GRAW
Monday, January 22nd, 2007I started playing Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter again this weekend, and i must say that my inital reaction to this game was very negative. I did not like the play control on my PC, but after buying this game for the multi-player options only on my Xbox i played the Campaign mode. ~8 hours later i finished what i must say was the best (only behind Gears of War) gaming experience i have had in a long time. As i make no claim to be a author, i am going to give you some quick bullet points what i liked:
- Teammate AI
- The best point here is they don’t suck, if you tell them to goto a corner they will move to the wall, and one will peek around and look for a threat, if they see one they take turns moving out from cover to fire thus providing great cover fire.
- Cross-Com
- This has several points i will go into later, but the best part of Cross-Com for this item is the Drone, and being able to see what your teammates see.
- Cross-Com: Apache Control
- Ok, take the best realistic combat FPS and add in the ability to control a full fledged AH-64D that you can order to destroy anything you can target.
- Cross-Com: Blackhawk Control
- Much like the Apache, but with with a mini-gun. Death from above.
- Cross-Com: M1A1 Abrams / Striker Combat Vehicle
- Who knew with only (Move Forward/Move Back/Stop/Fire) you could cause so many things to blow up.
- Weapon: SCAR-LCQC
- Take a hell of a assault rifle, throw in a great scope, and silence it.
This brings me back to why i started this post, GRAW2 is the game i am most looking forward to this year, even above Halo 3.
