G4TV has posted an article about Medal of Honor. Here is a clip from that article.
Medal of Honor has typically chronicled the wartime campaigns of rank-and-file soldiers, the same sort you'd find on an episode of HBO's Band of Brothers. The reboot seems to move the franchise in a new direction. Medal of Honor will follow at least one, if not more, Tier 1 Operatives, a specialized group of soldier which EA claims is very much real. A Google search reveals little about them other than Medal of Honor headlines, but EA describes them as "the most disciplined, deliberate and prepared warrior on the battlefield" and "a living, breathing, precision instrument of war." In the book Enduring the Freedom, Canadian Joint Task Force member Sean M. Maloney reportedly became part of a Tier 1 unit in Afghanistan, which he described as "hunting high value Al Qaeda and Taliban personnel."
Let's hope EA does this right, and we get a great game and a taste of what these warriors have to go through. The Medal of Honor series has always done games tastefully. And my hope is that they continue that tradition. And not make it into a 1 on 1000 unrealistic game.
