• Where's Raven Shield?

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Yes, it is very addictive...online play gets a bit tired w/ all the clan BS and what not... So I tried Raven Shield, which is HELLA fun - SAS-style hostage rescue and a butt-load of weapon types (more than GhR stock). So I have not played GhR in a long time now. But why can not I find RvS (or any other Tom Clancy) app when I look for Raven or "Tom Clancy"? It does not seem to be on here. And Splinter Cell is coming out soon....

It's a fantastic game, and it can only get better now that you can communicate directly with your teammates. Having to stop in the middle of a firefight and give strats is really a pain.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I love military games and I like 'em hard and realistic. No extra ammo, no health, and no extra lives. With that said, Ghost Recon gets it right. I am a big fan of Rainbow Six and Rogue Spear, so as you can imagine I was pretty excited to get a copy of Ghost Recon for OSX. Ghost Recon is pretty different from the previous games in both game play and graphics. The planning interface is more informational than graphical. I'm not sure how I feel about this. On one hand it's easier to set up your team, but on the other it isn't as much fun. The graphics and sound are pretty good, but not the best out there. I'm probably a little spoiled from playing Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. One thing I really liked graphics wise was the uniforms. Your snipers look more like a tree or a bush than a soldier. This also gives them some extra stealth and the enemy has a harder time trying to spot them. But the real amazing thing to Ghost Recon is the game play. When you send your teams out, you better secure all possible angles and move in slow, otherwise be fully prepared to have all your guys picked off one by one. Almost every time I get lazy and skip by an area, some terrorist comes up behind my guys while they are laying in the dirt and shoots them in the back. This brings me to another cool thing about this game, the AI. The computer players are good. Here's a good example. I tried to secure a corner of a building by standing right up next to it. I was able to pick off a handful of terrorists when BAM, one of my guys got hit with a grenade. As soon as the AI figured out what I was doing, it changed strategies. How's that for realistic? Here's one final thing I liked about the game, the weapons. Rogue Spear gave you a ton of machine guns to use but most of them were crappy. Ghost Recon gives you only good guns and everything from anti-tank rockets to rocket propelled grenades. I love blasting one of those anti-tank grenades into a room full of terrorists. This game isn't like Quake or Return to Castle Wolfenstein. There are no monsters or zombies, just terrorists and your team. It's more of a simulator than a game I guess, but it's still a ton of fun. I used to have a view of the World Trade Center from my window. Now it's just a memory I keep fresh while I clear board after board of Ghost Recon.
