Description

This is the console version of America's Army, the U.S. Army's free "recruitment tool" for the PC. As in the PC version, the single-player campaign of this console version simulates a soldier's true Army career from boot camp all the way to the Special Forces. Most of the game's missions involve real-world situations today, and the game uses authentic Army weapons and equipment.

Since the game was developed with the professional advice of actual Special Forces soldiers, the game is extremely realistic and forces you to follow authentic Army tactics. This makes the player feel as if they are truly on the battlefield, rather than just running around killing underpowered bad guys. If you use a run-'n-gun approach to the gameplay, you can easily get killed on the battlefield.

There are 2 major changes to this console version. The "build-a-soldier" feature allows you to fully customize your soldier by changing his name, nickname, face, and even his homestate. Experience points, which are earned at the end of each mission for performing well, can be spent improving your soldier's abilities.
