Medal Of Honor Frontline song - Arnhem Knights

[@Furrden]

My friend Tommy and I used to play this together and we could never beat the last level. We were so close. Years past and we almost forgot about the game. Tommy passed away in 2015. In his honor and to continue his legacy, me and my brother finished the level for him. I swear I felt his presence in the room when we beat the level. To this day I remember my brother and I screaming at the top of our lungs when we beat it. My mom came downstairs thinking something was wrong when we told her we beat it for Tommy we all broke down in tears. Thank you Tommy for all the good years we had together.

The saddest thing about these words is to see that they have really become empty over the years, nowadays they are just games, forgettable, without the commas.. 😢 While these, memorable and unforgettable even after years, you listen the track and remember at the time which game and level was played, showing the level of quality and attention they really had with the games, everything was lost, now they are all more of the same, without emotion, without realism, dull and nothing memorable.

williamthebrit yeah that's true. Old MoH games were often you vs the German army all by yourself or assisted by a few NPC's

[@quimble2177]

williamthebrit well yes. But to me a good WWII game makes sure you know you're part of a squad, that in that squad you are a group of brothers. Most games don't give you time to get that feeling. They just kill them off and you end up not caring because you didn't know them long. For a good WWII game the story should go over...hmm 2 or 3 games, make the characters as human as possible, get you (the player or anyone) emotionally attached to them and then, if the Deva want, get rid of them. Basically I'm saying I want a call of duty, brothers in arms hybrid....or just another brothers in arms really.

[@MJFisAnOverratedBagel]

No other Level in a WWII Shooter has made me feel more immersed in what was going on during this time period than Arnhem Knights. The music hits you & provokes thought, the Level itself puts you in a almost unwinnable situation amidst the eerie & sombre backdrop of war-torn downtown Arnhem.

[@grant3933]

Definently. The music is sombre because at this point in Market Garden, the airborne troops weren't fighting to take their bridge objectives anymore, they were fighting to survive and break out of a German encirclement from airborne, SS and armoured divisions with no support or heavy weaponry because the operation had failed and the British XXX corp couldn't cross the bridges to reinforce them.

[@goldbullet50]

I loved how in the earlier level, the environment was relatively intact, but once you enter the city, everything is in ruins.

[@featherfall1211]

This mission really impacted me as a kid.. Going from abandoned house to abandoned house. Seeing the effect this war had on such a common looking neighborhood, all while you walk alone. Just you, your gun, and your wits as the desolate pristine neighborhood gives way to shelled out brick buildings, the sound of gunfire and the cries of those fighting and dying... Really hit me hard.. I've never been quite as immersed by a game since..

[@Bombardier017]

This is one of the reasons I enjoy Medal of Honour more than most other Shooters. While Call of Duty, Battlefield and Resistance are all more entertaining in terms of gameplay, I never really connected with the characters. Thus, cared less if they died. This franchise is one of four that's been able to make me feel more than rage for my defeats or joy for my victories.

[@Eagle249]

I enjoy Call of Duty multiplayer (especially zombies), but that's about it. From Call of Duty 4 onwards, I didn't care for their campaigns. To me, it's just six hours of helicopter crashes and buildings falling over. Also, why continuously pick out Russians as the bad guys? What year is this, 1983?

[@CptSchmidt]

You did get this with Call of Duty, but the last good COD game was United Offensive. It's been a steady death since, with the exception of COD4 (Modern Warfare). Every other COD after the first and its expansion didn't feel like COD, and I haven't played or bought the game since WAW, which was the last straw for me.

Walking through that desolate city with nothing but you and your gun. Only a couple of soldiers to help you and they don't last. The feeling of isolation and everything resting on your shoulders was fantastic in this game. Where are these games now?

[@someamateur2853]

TotallyToonsTV Loaded onto the PS3! I'm not sure we will ever see games like this again, but if we do it will be fantastic. The amazing part is, the graphics weren't state of the art, most characters hardly spoke, and there wasn't a three page bio/back-story on those that did, but you felt a connection to many of the characters and small story moments anyway. The game didn't glorify war, or make speeches on its horrors, it just places you in an area with a mission and some nameless soldiers, and allows you fill in the rest.

[@tysswe1]

TotallyToonsTV And the sound of distant gunfire. This was magical to play as a kid.

[@chillinchum]

TotallyToonsTV Am I the only one here who recently replayed this game and found the only thing really memorable about it was this song? I knew what I felt as a kid, and that was good, but I feel like another game that tightens things up from this would be far superior. the level this song was in was difficult, but I don't feel like it's a very fair difficult, and that it's more of a crap-shoot. Unless of course that's the entire idea, but, something still feels off about the level's music being somber, but not me feeling somber with it, instead I feel annoyed while trying to get to the end. I know for a fact the bullet spongy enemies have something to do with it at least. I'm just iffy and on the fence about the whole thing that maybe it's just that it's getting rather aged, again, going back to the idea of someone cleaning it up would make it significantly better for today.

The music just broke me down.. The horrors of war, the loss, destroyed lives, destroyed homes, killed innocents, killed young soldier, for what cause ? That was horrible, the WW2 was horrible. The life is sometimes horrible. But we must push on. We must endure, we must bring justice and common sense even if it means destruction. Such horrible choices makes us unclean.

You hit the nail on the head saying that WWII was overdone - even my teenage self became acutely aware of just how much WWII was being spammed a few years back.

Grew up always playing "army" with my friends, listening to this song, playing the missions and many other historic war games like this one...sung to the patriotic side I had as a child. Needless to say I'm enlisted now and probably deploying within the year after a few years in. Amazing how time changes but my mind never did, If you asked me as a kid what I wanted to do when I get older I'd tell you the same thing as I'm doing now. Beautiful how something like a video game or a song can bring out your inner patriotism. This song always brought a tear to my eye because it always made me think about those who fought before me, so that I could willingly enlist on my own free will and aspire to be as amazing as these men.

[@sleeming88]

Wtf I never realized that this is Dutch and live next to the border

[@iwtkc]

what those lyrics are real? I cant believe it. I was born 15km away from Arnhem and never knew this were the lyrics.. Maybe the italian producer tried for a different accent, Ive always loved this song and never knew this thank you.l

It's finals week. I'm sick as a dog, staring down three finals and a paper and this music pops into my head. I guess my subconscious considers this a desperate, losing fight...

I see many comments from years ago, I feel to add my 2 cents. I'm the youngest of 3 brothers, all of whom were fascinated by world war 1 and 2. My eldest brother enlisted in the SA Army then later in the airforce. I too became obsessed with war history, the effects of lives taken, the aftermath on those who survived, families saved and not saved. When I played this game as a kid/teenager and more so the mission Arnham Knights, i felt fully immersed with this song playing in the background, it always touched me to my core. As I grew up I my interest just kept growing, from watching every movie, documentary, war footage, reading books that I consider myself a student of historical war. But today I am finally able to understand why i felt so moved by this song/anthem. Thank you to all who has been able to shed light on what the true meaning behind this song is. All brothers in arms, fallen and not, i will always remember. To give your life willingly. We should all really earn, the sacrifice so many made for us, to live in a free world. Thank you🫡🙏🏻

The music was so moving that I had to stop what I was doing and just sit down and cry. This was beautiful.

[@christopherleidenfrost1280]

I remember playing this on PS2, and hearing this with the crackle of gunfire in the distance and mortar rounds whistling in the air. All the while I was trying to keep all my allies alive on the hardest difficulty only to see them cut down by snipers, mowed down by an mg42, or blown up by a tank. Feels bad man :(

Working retail during Thanksgiving Shopping Season and this came into my head out of the blue. Panzers are approaching lads, courage now.

[@Ascencia]

I grew up playing this game on my Nintendo Gamecube, must have been less than 9 years old.. I'm 16 now, to think it was that long ago is just insane. There didn't need to be any action-packed Multiplayer experience, with people flying all over the place in Exo-suits. Just me spending hours playing the campaign over and over, and it never got old. I wish they'd remaster this for PC at least, just so that we can re-live the good ol' days. The FPS genre really needs another AAA WW2 - themed game soon.

[@Trollbane96]

I agree. This game was my thing in the early 2000s and the PS2 era. I would like to see a Korean War themed FPS sometime as well. Im surprised there isn't any by now..

[@CalDal_22]

im in the same boat as you pal :D

[@n00btub3r2012]

I had this game on GameCube and later for PS2. I bought this game for the Xbox to play on my Xbox 360 and I got hit with so much nostalgia

[@nickpaternostro2611]

I'm 17...when I hear the soundtracks to this game, I close my eyes, I am about 5-7 years old and sitting in front of my television. This brings me back easier than any picture, home recording, or memory ever will. This game wasn't just a game. It was beautiful. This was artistic integrity. We can't find anything like this anymore. You have to appreciate these things, because it isn't around anymore. Just hearing the classic GameCube startup music takes me right back to when I first got one at age 4. Man, what I would do and give to go back to those years...cheers!

[@CandaEH]

This game came out in 2002.... wtf were u doing playing it? You were 1 year old!

[@jawesomes6939]

80 years ago as of today, an entire group of souls from all walks of life came together on a beach in Normandy, France all with one goal in mind. To save the world from a dark future so that all people could be free. Some didn’t make it home and made the ultimate sacrifice but every person who was on that beach gave something that day to ensure the free world could be a better place for our children. We honor their bravery with the hope no other generation will have to repeat it.

[@Dankdalorde]

Totally listening to this on my last day at work. COVID-19...who would’ve thought this would be happening on this day. Much love and prayers for everyone e-my heart weeps out for everyone, past and present. I hope we all find our eternal peace. RIP to those who have lost their lives and RIP to all of the people I’ve lost along the way. One day we will have our Nirvana.

[@nickpaternostro2900]

Even today, I enjoy this game more than any modern shooter. The missions were superb, the plot was outstanding, and the music was amazing. My Dad and I use to play this all the time. Our favorite track was "Escaping Gotha". This music brings back so many memories.

Now I'm 18, I get all the references to countless films crammed into this game. One of the best PS2 games in my humble opinion and the best game of my childhood.

[@Headshot51423]

Sometimes I would kinda just roam around the map listening to this instead of actually playing the mission. It was almost eerie how quiet it would be listening to this but hearing the occasional German soldier yelling or shooting. I wish I could go back to those days.

[@REAPER21300]

This song is a heartbreaker... totally, i remember me being completly surprised crying during i was playing Arnhem knights mission... A fucking great game, i miss games like this one who had a true soul and submersed completly gamers, thank you to share this soundtrack it's just awesome :)

Fun Fact: A snippet of this plays in Medal of Honor Airborne as you drop from the plane in one of the levels, I don't recall which level, but having played this game first, then hearing that snippet made me happy.

[@nechector]

Even though I was around 14 I remember I felt that playing through a FPS level with that soundtrack in the background was eerie. And today, 25 years later, I still clearly remember the 2 allied soldiers, the BAR, the ruines, the colors, I remember a lot about this level. All thanks to this track

The sunken road part of the level between two houses where your allies are being shot. I remember just unleashing the BAR at the enemy whilst this song blared through the speakers. I was 13 when this game came out and I remember nearly being brought to tears with the realisation that this wasn’t a fiction game. But brave men really went through it. The song just captivates the emotion. Such sacrifice.

@@Bullet-Tooth-Tony- Technically, yes. The quote is from Morgan Shepherd's narration at the end of the Market-Garden missions in the game. I'm hazy on how far allied soldiers fell back after the operation fell apart, but if you read Band of Brothers the 506 PIR were one of the few, and quite possibly only, unit that held the Germans on "their side of the Rhine" as of late October. Captain Winters's ambush of the SS units was on 25 October if I remember right, and Easy Company helped evacuate what remained of the Red Devils out of Arnhem a little later.
