Well...yes, all of them! The first PC Medal of Honor, Allied Assault, was my favourite. Those beach landings we're something stunning.

Now as for Rising Sun, that was a shockingly bad game!

The graphics for this looked stunning on the videos I've seen, but never bothered playing them in the past, a bit too repetitive... and scary.

Personally I'm sick to death of WWII games. The only WWII game I'm going to bother with is the new Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway. Not only do the graphics look amazing but the gameplay looks like it's on a different level than other FPS's.

I adored the first Brothers In Arms title - it felt much like what I'd hoped Full Spectrum Warrior was going to play like.

Call of Duty 4 has moved away from WWII, so it looks like the age of the shooter based on that particular conflict is coming to a close.

CoD4 looks good and I really like that Infinity Ward has moved away from WWII's, I may get it if the online multiplayer in Halo 3 turns out to be rubbish ... doubt it though, seeing as I enjoyed the beta!

That reminds me - I've the Call of Duty 4 beta to try! Not sure if Gamespot or Eurogamer have any keys left if anyone missed out.
