    It's like a lot of futuristic war scenarios. Company controlled military is a lot easier for the world to digest than villanizing one group of people (Nazis, Middle East, Russia...). It's why there are so many WWII shooters, and why futuristic shooters use the same military for profit scenarios. Less controversy for who your enemy is.

    I don't think this MMO game has a back story. Private Military Corporations will no doubt become apparent in the future. Look at Black Water company.

    PMC's are the future man. Look at how much the American government spent in hiring PMC's in iraq. I would also like to add that from all the different FOS MP games that came out this year and are going to come out early next year that thats the one I am truly excited for. I really hope it won't disappoint me.

    Mmm, this one could rock or flop. It comes out a little before my Bday, so I'll get to see reviews beforehand, although I'm seriously looking at Just Cause 2 instead. But yeah, the story isn't too uncommon, it gives them flexibility because no specific countries are mentioned.
