REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS - News) announced that Medal of Honor Vanguard(TM), the latest installment from EA's critically-acclaimed Medal of Honor(TM) franchise, which has been credited with pioneering the First-Person Shooter (FPS) WWII genre when it debuted in 1999, has shipped to store shelves nationwide.
