Fans of modern warfare computer video games will be extremely happy to find out that Shrapnel Games and ProSIM have decided to bring no less than three great titles to digital distribution, allowing you to experience the excitement of armor clashes in the Middle East, a true airmobile assault at the top of the world, or a vertical simulation offered by an infantry landing at the bottom. What's the most important thing of them all? You can start playing seconds after you purchase the titles (you know, that's what digital distribution means, after all!) but you will also get a physical copy delivered to your door as soon as possible.

In order for you to decide if this is a great thing or not, we should talk a little about the games put up for sale: The Falklands War: 1982, The Star and the Crescent, and Air Assault Task Force (all available only for PC systems).

The Falklands War: 1982 re-creates the historical conflict between Great Britain and Argentina in 1982, and features company to brigade-sized units. Although the game tries to stay as accurate as possible, hypothetical situations are also examined by the developers - for example, what effect armor would have had on the battlefields. Everything in a beautifully crafted world with dynamic weather.

The second game put up on offer via digital download, The Star and the Crescent re-creates some of the biggest Arab-Israeli conflicts and even dares to outline possible future ones (hopefully, these will remain only virtual). This game will bring armored troops, air support, radar modeling and much more, including futuristic weapons and tons of enemies.

Air Assault Task Force is the latest title from ProSIM and it enters a new era, with a brand new interface and many other improvements. The game is only about airmobile and vertical combat, featuring battles from three pivotal moments in the history of air assault: the Ia Drang valley in Vietnam, Mogadishu in Somalia, and Shah-i- Kot valley in Afghanistan. We're really glad that none of these games is another re-creation of World War II, and I'm pretty sure you are too.
