List All 3 PricesRipped 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. The Situation - A crippling energy crisis. Terrorist attacks. Massive strikes. Global instability. The Enemy - A shadowy Consortium of back-room conspirators determined to throw the wo…

Pretty shabby! It would install but it would not play because it needed some obscure video card feature. Most EA games and a lot of others work fine on our machines, but not this one. Beware! Act of War: Direct Action (DVD) Read more or see product
