I have been playing this game called Operation Flashpoint, it is not really that new but it is the most realistic Combat simulation game I have played. It has huge maps containing contaminated areas which make it almost impossible to sneak up on people...you are not just going to play Rambo and run around killing everybody. You have to low crawl; you have use cover and concealment and you have to play as if your life depended on it. If you get shot in the left arm...you lose use of your left arm. If you get shot in the leg...you lose use of your leg...you get shot in the head... (Insert witty rhythmic phrase here). It has many more features that I just don't have time to list. This is hands down the best first person shooter out there from a realism standpoint. It makes COD look like an arcade game that you give your son 75 cents to go play at the mall.
