Operation Flashpoint

So my brother emailed me asking about this game today. He is a veteran of the Army and loves pretty much all the military shooter games. Anyone have any good info about this game? It comes out tomorrow apparently.

I see it being similar to the Operation Desert Storm games that were on the PS2. Which we loved in CO-OP mode.

Operation Flashpoint (original) was great, realistic, huge terrains, good modding community, lots of really serious multiplayer servers out there and great times to be had with coop missions.

Codemasters published, Bohemia Interactive developed. After OFP 1 and its expansions they split, Codemasters retained rights to the name. The Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising coming otu soon is one by Codemasters themselves.
Bohemia made Armed Assault as the spiritual sequel, and have now progressed to Arma 2. They also make military training simulators for the US Marines and Army, basically tricked out versions of their games.
Haven't played Arma 2 or OFP: Dragon Rising, but i'd put more faith in Arma 2 myself. It has a demo out too.

ArmA II's supposed to be okay but apparently it's pretty buggy.
