| Three ProSIM Titles Added to Digital Distribution Shrapnel Games has made available for immediate download three more titles from the undisputed masters of bringing the modern battlefield to your desktop, the ProSIM Company. Gamers can now experience the thrill of armor clashes in the Middle East, an airmobile assault at the top of the world and an infantry landing at the bottom, all within minutes of purchase. Not only that, but gamers get the best of both worlds: an immediate download to start playing right away and a physical copy shipped quickly to your door, where ever that door may be, all at one price. Joining other dual-media titles already available for download by ProSIM are The Falklands War: 1982, The Star and the Crescent, and ProSIM's latest titles, Air Assault Task Force. All three titles are available only for the Windows OS. The Falklands War: 1982 examines the historical conflict between Great Britain and Argentina in 1982. Featuring company to brigade sized units (with battalion level amphibious landings) this is primarily an infantry battle amongst windswept hills and flocks of sheep. Hypothetical situations are also examined, such as the effects armor would have had on the battle. Dynamic weather and the ability to modify troop quality before each scenario creates a high level of replayability. The Star and the Crescent recreates historical Arab-Israeli conflicts along with including possible future regional conflicts. Perfect for the gamer who enjoys the clash of armor, The Star and the Crescent has mechanized forces, close air support, extensive radar modeling, individual buildings, and much more. Since it covers from the past to the future gamers will also appreciate the variety of equipment found in the game, especially since most of the regional powers tended to use a hodge-podge collection of weapon platforms. Air Assault Task Force is the latest title from ProSIM and begins a new era, with a brand new interface and many, many refinements under the hood-all of which can be retroactively applied to earlier ProSIM titles using the ATF game engine. Air Assault Task Force is all about airmobile and features battles from three pivotal moments in the history of air assault: the Ia Drang valley in Vietnam, Mogadishu in Somalia, and Shah-i-Kot valley in Afghanistan. An upgraded damage modeling system allows individual weapon destruction and personnel injuries. All three titles are available right now for immediate download at the Shrapnel Games online store, the Gamers Front. In addition to the immediate download you will also receive the physical game. Each ProSIM title includes an extensive 100+ page manual. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Game News :: home page |
