Item Description

The war starts below decks on the USS California on the morning of December 7, 1941, as Marine Joseph Griffin is caught in the attack on Pearl Harbor. Fighting his way off that ship and out into a harbor full of burning hulls and attacking aircraft makes for a dramatic opening, and it sets the tone for Medal of Honor: Rising Sun, EA Los Angeles's move from the European theater to the war in the Pacific.

From there Griffin's war moves fast: a mission at the Calumpit Bridge in the Philippines, a midnight raid on a Guadalcanal airfield and a hunt for the Japanese artillery the Marines called Pistol Pete, then infiltration in Singapore, gold-smelting temples in Burma, a train in Thailand and a final push aboard an enemy supercarrier. Running through it is a personal story, with Griffin's younger brother Donnie, a Marine demolition engineer, lost after the Philippines mission, and a trail of hoarded gold tying the later missions together. Period stock footage and unlockable interviews with Pacific veterans give the campaign a grounding in real history.

There is a two-player co-op take on the campaign that lets a friend fight alongside you through the same story, and offline multiplayer supports up to four players with optional AI bots to fill out the field. Christopher Lennertz's orchestral score won an Interactive Achievement Award for Outstanding Achievement in Original Music Composition, and it gives the jungle firefights and naval set pieces a big, cinematic sweep.

Reviews were mixed, and the planned sequel that would have continued Donnie's story was cancelled, which leaves Rising Sun as the Medal of Honor series' Pacific campaign on the GameCube, cliffhanger and all. In a GameCube shooter collection it is the one that trades Normandy hedgerows for Guadalcanal jungle, with a Pearl Harbor opening that makes an immediate impression.
