A variety of different characters to play, from navy Seals, to army rangers to the much-vaunted Tier 1 undercover operatives? Check. Even the convincing bilingual radio backchat can't conceal that we're in bog standard territory here, with most of the FPS cliches ready and willing for deployment. However, within minutes you can't help wondering "what's new?" and the answer is – not a lot. To its credit, MoH plays everything – even when laying down covering fire from an Apache gunship – for realism rather than Bond-like spectacle. MoH still starts with the USP of being the most current real-world setting of any FPS, and throwing you straight into the streets of Kabul does add a palpable tension to the opening level. That isn't going to happen now (although you can be sure a modder somewhere is working on it), so we can judge it purely on its merits as a game. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 had it with its brutal Moscow airport massacre level and Medal of Honor was set to top this with the possibility of being able to "be" the Taliban. T here's nothing like a bit of controversy to drum up interest in a shoot-em-up.
