Clearly most everyone working in the MMO industry has been chowing down on BBQ as there hasn't been much in the way of major gaming news stories breaking during the holiday. However, we did come across a <a href="http://www.globalagendagame.com"><em>Global Agenda</em></a> story that we think is fitting for the 4th of July weekend. <br /><br /><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/hi-rez-studios">Hi-Rez Studios</a> VP of game operations <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/stew-chisam">Stew Chisam</a> writes that the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/global-agenda"><em>Global Agenda</em></a> team received this from the wife of U.S. Army Captain Chris Ficquette: <em>"My husband is in the United States Army and will be re-deployed for his second tour of duty this summer. To date, I have not yet found a bigger fan of video games than him. Is there any way that I could have my husband involved in motion capturing so that he could be immortalized in your video game?" </em>It turns out <a href="http://www.hirezstudios.com/">Hi-Rez Studios</a> was willing to oblige.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/05/global-agenda-mo-caps-u-s-soldier-before-he-deploys-for-tour-of/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Global Agenda mo-caps U.S. soldier before he deploys for tour of duty</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/07/05/global-agenda-mo-caps-u-s-soldier-before-he-deploys-for-tour-of/">Global Agenda mo-caps U.S. soldier before he deploys for tour of duty</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Sun, 05 Jul 2009 20:00:00 EST.
