Origin has rotated a new game into their “on the house” program. On tap now is the solid, if oft forgotten Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault.
While not the greatest game in the series, Pacific Assault is a fun romp through the Pacific Theater, of which did not get a huge push in the gaming world of the time.
All you have to do is download the Origin client and sign yourself up for a free account to snag the game. The last game we got was Need For Speed: Most Wanted, so the games that EA are offering regularly are quite good. You can see the game’s description below.
“Set in the Pacific Theatre of WWII, Medal of Honor Pacific Assault represents a unique addition to the award-winning Medal of Honor franchise. Players step into the boots of Marine Private Tom Conlin and feel his shock at the destruction of the American fleet at Pearl Harbor, his growing resolve in the fight for Henderson Field on Guadalcanal, and his triumph at the battle for Tarawa Island. MOH: Pacific Assault combines 7 expansive single player missions covering 25 levels with over 9 new multiplayer maps and includes new locations, new weapons, and new soldiers. Soldiers gain access to over 21 historically accurate WWII era weapons, including M1 Carbines, Japanese Arisaka rifles, and the Type 100 submachine gun. New vehicles including M4 Flamethrower Tanks, and PT boats.”
