A demo of Medal of Honor: Airborne, the latest in EA's everlasting gobstopper of World War 2 games, has been released. Nab it now locally from AusGamers; it's a reasonably priced 1.3gb download.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet been hanging for this for months!

A demo BEFORE release is the best way to do things, EA have finally scored a + in my books.

Those cards posted above are pretty s***etastic, its no wonder they aren't supported. Even if they were it'd run so crap it'd be hardly worth attempting to play.

Well the demo runs like complete ass on my machine for some reason. I'm getting like 1 frame every 10 secs and that's just on the title screen. I've tried putting the settings on low just to be able to get into the main options area but it still runs like a two dollar hooker. Considering I'm running an Athlon 6000 dual core and an 8800GTS it should run smooth as.

Oh well. Easy come easy go. LOL.

I am impressed to say the least :o

Looks fantastic.
Ran smooth as on my PC.
Use of motion blur looks sweet.
Chuting in wherever is great and takes out linear play completely - can do any objective whenever.
New ironsight cover controls take a bit of getting used to but best in any FPS so far imo.

My only criticisms so far, pretty sure AA was off and I couldn't see any settings to turn it on ingame. They also need to get a new menu designer, that s*** looked horrible like a 5 min rush job, it could just be for the demo but I doubt it.


Very keen to see how this plays in MP.

Rev, did you install the beta drivers for the Bioshock demo? If so, that may be the problem. I'm running the current normal drivers released July22.

Its worth getting this thing running well. It looks and plays very well.

I am running the latest beta drivers (although vista64) and have experienced no probs.

I installed the latest drivers from nvidia.com and they work fine in all my other games, well WoW anyway. That's the only game I have on my machine atm since deleting Bioshock.
