If you have a good internat connection, a decent PC and are up for a good time i recommend Americas Army Online.

Its a pretty realistic online FPS. The guns are the authentic models of which they use in real life.

Whats more about this game is that its 100% FREE!! all you need to do is download it from here:
http://www.americasarmy.com/downloads/ (yes it really is that big).

Once you download it, you register a character online (name password) and do some training. Once thats over you can run riot across 1000's of servers.

Also you might want to download this aswell: http://aaotracker.4players.de/ (it keeps track of your kills and deaths!)

If you do decide to download and play, add me to your tracker buddy list, the names [MRC]Reesfmoka=UK=

652Mb eh? That is a big file

I may very well give this a go, I'm currently addicted to Call Of Duty online, would be good to have a change.

Overnight download, methinks, should take about three hours.

I'll look out for you reefsmoka, I usually go by the name of 'Slippery'.

Its a fantastic game, im sure you'll enjoy thoroughly.

Apperently the American military funded over £7million pound to make this game!

Now Ubisoft are in partnership aswell and we could be seeing a single player version blasting its way to the gaming shop shelves in the near future.

Heres a link to my AAO tracker detail so you can see the damage the game has done to my social life: http://aaotracker.4players.de/usert...hp?userid=37431 (yes, that is over 400 hours of gameplay)

"Apperently the American military funded over £7million pound to make this game!"

shame they didn't spend that training their real military!!!

The topic here techy is about the awesome game America's Army. I do not particularly care for your political opinions on the United States military training bank account! Keep your snide remarks to yourself!
Oh, and by the way, I do agree it is a great game. I'll be looking for techy someday soon, hopefully through my crossshairs.

And I don't particularly care for your attitude, RdizJ9AWe4lawPVB+rBh.

Not off on the best of footings here, are we? Your first post and you're accusing somebody of making snide remarks.

imo it wasn't a snide remark, just a light hearted, albeit cynical, reply.

I don't agree with the remark either, FWIW, but I have the good grace to allow freedom of expression here when it isn't overly offensive.

And apart from that, we know techy a little, we don't know one goddamn thing about you yet except for your first post.

So tone it down.

there's no need for attempted death threats!

i was simply making a light hearted comment, apologies for any offence caused.

why are you so touchy about that subject anyway?

Oh boy, wee. That was fun. I don't care what you think of military training, I just have fun from time to time trying to get people a little upset. You do your thing, I'll do mine. As for the idle death threat, I was hoping to see you in an America's Army game someday! So I could shoot you!. In a game. For the fun of it. That's what it's all about! Wee

LOL... suck it up RdizJ9AWe4lawPVB+rBh. We spend far too much on our military as it is, to the tune of nearly half a trillion dollars. So quit whining.

As for Americas Army... It is a great game. I've been addicted to it for quite some time now. Still havn't got through that Special Forces e & e training yet, though. Damn near spent 10 hours trying already. Things a pain in the arse(as the limeys would say )

Anyway, I highly recommend it. And the best thing is, its free.

thats a key phrase in UK, could get along with out it!
