The high levels of screen-tear in the Xbox 360 version can be particularly off-putting whether you're playing campaign or the multiplayer game." Frame-rate analysis of the Xbox 360 online game reveals a fairly consistent update, though obtrusive screen-tear is clearly an issue. Land through a window from the direction you start in the air; near the “Destroy radio equipment” objective. Unreal Engine 3 is tasked with powering another high-profile game, this time the Medal of Honor single-player campaign from US studio Danger Close. Microsoft hasn't updated this list since 2007, so if you don't see a title below, don't expect it to show up in the future. Xbox Games You Can Play on Xbox 360

It would be impossible for a game like Medal of Honor to render its exhaustive range of visual effects and lighting while running at 60FPS on consoles, so instead Danger Close targets a 30FPS frame-rate, which allows the engine a far more manageable 33.33ms of rendering time to generate each frame. On top of that, this allows for the developers to realise the impressive array of lighting and effects which engulf every facet of the aesthetic. This is a Frostbite 2 game - so the PC version offers a significantly enhanced experience over the consoles that goes beyond resolution and frame-rate." Obvious PC advantages - such as the ability to run Warfighter at higher resolutions like 1080p (pictured) make a big difference to the overall presentation of the game. Medal of Honor: Warfighter performance analysis Air support is a constant fixture and another element that heightens your sense of involvement. You're frequently invited to paint targets for incoming F-15s ("fast movers") and drones, but it's when the delicacy of that network of assets is stressed and strained that the game does its best line in high drama. There's an assault where you need to suppress a powerful enemy gun emplacement with your M249 SAW, all the while your squad-mates bravely advance to mark it with red phosphorous. Shortly afterward, you're caught out in a valley by an IED and forced to defend against waves of AK-47 and RPG-toting Taliban forces as the world falls apart around you, until you genuinely feel as though you can't save yourself. War is serious business, and if you doubt how seriously Medal of Honor developers Danger Close and DICE are taking the conflict their game portrays, consider the public explanation for the decision to change your multiplayer opponents from "Taliban" to "Opposing Force". It was taken "for the men and women serving in the military and for the families of those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice," according to executive producer Greg Goodrich, because "this franchise will never wilfully disrespect, intentionally or otherwise, your memory and service." Serious words delivered with humility, but still words from a man who at some point during the game's development sat in a meeting where someone said, "Yes, let's have a quad-bike level." In terms of anti-aliasing, post-process edge-smoothing is used on the consoles. FXAA is employed on the 360, while an MLAA implementation is swapped in on PlayStation 3 instead. On first impressions, overall image quality is very similar across both platforms. While regular edges are smoothed over quite nicely, sub-pixel shimmering is still an issue and we also see some visible pixel-popping artefacts which can accentuate the jaggies in more detailed areas of the game. That said, PS3's MLAA tech does a slightly better job in troublesome areas, with this version gaining a slightly smoother look.

As per the norm with UE3 titles, we see native 720p resolution on both platforms and an almost exact parity in terms of visual features. There is some small evidence that 2x MSAA is included on the Xbox 360 version, but in common with many UE3 titles it seems that the work on this is carried out relatively early in the rendering process, with subsequent processing killing off much of the edge-smoothing. Certainly, the overall impression when looking at both games (and even the PC version with AA enabled) is that they are effectively running without anti-aliasing at all. Land in the window directly underneath the scaffolding that you get the previous drop spot. It is in the middle section of the tower. The series began in 1999 with Medal of Honor. The game was developed by DreamWorks Interactive, when at the time the studio and series were jointly owned by DreamWorks SKG and Microsoft Games, with the game concept and story created by filmmaker Steven Spielberg. The game was released for the PlayStation on October 31, 1999. [2] Spielberg's inspiration for the series emerged while directing and producing the World War II film Saving Private Ryan to create a game that can concurrently be an educational and entertaining experience.

Away from graphical concerns, the overall level of polish is a real concern. Even after installing the launch-day patch designed to fix the most common issues, we still came across a multitude of bugs. In particular we found ourselves being respawned outside the actual environments, or bizarrely teleported away from walls during a match. Both console versions have their issues here, but PS3 is definitely the less stable version during online gameplay.

Medal of Honor Collection, released on March 6, 2007 for the PlayStation 2, is a set of three games: Medal of Honor: Frontline, Medal of Honor: Rising Sun and Medal of Honor: European Assault.
