ArmA: Armed Assault
I found about this game from a Russian friend of mine, apparently its all the rage where he lives. Too bad there is no North American publisher for this game.
What is it? A 1st person realistic shooter. Think Battlefield on steroids.
http://www.armedassault.com/
400 square KM maps
Real constellations and tides: ArmA's great depth even includes such features as fully simulated star maps, lunar cycles and tides. Watch where you park your vehicle, soldier! I'm sold!
More than 30 modern vehicles: all vehicles in the game can be controlled - tanks, armoured vehicles, helicopters, airplanes, civilian cars or even boats.

I played the Czech version of the game with my boss. It is unreal what you can do. The physics of this game > all! As Ken said, every vehicle in this game can be controlled. My boss showed me this video where there were about 400 tanks and they blew up one and it set off a chain reaction that starting blowing up every tank. It was very realistic. This is a pretty cool video. I will get the other one from my boss and post soon.

So far its like a perfect combo of America's Army and the Battlefield series.
Incredibly realistic, fun and yet relatively easy to play when you factor in the complexity and number of controls.
