Released back in 2002, Americaâ??s Army was arguably one of the most controversial gaming releases of all time.

I remember this when it first came out. I was on the SimHQ forums at the time. It was in stiff competition from Operation Flashpoint and never really took off - apart from in America. “This is the SAW” yeah well this is my PKP Laughing

Reminds me of the beta of Black Hawk Down. That was absolutely awesome. Took ages before the full game came out and it was nothing like the beta. I played the beta daily for months. Played the full release for about 3 days and never again.

This is kinda like that. It was great when it first came out, has a good size fanbase, but over the years its not changed and evolved enough to keep it interesting. Last year they did this account thing. I lost everything I did over the years and had to start again and now they are closing it? WHY after so long change to an account system just to close it down a year later? Makes no sense if you ask me.
