They are actually

One game they actually use was Americas Army and they have the simulators for 50cal gunners mk19 grenade luanchers you name it the simulators are really good for situational type shooting but the lazer systems in the field are more fun. But no snake video games can't get you ready for the real thing but that jus my opinion
