This game is set around the gulf war and it has you controlling a group of four men, you can either chose the british SAS or the American Delta Force.
The AI is meant to be better then any other game before and the game is set for a realease date of May.

So doesnt sound interesting?

Your team consists of four men a sniper, "heavy" and two more which i have forgotten.

what you have is experience levels so if you do about 3 missions and use your sniper man a lot then his aim will get better.
you can spread your team out over the map & they dont have to be told to attack or things like that because the AI is so good.

The graphics look pretty good and the makers said they will make a sequel which will go on the internet.

it also lets you think about moral issues. if you nearly complete a level but a team member is nearly dead some where else what do you do?
do you go back and help him or complete the level?

sounds good and it comes out in May

Please let it be Operation Flashpoint ! That was, in my opinion, the first game to really give the feeling of a war going on around you. The missions are excellent and the graphics good, if not a little glitchy at times, still v.good game though, the variety of vechiles made it special as well.

Your squad members will also use approprriate weapons. If they can take out a number of enemies with one grenade they will. BUT equally if you are in their as well you can be confident they wont throw one if you are in there, it is that realistic.
They wont waste a grenade on just one enemie uness that is all they have left, they will wait for a group of them or throw it at a guard manning a gun emplacement.

The controls are the same as red factions which is brilliant but Pivotal ( the makers ) thought of it first.
so R1 is fire, L1 makes the rest of the crew follow you and then tapping L1 again makes them stop, to make them fire press SQAURE and TRIANGLE activates the interface. oh and CIRCLE triggers crouch, lie down ,and stand up.

each character has a different skill set either SNIPER INFILTRATION ELECTRONICS HEAVY WEAPONARY OR RIFLE MAN.

the otehr members can do them aswell but it is best for you set person to do it.

its a stradgy action game, interesting
