ArmA's Game Convention Official Trailer Re-Release
We released an official ArmA trailer during Game Convention last week, unfortunately we've been informed that some of the versions available online have an audio sync issue, so we're pleased to be able to re-release the fixed trailer in three different formats and sizes:


ArmA_GC06_High.zip (102mb, high quality - wmv format)
ArmA_GC06_Med.zip (38mb, medium quality - Divx 5 avi format)
ArmA_GC06_Low.zip (14mb, low quality - wmv format)

New ArmA screenshots on our websites.
A couple of weeks ago we put some new screenshots of ArmA onto both the Bistudio.com website and the ArmedAssault.com website, these show very well the significant progress we've been making recently.
