Of course, these days, in order to run a decent game with sweeet graphics, one needs a heck of a gaming machine and not just the lame ol' horse that one has been draggin along for a couple o' years now! :p

I had PS1, My bro bought PS2...chances r my bro is going to buy PS3 when the price comes down & surplus games are available.

Never been big fan of X-Box.

But the lates games on PS2 incredible...check out the new Cricket games "Brian Lara International Cricket" & "EASports Cricket 2005". They are abt to be released in couple of months. Its like your watching cricket match on TV, just a bit difference in graphics when it comes to games & reality.

Pakistan and cricket can't be separate ;)

Try the Act Of War: direct action. it's a strategy game with real weapons such as marines, M2A1 bradley, abrams and my favorites, global hawk UAV carrying maverick.

Any1 here see battlefield 2? Interesting game. You can play as 3 forces. US, China, and the middle east coalition. All weapons are real. (though their specs might be wrong at places, like chinese type 99's laser dazzler on the t-90). The middle east coalition is basically the russian military if it had funding. There are j-10s, f-22s, b-2s, su 27s, su 34s, t-90s, everything down to the ak 47, m16 and the type 95.

First of all, sorry for restarting the thread :)

My choices go:

Land sim: Undoubetly Operation Flashpoint (both all land forces + choppers are perfectly realistic). Not only the "basic" game, you can download several mods and addons to make it even more realistic and give this game an everlasting lifetime. I like especially the "FDF mod" which gives you more reallistic corrections to the game like weapons recoil, being blown away by exlplosions when not too close but not far enough, reallistic sounds etc...
Plus the second part is coming called "Armed Assault" at beggining of 2006.
If you want to get the first game it's I think only like 15 bucks max.
Btw: that's where the USMC got their "VBS 1": virtual battle space (with current mods/addons Operation Flashpoint is almost same as the VBS)

Also in this category: SWAT 3 and 4. I prefer SWAT 3 for its more realistic ballistic but the 4th has undoubetly more features.

Naval sim: Sub Command (sub sim). A very nice modern simulation of current submarines, "starring" the US Seawolf, the US Los Angeles and the Russians Akulas.
But I like also the Silent Hunter serie.

Air sim: Falcon 4.0 with the new updates by its community making it almost a Falcon 5.0!
I also like the Combat Flight simulators (yes again WWII).

Try Americas Army. I think it is the best FPS Army/Military Game ever made. The best is that it is completely free to download. It is better than counterstrike. It is every Military Enthusiat's dream. U get to lead a squad of US army soldiers or be a part of it in a wide range of online missions. The graphiucs r awesome and the weapons r very well designed. The game keeps every battlefield detail in mind. I suggest this game to all of you. Check it out or download at

Tried it already :) But isn't even half good as Operation Flashpoint (not graphism but realism, extra features, liberty to go around etc...)!
I played AA on-line, to me it's nothing more than a counter-strike with more realistic weapons. Operation Flashpoint is definetly more a military simulation.

Recently I've played "Close Combat: First to Fight". I got to admit it's a poor game overall...

I recently tried battlefield 2. It turns out my PC does not really meet the recommended hardware requirements. I guess time for an upgrade?

I'm planning on a new PC for about 1800-2000$ as well early next year, keeping the old one. So I will be able to play "Armed Assault" (Operation Flashpoint 2). :D

Hi!:D
CALL OF DUTY is the best war action game i've ever played. it has every thing that a war action needed, thats why it was the best game of year 2003 on Gamespot.
Other good war actions are MOHAA, Sniper,etc.
and strategic game are Rise of Nations, Commandos, War Craft.
Tactical action games are Metal Gear Solid and Splinter Cell,
which are my favorites games so far.

Video Games

I love video games, and I love the Army, so it's only natural that I enjoy realistic video games about combat. Some of my favorite titles are America's Army: Rise of a Soldier, Full Spectrum Warrior, FSW Ten Hammers, and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2. What are your favorite games?

I've especially been playing FSW Ten Hammers on Xbox lately


A US squad leader is checking his map.


British Coalition Forces also play a large part in this game.

Hey man, i have America's Army Special Forces for computer and aparently it got a better rating than the Rise of a Soldier one perhaps because it was FREE, i didn't know Ten Hammers was out already i am definatly going to get this one cause i love the first FSW, Although i have both the Ghost Recon 2 and GR2SS i didn't like them at all they are way too hard and take all the fun away. You should try splinter cell that is a pretty good game. And one of my favorite are Delta Force Joint Operations Typhoon Rising, thats they one that i have been lately playing.

I have AA: SF for the computer, too, but I don't play games on my computer very often.

I don't have Delta Force: Joint Ops, but I have Black Hawk Down on Xbox, but I hardly ever play it because all of the game modes have respawns, and that's lame. In fact, the only reasons I kept it was 1) I like having an interactive piece of history like that, and 2) proceeds from the game went to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation: a non-profit organization that gives college scholarships and educational counseling to surviving children of Special Operations personnel killed in action.

I also have all of Clancy's Xbox titles except for Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter (GRAW). I thought the Splinter Cell games were pretty good graphics wise, but I disliked the plot(s). I find it very, very... very hard to believe that one man could do all/any of that stuff. I realy enjoy GR2 and GR2: SS because they're squad-based, and I like the challenge. GRAW is just way to "gee-whiz" to be enjoyable.

You should definately look into Ten Hammers. I know it came out on 28 MAR 06, here in the US, but my friend in Canada hasn't have been able to get ahold of it, yet. But keep a look out for me (Gray R), because I'm on Ten Hammers all the time, and always looking for a good military buff to play with.

Also, for WWII fans, the Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 totally rocks. I'm talking to-scale recreations of entire towns, and you get to run amuck in all of it! The game's fairly easy, so you may want to go ahead and play on hard. Great game, great graphics, and of course, based on true events (it follows a squad from the 101st)! It also includes in-depth making of the game, and how they "got it right."

First of all i don't have XBox Live which i am proud not to have, i think its just a waste of time plus i am not an electrician sort of a person to have it connected what i do have is my XBox mod chipped which just rules, and right now i have games from Nintendo 64 to gameboy advance all on my Xbox plus i also have the newer ones like Far Cry.

And Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 does actually rocks for sure i think its one of the best games ever made for computer. You should try Mercenaries sure it follows the same theory as the Splinter Cell (of having one person creating a wreck like that but hey heros do exist.

Military simulation/computer games

I use to play games like:
-Lock on, which is a modern air combat simulation featuring Su-27 and F-15 among others.
-Dangerous Waters, a submarine/modern naval simulation. I really enjoy this game because it is accurate and very well built. You can take the control of a lot of SSNs like Akula II, Seawolf, Los Angeles, and SSK like Kilo and Improved Kilo (and also chinese ones). You can also control a Hazard Perry type frigate and also a MH-60 helo and P-3C Orion.

:cool:
