VBS1 and VBS2 should be added to this post...since OFP and Arma are bi-products of the two....

Those arnt actual civilian retail games but military sims designed for the military which is why the price tag is so high. Also since they are only available to be purchased by government institutions (military, law enforcement, etc) there is no point in listing either of them here.

Civilians cant get their hands on it at least legaly.

What are you talking about? you can purchase vbs1....yes it has a high price...that's about it....the difference is its made for setting up scenerios with instructors in real time and does not include a campaign like the entertainment version. But, there are no restrictions on its purchase (other than you have to buy it through Bohemia instead of an outside retailer) You can also purchase it from people that are selling their copies on the net (if you want to buy them used). But, as far as the product itself...the public is not restricted from purchasing.

Outside North America it was possible for civilians to buy VBS1 since 2003.
Here in Germany we have since 2004 a small VBS1 gamer community due to the high price of this product. But there are gaming clans since 2004 and it is being played on big public LAN parties.

Red hammer adds only a russian campaign and few new vehicles, Resistance adds much more than that, so I say RESISTANCE!
