Men of Valor is an historical action experience that portrays infantry combat during the Vietnam War. Combining the latest Unreal technology with the gameplay expertise of 2015 (developers of the award-winning Medal of Honor: Allied Assault), the game immerses the player in the humid jungles of Southeast Asia in the most controversial conflict of the modern era. Men of Valor follows an American Marine through the early stages of the conflict in Vietnam to the Tet Offensive. Touching on the some of the most familiar scenes of the war as they exist in the popular imagination, the player guides his group of fellow soldiers through the hardship and confusion of the battlefield, bonding with them as they do their duty for their country with the heroism and valor typical of the American soldier, but unsung during the turbulent times.

After the battle to maintain a favorable public opinion of the Vietnam War was lost in the States, after the US lost the war itself to the Vietcong and the North Vietnamese, and after a number of developers lost to whatever mysterious force stood between them and making a decent game set in the war, somebody has finally licked the Vietnam curse. Men of Valor is a first-person shooter set in the Vietnam War. And it's good! Those of you keeping score at home through the recent, seemingly unending torrent of disappointing Vietnam War games can dust off the unused "win" column, take the pencil out from behind your ear, and write "1, USA."
Characters have a tendency to pop from one pose to another without any kind of intermediate transition. They also often appear to glide across the ground without moving their legs, and some of the animations are just bizarre--a few of your squad members appear to be experiencing seizures when they're just supposed to be breathing hard.

Men of Valor was developed by 2015, the team responsible for Medal of Honor Allied Assault. That game helped pioneer the heavily scripted, shooting-gallery style of gameplay that has become a staple of the shooter genre, and Men of Valor doesn't stray too far from the formula. Along with the "advance from point A to point B" levels, there are some defensive missions and some on-rails events in both boats and choppers. Typical of the genre, the game is half shooter, half acting exercise, in which you have to hit a series of marks as you advance through impressive but highly choreographed mayhem. Unfortunately, the scripting that drives everything forward is sometimes screwy and brittle. For instance, one particular level takes place in a maze of VC tunnels and ends with a cutscene. If you're not standing in the right place when the scene starts, you'll be killed by an explosion that occurs as the scene ends. What's worse is that until you finally, accidentally stand in the right place, it's not entirely clear what's killing you, which means you may have to replay the level from scratch a few times.
