes.
Medal of Honor Rising Sun from Electronic Arts. This time the game will let you step into the boots of a Marine Corporal, survive the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor, and drive the Japanese Army from the Pacific. What that game and all subsequent releases managed to, once again, demonstrate is that great games need great risks. Granted, Wolfenstein had set the stage but the sheer scale of MoH meant that there was a lot more to lose. "Gamers look for futuristic weapons in an FPS" claimed critics of the project adding their doubts as to the interest a World War II would create. When the original version of Medal of Honor was announced many claimed that there was no way of implementing the novel and ambitious plans while producing a worthwhile game.
