I just checked out the new Call of Duty and was wondering if anyone knows of a good Vietnam FPS. Any advice would be helpful.

There was a Vietnam mod for the old Battlefield 1942 game. That's kind of old though.

There's also Battlefield Vietnam.

With that in mind I'm sure there was a game called Vietcong out on Pc a couple of years ago.

Also Battlefield Vietnam. It's one of the weaker Battlefield games but it's still a lot of fun, it's also notable that the aircraft don't have that much power.
On PS2 there is Shellshock Nam 67. It's pretty much a dumb run'n'gun game in the jungle with swearing and drugs, but it's fun all the same.

Nam-1975 on the Neo Geo is probably my most favorite Vietnam game of all times!

There's Uwe Boll's TUNNEL RAT. I'm pretty sure that will be a good game.

Battlefield Vietnam is the only good Vietnam game in human history, and it looks like it's going to stay that way.

And Vietnam games are a very unique experience because they're the one game where I'm rooting for both sides and I feel bad for killing people of either side. The Vietnam War sucked.

Though now that I think about it I believe there was a Conflict: Vietnam game that was pretty good. I only played it for like an hour at a friend's house a few years ago but I don't recall it being bad.

There's a game called The Hell in Vietnam. I've never played it, but maybe check it out. Also, there's Vietcong 2.

But without doubt, if you're looking for a good Vietnam game, go for Battlefield Vietnam.
There is no better feeling than piloting a helicopter, raining boiling death down upon your enemies with Edwin Starr's "War" blasting in your ears.

Shellshock 2 is coming out on December 2 (sequal to Shellshock Nam '67) I don't know how it will be but it could be good, personally I'm pretty negative about most things that come out these days.
