so it'd seem..... the propoganda horse is in full stride....but as free stuff goes, this seems pretty good, only availabe within USA tho

Note: sorry to pimp out another game in the purge forum hap, delete it if you want, but i figured, its not a rivial to purge.

After we saw this, we were just saying the other day, how glad we are that we aren't making a Counter-Strike clone. I'm so happy Purge is totally original. Supposedly AA:0 has all its weapons balanced and designed by US Special Forces, so how can you argue with the "realistic accuracy" of these weapons. Like any of us would know how better than US SF about quickly a M16 kills.

Of America's Army: Operations is anywhere near decent, it will won't just C-R-U-S-H all the Counter-Strike clones, but perhaps Counter-Strike itself.

I'm sooooo glad we didn't do a Counter-Strike. Sometimes it feels great when your company collectively makes the right decision.

Well I have to say that it is pretty cheap of them to just keep the game in the US. I mean sure its made by your military but that really shouldn't matter.

Just another thing to add to my ever growing list of things I hate of the US Government.

read the article a little more closely, you'll notice that you never actually get to kill other players, wtf is the fun in that? It'll be like playing a single player fps with stupid TKs to fu.ck you up. =)

Ya I read the article and it looks really interesting. I'll probably be getting myself a copy

.

It does appear to be multiplayer but in all cases you play the US Army. *shrug*

Anyone here think they could somehow get a double copy of the game and ship it over the border?

***LaceyWare*** · May 31st, 2002

Make that two, cos I want one...

***headmagnet*** · May 31st, 2002

well considering how quickly pirated stuff moves you should be able to DL it as soon as it comes out but if either of you have issue getting it let me know, hell i'll just burn you copies of it and mail it.

***Aromanov*** · May 31st, 2002

Well if you could burn a copy that would be great!
