Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2

Ghost Recon 2 Advanced Warfighter

Strengths: Slightly upgraded graphics from original, Engrossing SP, Fun MP.

Weakness: Feels like GRAW 1.5, Camping in MP still

This game was only a slight upgrade from the original Ghost Recon. Not like it's a bad thing, but I was expecting a pretty big leap from last years great game. Graphics have been cleaned up a bit and some new add ons to the cover system. SP is a little short but still fun. MP is where it's at for the most fun. Camping is still a problem in most games, but the co-op is pretty fun to play with a...

This game was only a slight upgrade from the original Ghost Recon. Not like it's a bad thing, but I was expecting a pretty big leap from last years great game. Graphics have been cleaned up a bit and some new add ons to the cover system. SP is a little short but still fun. MP is where it's at for the most fun. Camping is still a problem in most games, but the co-op is pretty fun to play with a bunch of friends trying to knock off the computer A.I. Bought it at a great price from Fry's Electronics when it first came out, so it was well worth the $35 I spent.

GRAW 2

Strengths: Impressive graphics, good cover system

Weakness: None so far

I am playing Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 after finishing Gears of War solo on hardcore and co-op on insane. The graphics is impressive, almost better than Gears of War. The cover system is good too - no need to press any button, just get close enough to get into cover. However, popping out and then back into the cover is a bit slow. Overall, the movement is slower than in Gears of War. I...

I am playing Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 after finishing Gears of War solo on hardcore and co-op on insane. The graphics is impressive, almost better than Gears of War. The cover system is good too - no need to press any button, just get close enough to get into cover. However, popping out and then back into the cover is a bit slow. Overall, the movement is slower than in Gears of War. I guess that is because GRAW 2 has a bit more strategy than Gears, which is mostly action-oriented.

I highly recommend this game. It is much better than other shooters, such as Rainbow Six Vegas and Lost Planet.

Another great Tom Clancy story

Strengths: Amazing graphics and sound, exciting story

The Tom Clancy games continue to impress with stories that grip you and production in graphics and sound that give you the feeling of participating in the latest action blockbuster. Ghost Recon 2 is no different. Continuing the great storyline from the first one, this one picks up right after those events. You end up fighting between Mexico and the Southern US border. This time you have more...

The Tom Clancy games continue to impress with stories that grip you and production in graphics and sound that give you the feeling of participating in the latest action blockbuster. Ghost Recon 2 is no different. Continuing the great storyline from the first one, this one picks up right after those events. You end up fighting between Mexico and the Southern US border. This time you have more support that you can call in as well as the Mexican resistance to back you up. Everything has been improved in this sequel from the already superb first one. The graphics have tons of technical nuances that make everything look very realistic, the animations haven't shown any of the problems that occasionally cropped up in the first, the sounds once again immerse you in the center of the action. With games like this, Ubisoft will continue to get my business.

Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2

Strengths: -Graphics, Sound, Single-Player

Weakness: -Multi-Player

I had never played the original GRAW for xbox 360, but I've always been a fan of the Tom Clancy games. I usually like the Rainbow 6 and the Splinter Cell series a little more than the GR series, but this game is definitely starting to change my mind. The graphics and animations on the game are incredible, especially in the single player mode when you can see your character and you have a better...

I had never played the original GRAW for xbox 360, but I've always been a fan of the Tom Clancy games. I usually like the Rainbow 6 and the Splinter Cell series a little more than the GR series, but this game is definitely starting to change my mind.

The graphics and animations on the game are incredible, especially in the single player mode when you can see your character and you have a better view of the whole screen.

The single player more in general is really strong - the addition of being able to control the drones and everything is very cool and definitely adds to the depth of the game. The environments are huge and the levels are a lot of fun.

The only issue that I really have with the game is the multiplayer, which I usually play much more than single-player on games. The game is extremely different in this mode. You can't switch to a 3rd person view, you move very quickly and awkardly, and you cant really take cover behind things. With that said, it's still fun, just not as good.

Overall the game is pretty great and I would definitely recommend it.

GRAW 2

Strengths: Good gameplay, graphics and sounds

Weakness: Continuation of GRAW 1?

I think GRAW 2 is very good and much better than GRAW 1. Its gameplay, AI, graphics and sounds, all of its game aspects, are improved. I like it a lot. I don't think it bothers me, but some people might think that it is a GRAW 1.5 because it is a continuation of GRAW 1 in some ways. Overall, it is an excellent game to play for fun.
