...by Charles Cyphers) to ask the officers at the precinct for assistance.
The trouble soon starts at the station when Lawson barges through the doors, unable to tell anyone what was happening.
Within minutes the station is under fire, bullets and glass flying everywhere, the people inside the station unable to call for help?there only hope for survival is to fight their way out?but with limited ammunition and no hope of rescue there chances are slim?.

Advantages: Lot's of action Disadvantages: Tired plot, cop cliches

Laurence Fishburne as Marion Bishop
Gabriel Byrne as Duvall

Advantages: Very real looking and sounding game Disadvantages: none
...I bought Medal of Honour: Allied Assault (2 discs) for my boyfriend the very first day it came out, as he had been ranting on about it for ages. He had already played the game on the playstation and loved it so I knew it would be a good buy.
I payed 34.99 for it from Electronics Boutique and up to now I dont regret the buy at all as my boyfriend has been on it every single day and enjoying every minute of it (in fact he is playing on it right this minute).
First of all I will tell you the minimum system requirements as there is no point in even buying the game if your PC is too slow:
*OS: Windows 95/98/2000/ME/XP.
*Processor: 450MHz (Intel pentium 2).
*Memory: 128MB RAM.
*Hard Drive: 1.2 GB.
*CD-DVD: 8 Speed.
*Graphics: 16MB.
*3D Accelerator: OpenGL Compatible.
*DirectX: Version 8.0.
*Multiplayer: 1 CD per PC.
*Network...
