Arma uses the Real Virtuality engine that's used in training simulators by militaries around the world. Battlefield has the Frostbite engine for video games. Both games are fun in their own ways, though I like Arma more.
This is news? My mom was pretty upset with me playing violent video games when I was a kid. But it was very easy to fool her. Pretty sure kids are doing the same now too.
I wonder what kind of PC rig they used for this comparison. According to penny-arcade Brink's graphics on PC is definitely better than that of consoles. Still there is not much difference since this is a multi platform game and the PC version has suffered for it.
