There are well hidden SNipers on some levels, it is really hard to avoid dying most of the time

I bet the Nazis don't. They do like killing everyone else though.

Medal of Honour on the PC is about 100 times better than Frontline. So if you want a MOH game then get Allied Assault!

I've played previous MoH games and absolutely hated them. Terrible multiplayer, no kind of imagination when it comes to guns, no 'difference' to other WW plots, which could be done, the truth would have to twisted a bit though (or a lot). So what's so good about this game? Be more specific, if the only good thing is shooting Nazi's, then you can have it.

Only if you play it through on Easy and leave it. On Hard/Normal it's a lot more of a challenge, loads more objectives, better A.I., more inventive things you have to do. If you play the Normal mode first on Siberia and then on Easy, you'll be happy you did it on normal. The difference in length and difficulty is immense, plus the boss will take a fair few goes to beat.
I'm ot sure how you say any part of it's rubbish. Challenge mode - fun and original. Arcade league - challenging and long lasting. Multiplayer - superb fun. Story - some great missions, huge difference in levels.
If you thought Goldeneye was good, I have no idea why you don't like this.
> Turok Evolution (quite bad single player which i found hard)

I think where Turok lacks is the Multiplayer. Although the weapons are great, the levels are too small and there's no option to have more com players. As for the one player, it's a actually good. Once you've got past the dire flying sections (which mkes the multplayer even worse is you try it) there's some really good levels. Walking around enemy camps is very atmospheric and builds up loads of tension.
Something terrible I've found about the game is on chapter 5, though. It's either my game or the entire game stops off sort. When you're escaping the Sleg (or whatever you call them) base, I get to room, beat all the nemies, some doors open and I can't walk through them. The other enemies can go in and out freely, but I'm stranded. Like it's got an invisible wall over it.
Anyway, what I'm trying to say, give Turok more credit than that, it may not be brilliant, but it's a good game.

> fantastic weapons)

Another failed attempt by EA is my take on things. After playing through Goldeneye 007 and STILL trying to get 007 difficulty setting, all EA's attempts seem pathetic, which they are. There's the novelty of new gadgets and for the Bond diehards, a whole you storyline to follow, but there's something missing that makes it seem incomplete.
> Die Hard vendetta Poor visuals, no multiplayer, stupid auto aim
> feature

First of all, I haven't played this, but poor visuals? Give me a break. I've seen plenty-a screenshot and plenty-a movie and this game looks superb. Although, really who cares about graphics, such stupid remarks aren't needed.

TimeSplitters2 is by far the best I've played, and Medal of Honour? Pffft, terrible game, terrible series, just another war game, that I hate.

Nightfire is also rubbish. Compared to TS2. And even Turok (:-0).
