Ripped from today’s headlines, Act of War: Direct Action™ is a frightening tale of suspense, international intrigue and geopolitical military conflict. This real-time strategy experience puts you squarely in control of counterterrorist forces and delivers a first look at tomorrow's war.


Direct action is an exclusive type of action! So they hired an HL2 modder to write the description, and then put their best Chinese lawyers to work.

They'll have a big advantage over C&C if their infantry models aren't ripped out of a Tron/Tolkien-hybrid nightmare.

Played the demo. The infantry models are better, but you have to zoom up impossibly close to notice. Everything else looks the same as a two year old game. Unit animations are much more limited than in Generals. And finally, despite no major improvement in graphics, it runs like shit.

Is that one of Clancy's pen names?
