Kotaku - You're playing a game like Battlefield 3 or Call of Duty, shooting and grenading left and right. And you're thinking, "Wow, what an awesomely realistic game. The Navy Seals should be playing this."
Well, they probably are. The U.S. military has embraced video games. In fact, the Pentagon can't even fight a war without games, because it's too expensive to train soldiers the old-fashioned, face-in-the-mud way.
Bohemia Interactive Simulations (BISim) has announced a partnership with the private equity firm The Riverside Company, who recently made a significant investment in the company. Riverside’s interest is underpinned by its strong belief in the potential of videogames for training, and BISim’s proven Virtual Battlespace (VBS) training environment.
