Graw 2 for the Xbox 360, where is the buzz for this game?

It's not even on the top ten most viewed Xbox 360 games and it is out a little under 2 weeks.

I for one personally cannot wait for this game being a huge GR fan.

So I hype Graw 2 (9.2) here on GS.

(There seems be alot of GRAW 2 hate lately)

WAtch this new preview of Graw 2. from Xboxyde.com

http://xboxyde.com/stream_3551_en.html

Skip to 12 minutes for the start.

Skip to 22 minutes for something cool.

There seems to be a this huge backlash against Graw for sum reason. Prolly cuz 2 other games featured "A Cover system but GRAW 2 is bucking the trends. (I like that)

GRAW was awesome only the SP didn't have any replay value, I hope that gets rectified.

Opinion, I'll play GRAW 1 or GRAW 2 before I even put the Vegas disc in again.

It's GRAW. GRAW is awful.

RSV is so much better.

And there are just too many other great games for 360 owners to even care about this game.

I will pass and just give it a rent to get the achievements.

Wow, I remember when I heard about the Xbox 360 for the first time.

The main Reason I brought my Xbox 360 at launch was in fact GRAW 1.

And it is still the only game I still play on Live. even after Gears live and Vegas Live.

For 60$ and a game I still play almost every night with friends on live since last March I say I got my $ worth.

Graw 2 online MP needs to come out so it can hold me over until MGS4 comes out. some time in 2008.

I know some people who loved it. I just thought the controls seemed clunky, and that it was a little boring. But you are surely not alone in loving it.

They fixed that already though a update that was implemented about 4 months ago. I'm sure Graw 2 will have it.

I remember spawning right in front of an enemy on several occasions, in GRAW MP. What a horrible game it was.

They also fixed the Spawn Camping though a system of never spawning you where a enemy is.

GRAW was alright but single player got boring fast imo.

If I'm going to play a game with squad based combat, it's going to have to be fast like GeOW.

GRAW was a great game.  GRAW2 looks to be a slightly prettier version.  There seems very little new, no-brainer changes like Live Co-Op Campaign didn't make it in, this AFTER the very lauded Gears and Ubi's own R6:Vegas' co-op.

GRAW2, by the media and the demos looks to be a rushed sequel (it has been less than a year) whose aim is to cash in on some quick money.  Albeit it does look a bit more polished and the great gameplay is still there, but it's a sequel that doesn't seem to improve on it's predecessor much and areas it absolutely should have improved, it didn't.

Nevertheless, as a fan of the series, I'm going to enjoy it as will many others, but it light of the kind of year 2007 is going to be for videogame releases, I can see why it's flying under the hype radar.

GRAW wasn't that great compared to the previous Ghost Recons in my opinion. So, I could really care less about GRAW 2. Plus it's coming out only one year ahead of the first GRAW. Makes you think how much they changed the game... I'll probably be sure to rent it though and just turn it back in when I'm done.

The thing that pissed me off about GRAW, is that there was no cover system in multiplayer.  That irked the hell out of me and I couldn't play like that after playing with cover through the whole singleplayer experience.  Hopefully GRAW 2 changes that.

For the record though, R6: Vegas is much better than GRAW is, IMO.  GRAW 2 will have to up the ante before I spend $60 on it.

they did really good with both actually. I believe every game after R6 3 destoryed R6 and Vegas brought it back to life. GRAW jsut got better- you mustve played a non X360 version

No, you dont understand. they removed all lot of what made R6 great, it used to be a very realistic tactical shooter, they removed a lot of that with lock down, and are still nowhere near as tactical with Vegas. Hard to believe, but at one point R6 was a one-shot kill shooter, with aspects such as as variating high, and distance leaning, all very real. But thats gone now. Vegas is still a good game, but its no longer very realistic.

I agree that the hype for GRAW 2 is far lower then I hoped it'd be. But at the same time I don't think it'll make AAA. I played the demo, really liked how they improved on things, but I just can't see how people will give it AAA. Mainly because most will see it as more of an expansion pack then a new game. But I can't wait till the launch of GRAW 2, and I'll be playing GRAW up till the day I get my hands on GRAW 2.
