It has been said that the only people in the world who truly understand Marines are Marines and the enemy. And now - you.

Close Combat: First to Fight represents modern urban combat with unprecedented authenticity. It is a first-person shooter in which you lead a four-man fire team of United States Marines through the perils of urban combat in the Middle East.

At every step in Close Combat: First to Fight's development, active-duty Marines, fresh from firefights in the Middle East, were there to tell us exactly how they do it: How they move. How they talk. The tactics they employ. What it sounds like to be in a firefight and much more!

The result is a game so real that Close Combat: First to Fight will be used as a training tool by the Marines themselves. Close Combat: First to Fight is as close as you can get on a computer or Xbox to being a Marine fireteam leader in modern urban combat.

Features: First to Fight is the only first-person shooter that:

• was developed with the close involvement of active-duty US Marines fresh from combat in the Middle East.
• uses authentic Marine urban military doctrine (Ready-Team-Fire-Assist) which governs how Marines manoeuvre through urban environments.
• uses the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) to destroy enemies: call for fire and support from Cobra helicopters, mortar, other fireteams, tanks and AAVs.
• allows players to use true-to-life urban military tactics and strategies to defeat enemies: lay suppressing fire, flank enemies, separate leaders from enemies, etc.
• uses a psychology model that makes the AI behave and react to situations as real people would.
