Earlier we mentioned the ARG website getawarjob.com for Resistance 2 and now it appears to be up and operational. The xenophobic urgings of the virtual pamphlets seem almost eerily authentic and calling the number above will result in a message about obligations to defend the "red, white and blue," against "the forces that conspire against us" and exhorts you to "get a war job." A medical pamphlet also alerts us to an "European influenza" and safeguarding the US against "death, disease and destruction." The typewriter in the center has a form for you to fill out including your address and even a listing of "all major medical issues." We were filling out ours half-way and wondering if we were really signing away our lives...

Does anyone actually read stuff in privacy policy?
This is for SOCOM, not Resistance 2.

why not the LS2LS7? said...
This isn't sponsored by the US Army. Yes, America's Army was.
Where did people like you who just wanted to make up false info and spread it as truth do before the internet existed?

If you actually "READ" through the policy it only states SOCOM as a way to collect privacy data. This is a generic SCEA privacy policy since they apparently run the site.
