DESCRIPTION

Designed to provide a gritty, comprehensive experience of realistic modern warfare, players will battle the enemy from ground vehicles, planes, and a first-person infantry perspective in this release from Codemasters. It is not your father's Cold War when Soviet rebels mobilize in opposition to the cooperative policies of Glasnost and Perestroika. When Russia asks for help in restoring peace in the rebel-occupied territory, NATO initiates Operation Flashpoint.

Operation Flashpoint includes a single-player mode with stand alone missions, a multiplayer feature that allows soldiers to battle terrorism together over a network, and a full campaign. During the campaign players can rise in rank, eventually taking command of a squad and issuing orders to fellow soldiers through a keyboard command system designed to be easy to learn and use. During each mission in the campaign mode users can save the game once at a time of their choosing.

Though based on the million-selling PC title and developed by the same Bohemia Interactive Studio, this Xbox version of Operation Flashpoint has been optimized for the console and offers all of the missions from the PC's contemporarily released Operation Flashpoint: Resistance prequel expansion pack in addition to those from the original game. ~ T.J.
