This game is sick. Everything I hated about the first two has been changed. But now it leaves me with a new problem and that is where to spend my time. I love Halo 2 and now with GR 2 out and it as good as it is I just don't know what to do. What to play and damn, if I should go to work or not Very Happy

I found the first two, very clunky and hard work to play.
this one looks a lot better.

Its kind of a Full spectrum warrior meets rainbow 6 meets ghost recon.

Lovely to play, have yet to get on kai with it. need to sharpen my skills and learn a few maps 1st. Wink

the ONLY reason i didn't play the first Ghost Recon was cos it was only 1st person view......sad but true.

This game takes best part of the original Rainbow Six (those who played it will know) and Rainbow Six 3........ AWESOME!!!!

but i'll first complete the campaign mode till i take this on-line.... cos if i play once on-line, i'll never play the campaign mode again Razz

Well there have been 100 people in the arena playing the game so you know it's hot. But I still play it in FPS mode. Very Happy

Seven:XR was an awsome host. We did get a few games of 16 player co-op this weekend. W.O.W. that was something exciting. Finishing levels with only like 2 or 3 of us left alive.

The only drawback to multiplayer online with GR2 is not knowing who is speaking at anytime (lobby/in-game). That for me would be the only drawback. "Cover me", "Who said that" ..[player dies].. Happens if you don't know who's voice is who or you don't identify yourself first. ha ha..

Still it's a great game.

this is nuts!!! but from reading reviews and comments in other forum that, they didn't include this b'cos of the realism factor of the game. communicate with your team-mates by reporting your name and location (maps are marked) when you speak. ideally it would work well and provide great realism, but it's doesn't work all the time IMO.

I'm not saying it's a show stopper, i just said it's a drawback to "rainbow six players" who are used to names popping up... mabye I should'a said i'm a rbs player and I'm used to it there, and since it is ubi...

It's still a great game...
