EGTV: Exclusive MoH trailer

Airborne's all about choice.

Today's matinee movie on Eurogamer TV is an exclusive look at Medal of Honor: Airborne.

It shows us how EA's next-gen war effort is planning to take the genre one step further, by using the element of choice. You see, you don't have to start a mission or encounter in one particular area. Instead you can parachute down to any location you please.

You might want to land away from the action and sneak around to perform a flanking manoeuvre, or perhaps securing the top of a building for better vantage point would be your best choice. But then there's always the option of occupying a flare site for a more constant stream of supplies, or taking control of an artillery position to support your troops. The choice is yours.

It's all looking rather shiny, too.

Medal of Honor: Airborne is in development for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. All three versions are due to launch on 31st August.

Head over to our Medal of Honor: Airborne gallery for a look at the latest and exclusive screenshots.

And don't forget that trailer on Eurogamer TV.
