[BEST OF] United States Army Releases "Application" Game

Following the success of America's Army, the United States Army has released a new flash game called The Power of Applying Yourself.

In The Power of Applying Yourself, new recruits will be asked to fill out an "application" that "signs them up" for the US Army.

"We wanted a game to show potential recruits what it's like to be in the United States Army and we accomplished that with America's Army," said Col. Flanvis Johnson. "With The Power of Applying Yourself, we wanted something that legally binds players to join the Army."

The game also features online play where players can meet up in a "station" and get haircuts. According to Johnson, "The difference between this and other online games is that you physically have to go to the recruiting station and stand 'on line' to wait for your haircut."

The game was developed by PopCap Games and is already being stolen by eBaum's World.
