PC Medal of Honor open beta live

PC gamers today have the opportunity to try out the multiplayer portion of controversial shooter Medal of Honor for free with an open beta.

You can download the client from the official site now.

The open beta runs until 7th October, and will shut down at 11.59 PDT, or 8am BST.

On Friday EA announced it had renamed the Taliban faction from MOH's DICE-developed multiplayer to Opposing Force after negative feedback from soldiers and their families.

The last minute PC open beta was organised to "clear up any misunderstanding" about the Afghanistan setting of the modern war game, EA said.

Tom went hands-on with MOH's multiplayer last month. The game's out for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on 15th October.
