In 2005, EA Games digitally released Allied Assault's new material on a separate mini album, which essentially superseded the earlier album release reviewed here. On this one-hour release, which was only available as part of the Allied Assault Deluxe Edition, only 17 minutes were new material composed for Allied Assault. The resulting gap both in the game and on Allied Assault's first score album was filled with tracks from Medal of Honor and Medal of Honor: Underground. This is not so much to do with the quality of his work for the game, but more with the fact that Giacchino didn't write much new music since he was busy creating the score for Medal of Honor: Frontline around the same time.

On album, Allied Assault has always been a bit of a black sheep among Michael Giacchino's Medal of Honor scores. Another quality work, the game continued the franchise's winning streak with critics and audiences alike and is still quoted as one of the highlights of the Medal of Honor series. The Medal of Honor series went the other way after its 1999 debut, the franchise only appeared on home computers in 2002 with its third instalment, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault.

Up until the mid 2000s, most first-person shooter franchises would follow the same path: debut on PC, then at some later stage be ported to a gaming console system.
