Not sure if this had the same campaign as the PC release (ah, the good ol’ days where games on different platforms could be completely different); but both Medal of Honor and the very first Call of Duty were formative FPS experiences for me.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Naw, this and the PC were different.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a different game, you're thinking of the sequel MoH: Allied Assault

[–] thatKamGuy 3 points 3 weeks ago

The moment you named the subtitle (Allied Assault), you hit the nail on the head!

WOW, I never realised that the series began on the PS1 - or that Allied Assault was the THIRD entry in the series! I guess I’ll have to add both PS1 entries to my hunt list.

Wasn't this the one that started with D day and storming the beach? I remember being blown away by how good it looked, which I'm sure would not be the case today!

[–] Marafon 8 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yes! This game was amazing at the time. Storming Normandy and a later mission on German u boat are both core memories for me. And I can confirm (though this was almost 10 years ago now, so it's probably worse still) graphics do not hold up today at all but I remember still liking the actual gameplay still. Might try to spin that up in an emulator sometime for shits and gigs. Thanks for the blast from the past OP.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Sounds like you're thinking of Frontline.

MOH1 starts with you parachuting into France

[–] Marafon 3 points 3 weeks ago

I am absolutely thinking of Frontline! Thanks for setting me straight!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

No, you’re thinking of Medal of Honor Allied Assault.

This is the PS1 game.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Frontline and Allied Assault started with D-Day. MOH:AA was PC only though

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Thabk you! It was Frontline! I just went and looked. I guess I never played the original.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 weeks ago

Awful tanky controls (understandable) didn't stop me from getting 100% genitals shots in some of it's missions. Local deathmatch was kinda better because both of you struggled with them. 7\10 for me as a kid, but if I'd play it now as it was back then, I'd quickly drop it in favor of something with a third person perspective. It wasn't just there yet, and devs did the best they could.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

My strongest memory of Medal Of Honor is the undercover missions. Flipping the ID badge out over and over again like an idiot because the animation was funny.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

I can’t be sure it’s from this game as I played it 100 years ago, but

There was a mission where you’re in a German base. You’re just fucking their shit up and they start saying weird shit over the PA like, "Surrender now and you vill be treated vith charity und kindness."

I thought it was hilarious.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

The game that got me into dual stick controls and first person shooters in general, absolutely loved this game.

never managed to play it
i found a PC CD in a box n the street and wanted to play it
While waiting at school to go home i managed to go on a PC and read about some map because i wanted to make myself familiar with it

But somehow later the install did somehow not work ;.;
Still fond of the knowledge i gained

so still good memories even without playing

I played this on Steam Deck last year. Great game for its time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Does the Steam deck have a PS1 emulator?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The Steam Deck is basically a laptop in the shape of a gaming handheld. You can install any PC software you want right out of the box.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

They're being snarky, but the PSX game is different to game released on PC.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

You can still install any software, including emulators.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

The steam deck is just a small pc running Linux, so yes.
