Trivia
Steven Spielberg got the idea of making this game while filming Saving Private Ryan (1998).

Goofs
On the map of the Schmerzen fortress, there is a location called 'FG42 Tower'. The FG42 is an automatic weapon produced by Nazi Germany, not an anti-aircraft cannon.

Quotes
[says it near the end of the second intro cut-scene]
Col. Stanley Hargrove: Electronic Arts and Dreamworks Interactive presents, "Medal of Honor". Prepare for your "finest hour".

Crazy credits
The DreamWorks logo has the fishing boy throw away his rod for a rifle, put on a helmet and parachute off the moon... only to get stuck on a crescent edge.

The music also briefly becomes a military tune.

Sensational, great fun!!!

This game is so perfect that I'm at a loss for words.

The first time I popped the MOH-disc into my old Playstation it almost brought tears to my eyes! It was like witnessing history in the making as the A.I. of these opponents totally blew me away. I couldn't believe my eyes, not to mention my ears! A fantastic soundtrack complete with first rate sound f/X add to the richest atmosphere I've ever experienced in a first-person shooter!

I've played countless first-person shooters on the computer since Wolfenstein 3D appeared a decade ago, and despite all the Doom's, the Quake's and the Duke Nukem's on the PC the psx's MEDAL OF HONOR ranks #1 in my book (something I didn't think possible as I always felt the genre was more suited for the PC). Now I finally know how Clint Eastwood must have felt when mowing down his opposition in WHERE EAGLES DARE!

A game worth playing over and over again, and despite it's great sequel UNDERGROUND I find myself returning to the original time and time again.

A bona-fide wet dream for the first-person addict!
