Product Description

Product Description
Men of Valor: The Vietnam War is an historical action experience that portrays infantry combat during the Vietnam War. Using the latest Unreal technology Men of Valor immerses the player in the humid jungles of Southeast Asia in the most controversial conflict of the modern era. Men of Valor follows an American Marine through the early stages of the conflict in Vietnam to the Tet Offensive. Touching on the some of the most familiar scenes of the war as they exist in the popular imagination, the player guides his group of fellow soldiers through the hardship and confusion of the battlefield, bonding with them as they do their duty for their country with the heroism and valour typical of the American soldier but unsung during the turbulent times.

The intensity of the historical battlefield is recreated with cunning AI, detailed graphics, and interactive scripted sequences that put the player in the middle of scenes like those in the finest war films. The storyline follows the player through the major actions in the conflict, from search and destroy missions around Da Nang airbase to the Tet offensive and the counterattack on Hue.

A cast of AI controlled characters accompanies the player through the missions, and he learns their value and mourns their loss as the war progresses. The game supports a cooperative mode that allows the player to experience the entire tour of duty with his friends, and various multiplayer modes allow the player to experience the war from the perspective of North Vietnamese Army or Viet Cong guerrillas as well as US Forces.

4.0 out of 5 stars yup., 1 Jan 2005
By A Customer
Ok, MOV..

It's almost impossible to create a war based game better than the PC version of Call of Duty, so to play any other game is instantly going to be worse.. whether it's for the PC or a console. However, MOV succeeds in some places that COD doesn't.

Outlook - I can honestly say that this is borderling "great".. the graphics are truely on another level in some parts of the game (eg. check out the water & pebbles). It seems to have all the ingredients of an intense first person war shooter.

Controls - Because it's on a console the controls are always going to tricky, there's no way around that, but you can adjust. It's no different than playing halo.

Computer AI - The enemies intelligence is almost annoying, in two aspects. Firstly when they're taking you out from within fog or from a place you can't even see; it's almost unrealistic.. & another criticism of the AI is that sometimes they can just be too dumb, the AI is nowhere near that of Halo.

Music - Mid-combat has a lot of perks for the avid fan.. the music and atmosphere that's set is second to none.. the screams of men being shot down, the inspirational words of fellow soldiers, it really does set the mood.

Weapons - The selection is excellent, tons of guns to test out on your enemies, you can also pick up, what looked like upgrades for certain guns which i thought was a nice addition, & Call of duty fans will recognise the russian PSHH automatic.

And Most importantly..

Gameplay/Handling - Although niggly at times, the gameplay is intense and will have you hooked. With all the above criteria's i've reviewed, they combine to make a gem of a game which is well worth your money.

Hope this short review helps out your decision in some way.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good and enjoyable, 13 Oct 2005
By A Customer
I am really enjoying this game.

It is quite tough in places especially when you can only save at checkpoints. The selection of weapons is great and I believe is quite accurate.

Graphics and sound are good.

It's a straight forward FPS and I would recomend it as a great buy!
