MOH: Airborne demo falls from the sky Aug 23rd
EA's Medal of Honor: Airborne has been slightly under the radar as of late, with games in the similar war-shooter genre like Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare demanding everyone's attention. So it's only fitting that EA release a demo for MOH: Airborne to prove to everyone that it can hold its own. And that's exactly what they're doing. On August 23rd a MOH: Airborne demo will be released on the XBLM showcasing the campaign level Operation Husky and allow gamers to decide if the latest installment of the Medal of Honor franchise can hold its own. Prepare to jump fanboys, next week we're going Airborne.[Thanks, SRU Platinum]

Medal of Honor goes Airborne in August
Electronic Arts has announced that the newest installment of the Medal of Honor series, Medal of Honor: Airborne, will ship out this August. Specifically, the game will ship August 28th. As many may have guessed from the title, Medal of Honor: Airborne focuses on paratroopers. Levels begin with a combat drop in which players can control their descent, allowing for more free form gameplay. For instance, if you land in a combat hot spot and find yourself instantly overwhelmed, you might try landing in a quieter spot next time. The question is, will the parachute mechanic be enough to lift MOH: Airborne above the bloated WWII genre? After all, it seems like WWIII is the way to go these days.[Via press release]
