Title: Ghost Recon 2  (Xbox)
Post by: captain_nintendo on July 22, 2005, 05:08:51 AM
Ok , so last night I cheated on my copy of Halo 2  :P
I bought another Xbox FPS..... :o

Ghost Recon 2 is awesome ! squad based , slow "real" pace to the game. And guess what ??

You die if somebody shoots you. It really was refreshing to see strategy involved because of the fear of death.

Alot of my Halo 2 clan has bought this in the past week and we switch back and forth between the 2 games.

Its a great change of pace. But when I go back to H2 , I played with the same slow pace and it was wierd.
I mean I normally am a smart thinking type of Halo player anyhow , but Ghost Recon takes it to a higher level  :P


Anybody else have this game ?

I have it and have been itching to play it for some time. There's a lot of free DLC for it, too.

Also, it has 4 player splitscreen per xbox for offline multiplayer. The previous GR only had 2 per box.

Yep , I had to download all 3 packs (free) last night before I could play. (took like 5 minutes)


I like the fact that each team member can specialize.
Be a gunner , grenader , sharpshooter or lonewolf.

I always end up being the gunner.

I have been playing Rainbow Six 3 off and on a bt and it is along the same lines (Go figure 2 Clancy games that where alike)

It is more fun in some ways because just being a run n' gun hot head loses you the game.

Yep. Me and Scoot played this at his place this weekend and one time we sat in one spot for like 5 or 6 minutes picking off the enemy.

I just wanted to say how hard these missions were :-[
You have to be really patient and careful through the whole mission.

I can't even get by the first damn mission. Need to go slower!
