Amazing.  Targetting 13 to 24 year olds, out soon on XBox etc, direct
clicking to Army recruiting website from game, soon to be tracked option of
each player's progress in case they enlist so military can see how they did
in the game and point them in the right direction.

Every time anyone like Pocoloco Smith makes something like this, the cries
erupt from the rafters about violence in video games aimed at youth etc.

Our military makes them, and they're nothing short of "patriotic cool" to
enlist more people for all that huge back order of bodybags we keep in
stock.

I didn't see any mention in the game's description of hiding the coffins of
our dead soldiers from the media and the public after they get popped in
cool warfare though.  Perhaps the game planners will add that in as well in
the future along with grading kid's performance on the battlefield while
playing such a neat healthy thing.

As the computer in that movie "War Games" finally discovered, the only
winning move is not to play the game.

With America's Military now designing them specifically for America's
Children that's going to be quite hard not to do anymore.

Long live the Soldier Class, obviously still the most important Class out of
all the rest that exist in America.  You get to drink beer, shoot guns, save
America from 100's of thousands of dead Civilians, get a medal, and if you
make it all the way through it, die like a dog in a VA hospital from a bed
sore.

Other than that, it's a lot of fun.  Honest.

Make sure you buy this game for your kids when it comes out.

They'll thank you for the rest of their short little independent lives.

It will be something they will be able to pass on to their children and
their childrens' childrens' children, until the end of time, and beyond.

Remember, kids, ask your parents for the new improved "America's Army" game.

The gift that keeps on killing.

(Batteries not necessary, offer void in nowhere, available to all children,
pre-teen version out soon, not affiliated with "Kill Them All, Let God Sort
Them Out Later" game put out by Hasbro.)
