It's Saving Private Ryan meets A Bridge Too Far. Medal of Honor Frontline, a first-person shooter game for the Sony PlayStation 2, puts you among the Allied forces invading Omaha Beach on D-Day and later fighting for control of the Nijmegen Bridge. Your character is charged with stealing the HO-IX flying wing, "an experimental Nazi weapon so powerful that it could turn the tide of World War II."

This historically accurate game involves far more than killing. There are puzzlelike elements, and your ability to be stealthy is key. Graphics are excellent, and sound is amazing: You'll hear bullets whistle past your head, a groan, and a thud—then turn around to see that a member of your squad has fallen. Medal of Honor Frontline offers a solid blend of effects and story line.
