10 Single-Player Video Games With Insanely Underrated Multiplayer Modes

5. Medal Of Honor (2010)

Released in the middle of Call of Duty: Black Ops and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - albeit the latter came out half a year earlier - Medal of Honor never really had a bright future, which is a shame, because this 2010 incarnation was truly better than most gave it credit for.

The first Medal of Honor game in three years, this brought the series into a modern setting for the first time - one that was absolutely on fire at the time. Not to mention the online portion was being headed by EA DICE, those responsible for Battlefield, so it's safe to say it was in good hands.

At the time, Call of Duty and Battlefield were on top of the FPS genre. Call of Duty had tight maps with killstreaks while Battlefield had large maps and class specific loadouts. There were COD fans and Battlefield fans with no in-between. Medal of Honor however managed to bridge the gap, combining both Battlefield and Call of Duty play styles seamlessly into one.

Medal of Honor featured class based gaming, just like Battlefield, but did it on smaller scale maps like Call of Duty. This of course led to faster paced games.

On top of this was a score chain (sound familiar?) that let players who stayed alive and scored kills trigger either an offensive or defensive support buff. Medal of Honor doesn't get the credit it deserves for what it was trying to do for the FPS genre in 2010, instead forced to live in the shadows of its competition that are both still going strong today.
