Of course, previous Medal of Honor titles have featured scripted co-combatants, but very few of them have lasted more than a few feet, and you had little or no influence on them. Still rubbing his eyes (well, they haven't animated that actually), our young charge is thrust into a fight with the locals in his own back garden - darting around and sticking to cover to avoid the attentions of Japanese bullets, as his squad-mates do as Giolito says and take up covering positions and yell orders at one another. The demo begins as the player is dragged out of his bed and informed by the local CO that the Japanese have made a foray into the encampment again, something that Giolito says "happens all the time". "The most important thing to notice here," he says, "is that unlike Medal of Honor games of the past, what you're playing is a squad-based shooter, and you have to work with your squad." But, according to Giolito, technology is by no means the only focus of EA's extensive development effort.

The walkthrough movie focuses on the Henderson Field level in Guadalcanal, and right from the start it's clear that technologically this is no mere expansion for existing Medal of Honor products, with an abundance of high detail models, specular lighting effects and environments and real-time shadowing to name just a couple of things. You can download that from Eurofiles here, or, for the choicest cuts of EA's spiel and our thoughts on it, read on.

Indeed, our best view of this so far comes today in the shape of a 67MB trailer, which features the smiling face of executive producer Rick Giolito as he walks you through the various new features and technology behind EA's "first next-gen PC product". With a few months left until the game's November release target though, we're starting to hear - and, more importantly, see - some of the changes that EA's development team is ringing in. Twice the game has been set back, and now even the demo has been delayed so that the mega-publisher can try and make the best impression possible.
Medal of Honor: Rising Sun was quite clearly a disappointing introduction to the Pacific theatre of World War II, and, despite widespread commercial success, Electronic Arts clearly recognises that its next release, PC title Pacific Assault, will have to do a lot better.
