A game that i'm trying to get my hands on is VSB1 which is aparently based on OFP. So i'll report back when i get the chance to play it
.
Also, Operation Flashpoint: Dragoon Rising is out in the US i believe. Though it probably wouldn't work on my medium end PC, so i probably won't get to play it for a while

For instance, most of us aren't going to be on an Elite Counter-Terrorist team, doesn't mean we wouldn't like to pretend we are in a game. And the realism just makes it more believable and essentially more fun.

I feel the same way. I find realistic shooting game's to be far more interesting. Just personally, i get more easily immersed in a atmosphere of a realistic game. Also, I think you make a good point in saying that even the more realistic shooter's provide something that the player is unlikely to experience in real life.

With the exception of the heavy recruiting material filling the game, it's actually quite realistic; you take a burst from an enemy's AK and you're in a world of hurt, if not dead outright, with no respawn until the round is over (your character can also die from their wounds if not promptly treated by a medic). America's Army 3 seems to be the most realistic thus far as far as weapon performance, once you get past all the glitches...

I haven't actually played America's Army before. Sound pretty cool, so I think i'll download it from steam when my download limit recharges.
