    Multiplayer in this game was the most fun I ever had aside from Halo 3. I miss those days. It was so sad seeing the multiplayer fade away.

    Good Review, but you should have mentioned that the XBox Version is a different game from the PS2 and Gamecube Versions. PS2 and GC are Identical to each other, the XBox Version has a different Story and different Levels. The PS2 / GC game is more like the first half of he overall Story / Conflict and the XBox one is the Second half.

    I remember this game being hard as nails for the original Xbox. The concept of a single-player shooter where you die in 2-3 shots was foreign to me. That on top of escort missions, being forced to survive waves of APC's, the time-limit segments... all of it is enough to both make me miss and not-miss this game at all.
    After seeing your review, I was unaware that there was even a save feature despite having put about a hundred hours in this game. I ended up restarting levels multiple times and being super-stressed during the more difficult segments of the game. In the end, I gave in to temptation and started using cheats halfway through.

    This is a great game. My only real criticisms is that I wish some of the levels were longer, and I wish there were more of them. I also wish you could pick your teammate's equipment, and have access to silenced rifles and sniper rifles, similar to PS2's SOCOM: US Navy SEALs series. For a game called Ghost Recon, there sure isn't a whole lot of recon going on! The enemy AI could be sharper as well, but sometimes they really impress me by quickly flanking and surrounding my team, but other times I'll shoot a guy in the head at point blank range with a .45, and the guys next to him won't even react. The game looks great for its time, too, the gameplay and graphics have aged quite nicely.

      Oh, the PS2 version is dreadful. For the "most popular system of all time", PS2 certainly got a ton of low-effort ports and terrible shovelware games. Xbox had less games, but at the same time, most of them were of higher quality. Quality over quantity, I say.

      I wouldn't say that personally. In fact, I'd say the GRAW series on PC is actually excellent, and is the last true tactical shooters to be released since SWAT 4.
      They play near identical to the original Ghost Recon, with various improvememts. It's extremely unforgiving and has a high level of realism.
      I'd encourage you to give it another chance, especially if you really enjoyed the original release and its expansions.

  • @someonehadto7841

    What was it with the PS2 ports of every Tom Clancy game sucking so bad? Did anybody else ever notice that? It seemed like the Xbox installments were always the best version, ESPECIALLY when it came to Splinter Cell.

    • @fredherbert7920
      @fredherbert7920 3 роки тому

      PS2 rarely had good ports, I've noticed. Take Brothers In Arms, for example - the Xbox version is an excellent port of the PC version, with only very minor differences in between. Good graphics, good sound, all's well. But the PS2 version has horrible tinny sound, the AI is horrible, and the Graphics look like a late PS1 era game. I don't know why PS2 always got shafted, since it had plenty of genuinely good games - Twisted Metal: Black, Metal Gear Solid 3, BLACK (which was also on Xbox), Bully, etc.
      I know that some ports aren't actually made by the original developers, sometimes they outsource the ports to be made in China or something, and they probably just don't care. They don't have the passion of the main team in the U.S. or Europe or wherever, and just see the game as just another product to be pushed out. Sad.
