What's Hawt: Who says video games aren’t beneficial to real life situations? Epic Games has announced a partnership with Virtual Heroes to allow licensing of Unreal Engine 3 to the U.S. government for training purposes.
N10:
Epic Games has revealed that Unreal Engine 3 (UE3) will make its public debut on Windows 8, Microsoft's next PC operating system, and the tablet-based Windows RT. The unveiling occurred during computer manufacturer Asus' press conference at the IFA 2012 electronics trade show in Berlin.
The Community's newest member, Trauma, debuts with a history of UE3's impact on gaming, and a preview of what's to come from UE4.
this isnt news... they have been doing this since the original unreal engine... were talkn decades here.
Simulation =/= Real training
US Army, spend that tax money properly!
IF theyre gonna play games they could atleast install it on one of their supercomputers and make an mmo out of it for all soldiers.

they're not playing the dirty, sub-hd, jaggie console version that takes 5 seconds to load in all the textures everytime a scene changes!
they're playing in true hd, 1080p at 60 frames or better with 1 second loading on pc suckas!
if it's really 100% same in the field then it's a nice project. but if it's not then it'll be a different story, there's a slight difference between those two i think
