Operation Flashpoint Update News

Phew, we nearly thought this one had been scrapped as we reveal new screens and info on the definitive war simulator...
Itās been a long time since we last heard anything on the Xbox port of the excellent Operation Flashpoint; thankfully Codemasters today ended the silence with new screens and information.
Those who havenāt heard of Operation Flashpoint have simply missed out on the finest war-simulator ever created; the PC version garnished rave reviews across the board with its stunning blend of action and depth on a level of immersion that very few games manage. Set during a fictional Cold War conflict in 1985, players find themselves in a situation where every action has a consequence. Players can take control of a huge number of vehicles, from Apache helicopters to the run-down tractor in a nearby village; literally every move is at your dispersal to combat the growing communist threat.
The Xbox version will not only contain the groundbreaking original, but also the āResistanceā campaign set before events in the main game.
Bohemia Interactive are currently hard at work enhancing the already impressive graphics engine; so we can expect this game to look even better then witnessed in these screens thanks to the use of Xbox specific features.
Itās long been rumoured that the game will make use of Xbox Live! ā“ a feature that weād love to see ā“ at present Codemasters have yet to make an official announcement on the situation; weāll let you in as soon as an official announcement has been made.
If Bohemia Interactive can accurately adapt the keyboard heavy control system to an Xbox joypad; Operation Flashpoint could very well be the game to fill in the disappointment of not having Halo 2 this year.
Operation Flashpoint is scheduled for release in the autumn; you can bet weāll have a lot more on this title soonā¦
