"Ghost Recon 2"

Picked this up for £20 in (you know if you changed the name to Ghost Secon it would have the initials GS) and so far im in love. I was just expecting it to be a longer GR1 and was quite suprised to find myself shooting in 3rd person. Played a bit of live and the levels are absolutely immence. Especially a trench one which is a snipers dream. Somehow iv'e gone from 1star rank to 5 star in just one game so I think the stats are a bit poo but still brilliant game. Will update when iv'e palyed more single player.

Yeah I played the first mission on christmas day got shot full of holes and started The Third Age which took up most of my time and then onto Sudeki.

I mainly got it for online but the short amount of time I spent on the single player was good fun.

is there a 1st person mode option?


I've always found 3rd person a bit poo

There is yes, but 3rd really does work well with this game.

Merci.


They had it at my local Game store, which I hardly ever use anymore it was about 20 quid as well.

thought the orignal was pretty bland though, id much rather a city type landscape then a repetitive jungle.

I shall muse over it a while...

Hmm, you sl*g, I was going to get this anyway.

Does it have many online players?

The Island Thunder pack always had games going.

This is more mainstream than that. There'll be plenty of players, Ubi keeps things ticking over with dedicated forums and I believe there are clans too.

The one thing Ubi cant do though is a decent stat system, granted this is better than the stupid PT one its so shallow. Basicly your rated on a star rating varying from 1-5 and beleive me its very easy to get to five.

Apparently, if you do well in a game of 5 stars, you'll get promoted very quickly indeed.

One bad thing about GR2 is the optimatch, it takes forever to find one; by the time the filters show what's available, the game status will have changed, and you'll have to wait another10 mins or so for it to end.

Stars?

Damn, might stick to GR:IT then.
