	America's Army: Rise of a Soldier (xbx: 2005): Reviews
		Quick reflexes, strategic planning and the use of teamwork are mandatory to succeed in army missions, which plunge you into ultra-realistic combat scenarios.
		The ability to create a soldier, tweaking various elements in both a physical and mental capacity, and then raising him through the ranks is great, but the actual gameplay is hurt by a lack of fluidity.
		America’s Army: Rise of a Soldier may lack the polish and panache of Ubisoft’s other military shooters, but it does hit the marks where it counts – convincing gameplay.
