ARMA II

Looks cool. Out in 2009. 360 though? It's been a PC game in the past.

It's like BF2 and Flashpoint mixed.

I'll play a demo of it - if there is one - to check it out, but I don't have high hopes.

I can't wait for both of these. Anything that is more realistic and less less arcadish for me is better.

I actually would love to play a 10 hour match with full accurate changing environments.

....as opposed to real time interactive environments? So, all the vehicles (tanks/choppers) in the FP video are only window dressing?

Yea, there is in-game footage and prerendered video. In-game footage usually has first person view and crosshairs, prerendered vids usually dont have xhairs and the characters look real. And yea i think EVERYTHING in the FP vid is prerendered. I dont know if the game actually has playable vehicles tho.

Since when are tactical vehicles operated with running lights on an open battlefield? They should at least be using blackout lights for tactical operations. Sorry, but that kind of thing irritates the G.I. in me.

I can't wait. Everything you guys don't like about it is something I cannot wait for.

It's a simulation of war, which might not be the most fun.

'Shipment' is not a realistic simulation, but fun.
