Now it's your turn to hunt down Osama
Bangalore: You heard it right. You can also kill Osama Bin Laden. Although the U.S. Government may never disclose the details of how the most wanted terrorist was shot down in Abbottabad, the PC game developer Kuma Games is giving you the opportunity. It has developed a game titled "Kuma/War Episode #107: The Death of Osama bin Laden" that allows the player to play as a US Navy SEAL, who is tasked with killing Osama. The Kuma Games website describes the newest mission as, "After months of stake outs and growing amounts of Intel, a U.S. helicopter crosses Pakistan under the cloak of darkness. 79 Navy SEALs drop from the sky into a secret compound, designed for defense and manned by Al Qaeda killers. In forty minutes and a rain of hot lead, a decades-long, worldwide manhunt for Osama Bin Laden will be ended.. by you." The game was launched on February 28, 2004 with a two-part mission that put gamers in control of 101st Airborne and Special Forces to kill Uday and Qusay Hussain, sons of Saddam and leaders of his military units. Kuma Games builds re-creations of real-world events using advanced gaming tools. A first and third-person tactical squad-based game, Kuma War provides multiple updates monthly to the consumer's computer to reflect unfolding events in the real world. Adding to the Mission 107, Kuma war also includes other games like "Mission 62: Operation Red Dawn", which narrates the search and capture of Saddam Hussein and "Mission 75: The Death of al-Zarqawi", which makes the player find the location of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of the Al Qaeda.
