Conan £5
14 May
Conan is never going to win any awards for excellence any time soon.

Take to the skies in Medal Of Honor: Airborne, where you’ll drop into gruelling ground attacks in a bid to turn the tide of WWII. Start each mission in the air above Axis controlled battlefields, and then make your mark in the greatest airborne operations in history. Beginning with your jump from a C-47 transport plane, every choice you make can seal your destiny. In the air, manipulate your parachute to choose a landing spot that lends you the best strategic advantage. Trace the green smoke to suggested landing areas where Allied forces will be waiting, or go it alone by landing on rooftops or balconies. But craft your strategy cautiously: every move you make - from your choice of landing spot to the enemies you engage on the ground - will determine your success in the mission, and whether or not you’re genuinely one of the Airborne elite.
