Before Call of Duty, there was Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, and before Allied Assault, there was plain old Medal of Honor. Although EA's World War 2 shooter had its heyday storming the beaches of Normandy on PC, it was originally a PlayStation exclusive series, preceding Halo's popularisation of the genre on console by a whole two years.
I remember Medal of Honor being both clunky as hell and like nothing else I'd ever played when I first encountered it at the age of 11, and those memories came flooding back thanks to Medal of Honor: Retro Remake. Created by developer Elber88 and released for free on itch, it’s a ground-up rebuild of the 1999 original that finally brings the FPS to PC.
