America's Army

"The things I wanted in a game."

When I updated my computer to nividia It came with Americas Army but didnt work.I downloaded the free game(yes it is actually free!!).This game is what I wanted in a game free,realistic,and most importantly Fun.Some people compared this to counter strike like me but this is 100 times better if it can go over 10 I will put the highest.If you didn't know this the army made this game as a recruiting tool to influence you to join the army.Below are the details.

Gameplay10/10
This game has a great online gameplay.But don't rush if you want to play pass training because it will help you online.You can modify your weapon to what you want it.People are always here to play this game.If you like Counter-Strike then you will know that this is similar to it but better.You don't buy weapons it is realistic.The hits are small and the recoil is big if you hold the button.The battles sre never the same there about 100 servers or more and different people so what are the chances of the same boring battle.This game play has influenced me to join the army and serve my country

Graphics10/10
The graphics are amazing.The character models sre lifelike.The details are very good too.You can customize the shadows to what you want.If you have a good computer you will love this graphics.These are the best I have seen in awhile.

Controls10/10
Hey this a computer were talking about you have different buttons so you don't have to do things like a controller.If you don't like the controls you can change it to your likings.If your not used to it do training then to help your self learn it better.

Sound10/10
Well this game is being made by the army so imagine how realistic it is.Everything sounds so real it feels like you are in a warzone.

Online10/10
The meat of the game is online.Different people and battles will want you to play again and again.You can select what weapon class you are in and you can become a medic if you pass the class.You also have to stratigize to win a battle rather being a stupid mob

Replay10/10
Like I said earlier different battles and people are going to be different.Also there are different maps so there are going to be different battles.

To buy or rent?
You can't do both cause it is free if you don't like it delete it then.But if I were you and read peoples reviews you should download it but don't do it with 56k it takes 36 hors.You can also go to your local recruiter for a the game.If you have broadband 1 hour was for me and I was done so it must be the same to you.And have fun with the free game you wont regret it.
