Pfft. 

Marines might walk on water.

Army elite can swim through land! 




And, really, the USMC does a little bit of everything.  They fight, they fly, they swim, they sail.. and they get some of the new & different cool toys to do so with.  Hovercraft, Osprey transport, etc.  If you're making a video game, the public image of the USMC helps sell that.

USMC: dress uniforms, buzz cuts, and swords!  F'ing SWORDS, man!
Army: polyester puke green dress uniform, looks like it was designed by the same people that did the McDonalds uniform.

The Army is the "average" military.  Nobody wants to market their game based on the average, normal military.

Nope.

Their game's gotta be based on the hardest of the hard, baddest of the bad.

SF isn't good enough.  Delta isn't good enough.  gotta make up a new bunch 'o badasses and call 'em Rainbow Six or some such noise.

(Nevermind that Rainbow Six sounds like an elite over-the-top gay-pride strike force.  You've got a fashion emergency that noone else can solve.. You have the money.. You have the accessories.. and you can find them amongst the San Francisco underground.. you might get help from... Rainbow Six!

Im hoping the gameplay is smooth, particularly the motion etc. Also hoping the GFX match up to most of the vids, even though some were pre-rendered. Getting it anyway though, this and ARMA II, both for the PS3. My PC would melt if either one came within five feet.

This image is odd, those are USMC running toward an MI-8/17 which I assume is Chinese. Unless they jacked it.

But then again, who cares, cos it looks facken orsum.

You sure? The camo looks a lot like the camo the USMC use in the game, though I know the PLA use their new digi cam. But the guy in the middle looks like he's carrying an M4.

The USMC look to be using green woodland camo in the game
that looks like it has a hint of silver in it

Also, the Type 95 (PLA Assault Rifle) has a handle along with the M4. Though the butt looks vaguely familiar

I found a new screenshot - MP5 AND NIGHTVISION (The flashlight works apparently )

The USMC camo in the game isn't MARPAT, more like a sort of Multicam/MARPAT cross. I know the QBZ95 has the carry-handle, but its a bullpup, the stock of the gun in the pic looks like the collapsible one on the M4.

But he looks like one of the dudes from the big promo vid, before the church goes kaboom.

Weird as well, the camo on the boxart is the actual MARPAT.
