"The U.S. military has big plans to use video games as promotional vehicles over the next five years. First up, you'll find Recon--a light version of the Soldier and Operations games--around the Fourth of July. This release is intended to stress-test the 100-plus army servers that will be hosting the games.

Throughout the summer, more missions will be slowly rolled out until the full version of America's Army officially appears in August. You'll be able to download the game for free from any number of Web sites (including www.americasarmy.com), or you can find it bundled with gaming-enthusiast magazines this September. Then, with updates starting at the end of the year, you'll have the ability to work with specific army divisions. There's even talk of letting characters achieve higher ranks to command troops. Xbox owners might eventually be eligible for the draft as well, but that is much further down the road."
