This Medal of Honor gameplay video is music to our ears

This first public showing of Medal of Honor: Warfighter gamplay gives us a glimpse of some Tier 1 action in Basilan, Philippines where the team of elite soldiers are tasked with taking down a terrorist force and saving a group of hostages.

The game, built on the Frostbite 2 engine, is due out Oct. 23. Pre-orders of the limited edition, which is essentially the standard edition, get a 40 hour headstart in multiplayer. No, that doesn't mean playing the game for 40 hours before anyone else, it means you get immediate access to the U.S. Navy SEAL Sniper and the McMillan Tac-300 sniper rifle, which takes about 40 hours of gameplay to unlock.

This is pretty much the same footage we saw at GDC, though this time it has a bit of a Reverse Enginears flare to it. What do you think?
