First of all you might not notice this, but you get to be Russian, British, and American like most of the call of duty games. This game is very challenging. A machine gunner can shoot at you five times and your health could be half way gone. It's almost like you have lives in this game like the Mario games. You get a life when you complete an objective. Blood, very little. They might as well just rate it T for just violence. You can hardly notice it. Get this game, its' awesome.

What Parents Need to Know
This review of Medal of Honor: European Assault was written by Aaron Lazenby
Parents need to know that this game features plenty of battlefield violence. While none of the killing is particularly graphic (a little spray of blood is occasionally visible), players are asked to gun down scores of enemy soldiers in the course of the game.

More on Medal of Honor: European Assault
What’s the Story?
MEDAL OF HONOR: EUROPEAN ASSAULT focuses on an agent of the Office of Strategic Services, the Naval division that would become the CIA. Players fight their way through the battlefields of the European Theater -- France, North Africa, Russia and Belgium -- undermining German defenses and collecting intelligence on the enemy's new weapons systems. Players also lead a three-man squad to help get the job done, directing them to take cover, engage the enemy, or retreat as the situation demands.
Enemies are more intelligent than in the previous game in this series: They seek cover, use grenades to force players out into the open, and change positions to get a better shot. Expansive level design allows players to get creative in the way they advance toward their goals. Secondary mission objectives give players some stuff to do besides fight their way to the finish line.
CloseIs It Any Good?
This game is on par with the industry's standard approach to WWII shooters: Allow players to kill plenty of enemies, but don't call undue attention to their deaths. Bodies evaporate, leaving only ammo and health power-ups as a memorial. Parents should take some solace in the game's intellectual demands. European Assault moves at a more methodical pace, preventing players from mindlessly rushing enemy positions and rewarding thoughtful, strategic progress.
The game, however, suffers from some problems. Your squad members will stand in the open until enemy fire turns them into a lifeless heap. EA also eliminated mid-level save points, so if you die at an inopportune time, you will have to start over from the beginning of a level. The European setting is dreary and monochromatic, unlike the colorful jungle settings in Rising Sun, and the art direction of EA does nothing to liven it up.

amazing
There is the clash between Medal of honor and Call of duty, some are fans off MoH and some CoD, i for one am a MoH fan, ive tried CoD its fun but doesn't have the same impact on me as MoH, for some reason MoH has an emotional impact on me. The gameplay is super, the graphics arent great, but hey its only a Ps2 game. But i recommend MoH pacific assault the most.
