message: According to howstuffworks, ""America's Army" has birthed a franchise. The U.S. Marines, Air Force and Navy are all rolling out their own training simulation video games as a result of the game's success. And other militaries, including those of Palestine and Hezbollah, have also developed their own versions of the game.". Can anyone verify because this would be relevant to the article. --Philip Laurence 04:23, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  AA on Steam 

message: Hi all
I am going to edit the page and bring it more uptodate as well as correct some info and try and get references...
I agree that it might be best to split the article now as there are the three separate games, "AA2"(PC), "AA3"(PC) and "Rise of a soldier" (Xbox).  As "Rise of a soldier" is a franchise and was only co-developed by the USArmy I think that should be separate but with AA2 and AA3 being run alongside each other and with the problem that many people will play both versions until the problems are fixed and the only co-op maps are in version 2 not version 3. This combined with the "only time will tell" factor to see if AA2 continues or falls off and ceases to be used leads me to strongly disagree with splitting them apart as yet. Maybe in the future months we will have to.
For now I will carry on and edit with that possible split in mind...
