When it comes to war games, virtual reality is now taking on themes which relate to past world events. For example, Front Defense is an augmented reality defense game based on, and puts players in the middle of, World War II. As such, it is important that those planning on playing this game understand that is more graphic and violent than most.

An arcade style game, First Defense is based on the last firefight at the end of World War II. In the game, the Normandy invasion is long over, though the firefights of war have just began. It is at this point that Front Defense puts the player in place as an Allied Forces hero sent to battle in the last attacks by an Axis in a fictional European town.

The game allows the player to hunker down behind various well patrolled and armed positions while reloading weapons, switching, diving and ducking. Weapons in the game's war chest include man-mounted guns, grenades, assault weapons and others. For, players often need all the assistance available when it comes to defeating the enemy.

Created by some of the best developers and designers, the game provides the heaviest weaponry possible, reflecting the reality of World War II. As with war, the game uses precision, VR, battlefield and room scaling to provide realistic scenes which have been known to leave players feeling like active members of a unit during the war. For, the main priority behind Front Defense was to leave players feeling as if one were actually at war.

Front Defense is often reported to be one of the most intense, active and realistic games available. For, the intensity and experience of the WWII shooter is the first to use precision tracking and room scaling. As a result, the player has the power to create positions which are more strategic and highlighted when enemy forces take over a European town. While the game is based in actual events, some scenes may be different in architectural style than during World War II.

Other features include, a wide choice of weaponry including the previously mentioned grenades and firearms, dive bombers, armored cars, tanks and other heavy equipment in an effort to defeat the enemy. When it comes to the finale, the end of the game provides an opportunity for the shooter to battle a mysterious Axis super powered weapon which has left many players feeling the finale was more than climatic.

While first shooter games have been controversial for quite some time, when played as intended, these games can often deter rather than create violent behavior. For, many individuals now use these games as a method of stress release. Still, it is important that those under 18 be supervised and monitored when it comes to playing the game or acting out different scenes.

The specifications of the game are that it is a one player first shooter game with leader boards. It is important before beginning play to note that the game is Windows based and compatible with Windows 7 and later. As the game is a dedicated Windows game, it will not work with other operating systems. In fact, attempting to play the game on anything other than Windows 7 or later operating system could cause irreversible damage to the game and operating system.
