Before the release of GRAW, we all saw the Enthusiasticness of all of the Ghost fans out there. But did we know the real story. I am sure that most all people have played a ghost recon title over the ps2 and xbox and PC years. But was that enough to get us hooked. It sure was!!!!!
Graw is an amazing game. The graphics are sick and so realistic. It makes you feel like you are really in Mexico City. We thought that halo was good but GRAW just takes its place any day. GRAW is just so amazing that I almost dumped in my pants playing it. Come on, we have the cross-com that lets you see what you fellow ghosts see and what other teammates see. Then we have the tactical map were we can command vehicles to kill enemies. And those futuristic weapons we have.

The only thing that could have been different was the online play. Playing on Xbox Live never left me completely satisfied. That was the one aspect of the game that could have been cleaned up. Sure it is great, I won't argue with that. But the style is just so much different than the campaign mode. For example, the style of running and sliding and diving is way different. You can't slide and your dive is really cheap. I think this has to do with the different locations that the game was made in. Ok in the main ubi location but who know where the multiplayer was created. For all we kknow it could have been made in India. Overall the game is still amazing and just because the multiplayer is not perfect does not mean you should not still buy this game. It is the best ghost recon game yet. The game gets a ***** in Graphics, ***** in Game play, and an overall of *****. So what are you waiting for? Buy it now, before they are gone.

Amazing

Visually stunning, and the most fun I've had in a video game since Halo. Easily the best 360 game.

Save Your Money - DONT BUY THIS GAME

I've played just about every game in the Tom Clancy Series on playstation, PC and now X-Box. Therefore, its obviously an understatement to say I've always been pleased with the games.

This however is a disaster.

Simply put its quite possibly the most over-rated game I've ever played.

Sound is excellent, graphics good, but game play horrible. Previous games in this series have focused on realism, strategy and skill. This one doesn't live up to its predecessors.

As this title has been highly touted for "the next generation console" X-Box 360 I guess I would expect more and something closer to realism. To give an example: After completing the training and your opening mission you are instructed to fly into Mexico to search for the missing President of the United States who was on a visit to Mexico. You are positioned in an open door of a helicopter with a heavy machine gun and under attack from various Mexican rebels shooting mostly with rifles. These rebels while taking heavy fire from your weapon barely seek cover, rarely react to this barrage and at times are hit squarely by your fire and don't respond. Hardly next genereation AI. The helicopter apparently is not equipped with any other weaponry, you have no "teamates" supporting you so it merely is a shootout. Its tedious and does nothing to mimick reality. After all you are part of a special forces group attempting to rescue the President and all you have is one helicopter circling an area with a machine gun?

Your "teamates" are useless. Besides running into your field of fire during firefights, they do NOTHING. If you direct them to an area they'll follow your orders and then fight...while standing up in the open taking fire. No attempt to take cover, no rhyme or reason to providing suppressive fire. They literally just stand there and fire until they're hit and you have to attempt to rescue them.

No strategy, no realism. I could cite further examples but you get the picture.

Do yourself a favor. Save your money and wait for a real game like Call of Duty 3.

First off, we never finish a game. But when it comes to this one, we got stuck on a rooftop somewhere near the end and it really bothered both he and I.
The game lacks a realistic feel, due to the lack of blood.
The actual game itself was O.K.
The multiplayer, we couldn't figure that out either. Were in Iraq and have a system link. We both felt the multiplayer would make us feel better about getting stuck in the game, but we couldn't!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION IS WAY OFF?

Hey, gamers! It's WEASEL OF ROME (my gametag) on my mom's name.
Ok.......now for da review. This game is awesome, but can sometimes get boring and really hard. The graphics are better than any other game on the market! Even if you don't like games like this, buy it just to look at the stunning visuals! Believe me, you won't be dissapointed!

ITS GREAT!!!!!!!!!

I have played this game to my end point something like 12 times. This took like 6 hours. How did it take 30 minutes to beat it? Simple. Every time that I called in an Apache to take out a tank, it would come in low, sweep around the tank, and then leave without firing a shot, never to return. The tank that it should have killed then murdered the president of mexico, ending the game. w00t. 1337, dude. $2 per minute of first time through gameplay is the worst deal on a video game that I have ever gotten, hands down. If I had paid $30 for Doom95 Freeware, that would have been a better deal. Also, leading up to this point, I fell through several obscure patches of dirt into hewhaY (also known as avoheJ, hallA, or doG), the creatorless zone; hence the name. I don't know how many bugs there would or would not have been in the rest of the game, but it seems that there were at least a few.

It doesn't matter how good a game you can't play is.

Am I lost or what?

After doing some homework before buying this game. At amazon, many reviews gave it 4 - 5 stars. At gamespot, it received 9.2 rating. I purchased this game and I was very disappointed with this game.
I really do not understand what is my role in this game as a FPS. Most of the shooting is done by my team mate but not me, all I do is ordering them to move forward and do the work while I do nothing, If I move in front of them, I am sure the game will finish sooner. So what I am doing in this game?
after owning this game for 3 months, I still struggle to understand the game play. I do not enjoy it at all. I wish I can give it to the next person for $3.00.
