_FUN FACT_ The main villain of this game, Commander Masataka Shima is played by Makoto Iwamatsu. Makoto or "Mako" as he's mostly simply known as was quite a prolific actor in late 20th century films and even did plenty of voice work late in his life. As a kid in the 2000's you may recognize his voice as Aku, in Samurai Jack and Uncle Iroh in Avatar: The Last Airbender.

I remember being a kid asking my Grandma to get me a military shooter game for my PS2 for my birthday. She didn't know anything about video games, so she asked the worker would be a good T rated game because she refused to buy me anything M rated. The worker apparently gave her this game and said, "He's going to love this" and that's how I got my first FPS game. Boy was he right. I obsessed over this game and it opened up my love for WW2 history. I can remember spending hours upon hours just playing the multiplayer with bots because I didn't have online. I remember when COD Black Ops came out everyone was praising how you could play multiplayer with bots and I was like, "Wait, my old game MOH Rising Sun did this 8 years ago" lol Such an underated game.

Even older videogames aren't really accurate especially MOH titles where you're a one man army wiping out enemies. At the end of the day they're games that are focusing more on the entertainment side than the historical one.

Fun fact: the name of the carrier Toshikaze doesn't conform to Japanese carrier naming conventions; Japanese carriers were named for mythical creatures like eastern phoenixes and dragons, while destroyers were the ones that typically had the element -kaze, meaning wind, in their names. Because carriers that were converted from another ship class kept their old names, even when they didn't match up to the convention, the game accidentally implies that Toshikaze is a fleet carrier built on a destroyer hull.

Thank you for this insight! Great little bit of knowledge. I love all sorts of vehicles especially World War Two era ships and am quite fond of the IJN and USN so it's cool to know the Japanese had a naming scheme I just assumed akatsuki and shimakazi were just random words that sounded alike
@sharkface1295 ай бұрын
Yeap, While the Name Toshikaze is definitely a destroyer name by convention, In the subtitles it refers to the ship as "Phoenix 1". I think this hints at an earlier draft of the story possibly referring to this ship as Taihou by name, a ship of a similar type which was sunk due to fuel vapors spreading through the ship and igniting. The name Taihou incidentally meaning "Great Phoenix".

Often it's the other allies, resistance, and North African theater that many don't talk about.

As an adult actually knowing the history it's just crazy how accurately they captured that day. And the accuracy of how the Arizona sank blew me away, and how the gameplay comes to a stop while you witness it sinking just hits on an emotional level many games can't achieve nowadays. "You just be sure you don't forget the ones who didn't" that line hits so much harder, this mission wasn't just an opportunity to experience pearl harbor in a game, but to remember pearl harbor in all it's infamy.

Im loving these series. Needless to say this game is obviously rough around the edges, but still somehow feels so legendary because of the whole presentation value. The artistic direction, while extremely poor and dated in terms of quaity, is just on spot. Nobody should blame you for not finding secrets because some of them are quite convoluted if you dont know where to look, and would require multiple playthroughs to find everything. Conveniently you found the Machete but funny enough didnt know where to use it. Im glad to see that my own wiki entry of the game's secrets slowly proves useful to people. Over the last 12 months i revisited the game on ps2 emu with two main playthroughs around four months appart and after the second one i researched and recorded all i could of the secrets. Then around three months ago i reported everything i found on the games wiki so its information that people will be able to use in the future. It would suck that such gemes with their depth would be left unexplored and undocumented in history. The two main things you are looking for are the machete and the trench tool (a shovel) which is found in the basement of the temple in the doors you couldnt enter. More on that in the wiki.

This and Frontline were my introduction into FPS WW2 games. I played Frontline before this one, but this one I remember so well, even though I last played it around 19-20 years ago when my dad bought it for the GameCube. What a game. The places you get to go, the exhilarating missions. Especially the stealth missions, both Guadalcanal and the one in the port when your operator has a single shot welrod. Incredible. Pistol Pete Showdown was one of the best level designs of any FPS around that time, and the cliffhanger ending to this game always made me so mad. "What do you mean I can't save him?! Or kill the Commander?!" All in all, a wonderful piece of my childhood that I can still remember quite well considering.

I have such nostalgia of having sleepovers with friends in elementary school where we would play 4 player multi-player until the sun came up. Makes me miss being a kid, I tell ya.

I liked how in this game there was many secrets to be found that let you change up the game when you replay missions.

I would like to recomend one game to be added to the list: Men of Valor. It's basically Medal of Honor: Vietnam but not called that (though if it were made today it 100% would've been). It's made by 2015, the same people who made Allied Assault. It's kinda forgotten now, but I do remember the first level where you play football in bootcamp.

I cannot tell you how much I look forward to every upload of your playthroughs lol. This game is pure nostalgia, I remember begging my mom to rent this game for me at blockbuster back in the day. Also, please I hope you continue to play the halo series!! As I'm sure many people do, I get flashbacks of when I was a kid when you play its great 😆

aah!! thanks for returning!! I was just looking at retrospective reviews of this game a few days ago wondering when S0ur will be playing this. This game brought back loads of memories from my elementary school days. I hope you'll be back soon with Pacific Assault. That's another fun one :) :)

Holy crap, my second played, but favourite, classic MoH game. Can't wait to see this. Been waiting for this for so long. I remember spending so long on this game back when I was a kid. Seeing it all again is gonna be a blast from the past. Go get 'em S0ur!

This was literally the first video game i played. My dad had a GameCube he let me and my brother play we literally destroyed this disk playing it so much. I still emulate it and give it a playthrough every year or two. It definitely isn’t perfect at all but the memories of playing it with my brother over and over again ugh it’s just amazing. I think my favorite level is the one where you get the welrod it was just so memorable growing up

Best game in the series! Especially the multiplayer with friends or bots. Also you should've played the PS2 version because it has more content then the Gamecube version.

Oh? Sorry for what I missed. I tried to research console differences quite a bit and couldn't find a bad word about it, but am always limited by trying to avoid watching videos for spoilers. In general I assume Xbox >> GCN > PS2 due to the processing power of the consoles, but GCN often provides a much smoother emulation experience, where the others might stutter or have some issues

@@S0ur the Xbox and PS2 versions has more FMV's but that's about it. Also the PCSX2 emulator nowadays is pretty smooth in general. You can also have a 60FPS patch too.
