Medal of Honor Debut Trailer »


Electronic Arts has confirmed that its modern-day Medal of Honor reboot will in fact be the first Mature-rated game in the franchise’s history.

Executive producer Greg Goodrich revealed the info in a recent Q&A posted on the game’s official site (via Cinemablend). Judging from the "100% in-game footage" included in the reveal trailer, it’s easy to see why the game will in fact be the most mature of the series.

Of course, this revelation is all the more interesting considering that just yesterday, EA Montreal producer Matt Turner was quoted as saying that the "No Russian" airport sequence in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 "pushed it too far," and that EA "wouldn’t have done it."

How EA Los Angeles will earn their Mature rating remains to be seen, but as Goodrich said in the Q&A, "We will always be grounded by our core tenets of authenticity and respect for the soldier." Guess we'll find out if the "authentically M-rated" approach works out for EA when the game is released in the fall of next year.

    i doubt it both gamestop and gamespy said they anticipate the game to target a teen rating i seen the trailer and the blood doesnt look to gracious or anything.Linkin park is supposed to be in their soundtrack so i doubt linkin park wants to ruin their radio friendly image by being in a teen game.

    seriously though why is it so hard to make a war game that doesnt blow my mind up with explosions... how about a modern warfare game thats actually modern? where your in iraq or afghanistan clearing house to house or hill to hill getting hit with roadside bombs not knowing who the enemy is and dealing with women and children... (THERES a thought if a game wants to be realistic and deal with emotions lets put children in because despite popular belief they do in fact die every day in war) instead of shooting everything that moves. How about 6 days in falluja (or however its spelled) actually gets made instead of shut down by i dont know who

    you seriously think its at all similar to iraq? are you serious? no... iraqs a pos country with an army worth about 14 coconuts. We can do that because we're america and what we say goes. The russians got a hold of one satellite so we dont have radar? and they invade.... successfully? With no prior bombing or missile strikes? Yeah its red alert 2 it makes sense. NO that is not what would happen ever at all no matter how many airports we shot up. If they want to hate on america how about they make a game where your in a pos country fighting off invaders instead of a horribly drafted and poorly thoughtout story about how russia invades WWII style

    Well if people are going to say that this is a rip-off of MW 2, then couldn't you say that MW is a rip-off of BF 2 or even Ghost Recon? They're all modern, so that must mean they copied it. This how ridiculous it sounds when people say this is a rip-off of MW 2. Get over it people, this is the type of combat that there is now-a-days. It's not some concept that was created by Infinity Ward.

    despite the fact that the MoH series predates the CoD series, activision's success with the latter series is thus far a big focus in peoples minds, particularly considering the fact that the MoH series hasnt been this successful in a long time. And they just announced that theyre updating it to modern times weeks after the release of modern warfare 2, and news of it's success, so yeah heavy comparisons will be made. hopefully this is agood thing, something that will force both EA and infinity ward to keep producing quality games of this ilk.

    To me honestly looks like a fresh new start seriously you can say it might look like a Call of Duty ripo off but until i dont play the game im not saying that its bad because it really looks how they described it a squad beyond enemy lines and it also looks like it will have some intense moments that are pretty realistic if you ask me like at the endo of the trailer take that as an example

    @ people who think that MW2's story is "unrealistic". I feel this needs to be corrected. Think about it, a terrorist attack on nation A's citizens (involving airplanes no less) causes nation A to retaliate against nation B who is percieved to be responsible... who does that sound like? I know that's the story of the videogame but its also the story of what happened on 9/11. the story of MW2 was meant to put us in the shoes of the invaded rather than the invaders. So while I'm sure that an actual invasion by russia isn't likely, that's not what they were going for, they were trying to make us think about our current situation by flipping it on its head, rather than just showing the abhorities of war (which I'm sure will be the focus of the new MoH title).

    @R3LF_13 and any1 else who thought that mw2's story was "unrealistic:

    LMAO dudes you have no idea what you are talking about. think about it, a terrorist attack involving airplanes causes a country to retaliate on the country that is assumed to be responsible... who does that sound like? oh right, it sounds like what happened with 9/11, except instead of being the invaders, were the ones being invaded. the story of mw2 is meant to put us in the shoes of the middle easterners. which actually has a titan's grip on, you know, reality. Maybe you should stick to playing games like kung fu panda, you know, games whose story is more understandable to someone of your intellectual level.

    game looks alright, hopefully it will be more healthy competition and less, just EA trying to make money off of stuff that's hot right now.

    Am I the only person who gets seriously annoyed when people call Modern Warfare 2, COD6? First of all your not saving any time typing COD6 over MW2. Secondly there is no 6 in the title at all. If your just counting CoD iterations, then you would be up to like 9 or 10 including all of the non Infinity Ward ones made for last gen consoles and PC. All of this b*tchin I've been doing has got me so worked up I'm gonna go let off some steam playing Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2 "For The Record".

    Looks great. Few years ago most games in the shooter genre were based in the World War II setting. I really enjoy the modern setting and hope more game companies and franchises make the move as well. :)

    I've never had a problem with MoH but I am not liking what I have seen of this game, the graphics really arn't that great, and it is obviously a rip of MW to try and compete.
