- This article is about the Medal of Honor video game, for information on the American Medal of Honor see, Medal of Honor.
Medal of Honor (MOH) is the name of a series of first-person shooter games set in World War II. The first game was developed by DreamWorks Interactive (currently known as EA Los Angeles) and published by Electronic Arts in 1999 for the PlayStation game console. Medal of Honor spawned a series of follow-up games including multiple expansions spanning accross various console platforms and the PC.
In the original Medal of Honor, the player takes the role of Lt. Jimmy Patterson, an OSS agent. The goal of the game is to complete objectives, such as destroying enemy positions, and kill enemy German forces in the process.
Some consider it to be a controversial video game because of its violence and its attempts at realism. For example, the game was banned in Germany in 2000.
The Medal of Honor series puts the player in the shoes of an Allied combatant during World War II, with weaponry appropriate to the time period. The games are characterized by linear gameplay through recognizable WWII-era areas of conflict, which is sometimes presented in a cinematic tone (e.g., inspiration from modern films like Saving Private Ryan and Enemy at the Gates and the television miniseries Band of Brothers is obvious).
