Game Overview

Step into the boots of Frank Keegan, Corporal of the 82nd Airborne Division and engage in battles throughout Europe. From Operation Husky on the shores of Sicily to Operation Varsity inside Nazi Germany, you’ll fight behind enemy lines in the epic WWII battles that turned America's first paratroopers into heroes of WWII. Medal of Honor Vanguard makes you the driving force in the struggle to liberate Europe.

The Good

Gameplay is decent, if unremarkable.

The Bad

It's another WWII FPS, Sloppy hit detection makes shooting big guns unsatisfying, Parachuting adds nothing to the game.

Step into the boots of Frank Keegan, Corporal of the 82nd Airborne Division and engage in battles throughout Europe. From Operation Husky on the shores of Sicily to Operation Varsity inside Nazi Germany, you'll fight behind enemy lines in the epic WWII battles that turned America's first paratroopers into heroes of WWII. Medal of Honor Vanguard makes you the driving force in the struggle to liberate Europe.
