Genre: Shooter

Developer: DreamWorks Interactive

System: Sony Playstation

Released: November 11, 1999

MEDAL OF HONOR is set in the middle of World War II. As a member of the Office of Strategic Services department, you're called upon to do your duty and help the Allies win the war. You'll have to infiltrate enemy bases, sabotage equipment, steal documents, and generally foil the Nazi's plans. 

Being an OSS agent doesn't only require you to be handy with a gun, as there will be times when you must go undercover, using forged papers and stolen Nazi uniforms to gain access to areas that are otherwise inaccessible. 

To accomplish these task gamers get to use 12 authentic period weapons including the Tommy gun, potato masher grenades, and the powerful bazooka. 

However, since you are often sneaking around and utilizing your stealth abilities, MEDAL OF HONOR tends to feel more like an adventure game, rather then a straight ahead first-person shooter.

While its retro 2D graphics may have off-put some PlayStation gamers at first, anyone owning a 16-bit system can easily appreciate the greatness of Konami's Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Konami took the side-scrolling idea to its fullest in this title. 

The game's enormous maps, huge range of weapons, constant enemies, and excellent balance all still puts this squarely on the all-time list, no questions asked. 

Add to that a memorable soundtrack and you have a gothic masterpiece that will serve as a benchmark for many future 2D action titles.
