The problems--and they are big problems--are with the A. The vast burned-out cities and dense jungle levels are ambitious in design, but in execution they look drab and simplistic. Convincing outdoor environments are always tough to pull off, but the big green walls, angular trees, and blurry textures in Rising Sun don't come close.
As for enemy behavior, it's so embarrassingly bad at times, it's hard not to laugh. Japanese soldiers don't react to gunshots whizzing by, can often be found inexplicably staring at walls, and slowly spin in a circle when they miss with bayonet attacks, searching for a new target like a broken robot. It's not enough to completely ruin the game, but this kind of lazy execution makes me wonder how much life this franchise has left in it.
Aside from a few moments of forgivable melodrama, Rising Sun handles its Pacific theater setting surprisingly well. From Pearl Harbor to the Philippines to a dense Burmese jungle, the player's progress through the game follows the Allies' path to victory, which is quite cool. Otherwise, Rising Sun is a mediocre affair. Flat backdrops, jagged vegetation, and contrived obstacles destroy any sense of historical immersion.
Characters don't even face you when they're talking to you--they turn to a predetermined direction and recite their lines whether you're nearby or not. And the enemy is entirely predictable, so even the firefights quickly become rote. This tour of duty is fit for serious war buffs only.
Rising Sun's depiction of Pearl Harbor and America's part in the war to follow is on par with a Hollywood feature. On April 26, , the three are sent on a mission to investigate Japanese gold smelting operations in temples in Burma. While there, Raj, their Flying Tigers pilot, is shot down, and they set to work getting him back.
Bromley and his men destroy four AA guns so the a proper air strike can be done, and Tanaka and Joe infiltrate the temples, and rescue Raj. The air strike destroys the gold smelting operation, and the mission is successful. On July 17, , Joe falls out their plane while in Thailand while they are investigating a train with Shima's gold in it. He meets up with Bromley, and they blow up a train full of Shima's gold, but more of it is aboard Shima's supercarrier, so they fly there, and arrive the next day.
Bromley and Joe fight below deck, while Tanaka infiltrates the officer's quarters. Joe and Bromley are gassed and captured after much fighting, and Shima interrogates them. Tanaka manages to free Joe, but is personally killed by Shima. Joe fights through a lot more of the ship, and sees Shima escaping with Donnie in a plane.
Eventually, Joe and Bromley meet on deck, and steal a plane. After several failed takeoffs and shooting down many enemy planes, they get off the ship, and Bromley mourns Tanaka's death, but declares that they will search for Donnie. Medal of Honor: Rising Sun is a first-person shooter. It has two multiplayer modes, Deathmatch: a free for all match, and Team Deathmatch, in which the player can choose teams.
The online multiplayer was one of the more successful elements of the game, coming at a time when online play titles for the PlayStation 2 were not widely available, the online mode attracted and retained a loyal player following right up to its closure in January Show all files.
