EA SHIPS HIGHLY ANTICIPATED MEDAL OF HONOR
FRONTLINE FOR THE PLAYSTATION 2
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – May 29, 2002 – Keep
your head down and your morale high as you storm the beaches of Normandy to
defeat the dreaded Nazi scourge. EA today announced that Medal of Honor
Frontline has shipped for the PlayStation2 computer entertainment system under
the EA GAMES brand.
Head back behind enemy lines with Lt. Jimmy
Patterson in Medal of Honor Frontline. In this latest installment of the
award-winning Medal of Honor series, Lt. Patterson returns and must use the
confusion of the real-world offensive Operation Market Garden to infiltrate the
German frontline and steal the HO-IX flying wing, an experimental Nazi weapon so
powerful that it could turn the tide of World War II.
Staying true to the legacy that started with
the original Medal of Honor, the producers sought council from numerous outside
sources to make certain the game is as historically authentic and realistic as
possible. Hollywood veteran Capt. Dale Dye, who served as technical consultant
on the original Medal of Honor, Medal of Honor Underground, and Medal of Honor
Allied Assault, again worked with the Medal of Honor Frontline team to certify
the authenticity of the game.
Medal of Honor Frontline for the PlayStation2
console carries a "T"(Teen) rating from the ESRB and will be priced at US MSRP
$49.99. Medal of Honor Frontline was developed by EALA.
