Description:
This paper is a preliminary study of the potential military training aid offered by a COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) game. The potential, and associated risks, offered by employing computer games for military training or analysis are not yet well understood.
A currently popular setting is modern military or paramilitary. Examples of this include Operation Flashpoint from Bohemia Interactive Studios and Ghost Recon from UbiSoft.
