Advantages: Rather cheap now

Disadvantages: Very short

Let me first start off by saying that I have never been into the WWI/II gaming area of FPS but I have to hand to EA they have introduced me very well into this genre that is both entertaining and (if the facts are true) quite educating also.

First off though we'll talk graphics and I think personally they are better than that of COD4 or even, dare I say it, on par with GTA4. I have to hand to EA, they've done a superb job with both the engine and gaming experience. There are a few buggy things (as always) like dead soldiers arms growing really long and somehow sticking to walls, very odd. All that aside though, EA have come up trumps with this game giving the user some great entertainment at a great price.
I think now that the FPS genre seems to be the most popular by far of any computer gaming genre ever from Halo to Call of Duty and Far Cry 2, there is a lot to choose from and to suit all tastes. MoH: Airborne is well placed in the genre of FPS and defiantly rises to the challenge of epic games like Call of Duty 4 and WaW.
I would also like to ask the question most would ask, and that is: is the game worth the purchase? Well for the money yes but not something I would recommend. First off I am not a great fan of EA, they generally produce short games of poor quality and at high prices. The most important thing to note is that the game is monumentally short and took me about four 3hr sittings to finish the game which is really rubbish for any game. But, however, after all this doom and gloom you can pick it up for £8.99 on Amazon (quote: 0100hrs, 16/07/2009 on amazon.co.uk) which is not bad at all considering the current economic climate.
Why the sudden change of heart I hear you cry? I like the game, it's just that I don't like the length plus certain other aspects. I do have to congratulate EA for the amazing graphics and the great way they have introduced me into the WWII FPS genre, of which I am now an avid fan.

So to summarize, for the price it is great and will keep you entertained for a bit but those little bugs and some poor map programming are not as good as COD4 but it does not have the constant respawn problem that COD4 had/still has. For the money I would get it to pass the time being un-employed but if you are a hard-core WWII FPS computer gamer I do not feel this is what you would be into.

Summary: The best EA game i have seen
