Gaming News - August 2002
New York, NY (August 28, 2002) - Codemasters today announced
that they will be publishing a Game of the Year addition of Operation
Flashpoint. The game will include all upgrades, expansions, and some new
campaigns.
“We wanted to offer new recruits the total package so they can jump in and
share the full experience with the legions of experienced soldiers in the
Flashpoint community” said David Solari, senior marketing manager of Codemasters
U.S. “This Game of the Year Edition is destined to keep Operation Flashpoint one
of the strongest brands in the PC games market.”
From Codemasters:
UK-based publishing giant, Codemasters, will launch the ultimate Operation
Flashpoint compendium pack this autumn for PC gamers. It brings together the
award winning original game enhanced with all the official upgrades, expansions
and additional campaigns. The compendium will be launched as Operation
Flashpoint: Game of the Year Edition and is ideally suited for new Flashpoint
recruits. It brings together the complete series, including the original
Operation: Flashpoint, which has sold over one million copies.
Developed by Bohemia Interactive Studio, Operation Flashpoint revolutionized
the military simulator by enabling the player to control and command not just
soldiers of all ranks but also land, sea and air vehicles – both military and
civilian – from cars, to APCs, to tanks and even military helicopters. The
series has garnered critical acclaim for its realism of simulating military
conflict situations, even to the extent where the game’s technology has been
adapted for the United States Marine Corps to use as a special combat training
application called VBS1 (Virtual BattleField System).
