There is no doubt that MOH:AA helped(to say the least) create the WWII shooter surge. So how come everything they put out is such crap since?

sir, your poll question is in the present tense . it should be phrased to show the correct tense as in ''why has EA continued to allow medal of honor to suck so bad'' .

Its my opinion that after AA they tried to implement more and more into the game which just added to the confusion and created a sub enjoyable experience. I like the feel of being alone in a game, me against the baddies, creeping around a bombed out town at my own pace, come across a group of baddies, wipe em out, hit f5 smoke a cig and continue has been lost in the newer games.
I've said it before but if you love AA as much as I did your gonna like Iron Storm. Get past the difficult start and the game is great.

It works on my amd dual 4400... I guess it could be using just one of them, but that wouldnt measure up to the specs.
Anyway, I really think its a mixture of most of the options, EA hasnt been innovative on anything in a long time, nor are they much interested in 'communities' except when it comes to the Sims. 2-12 players just screams 'console', wonder if it will change with dedicated servers.

I don't know about the demo, never tried it. My buddy has the game and I borrowed it from him. If your a big SP fan its got some great levels.
