Boooooring.
User Rating: 2.9 | Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2 XBOX
The first Ghost Recon was an awesome game. Like Rainbow Six, you are able to lead your men to safety and into combat and hope that your commands and tactics don't end with casualities, but when this game was released, I played it for about 10 minutes and realized that Ghost Recon 2 have taken all of Ghost Recon 1's action gameplay. You end up in serious gun fights that usually end up killing all your stupid AI friends. The missions are really boring and multiplayer is just as bad. How come your enemies do twice the damage to you than you do to them? You and your squad have better weaponry, but your allies are stupid enough to waste sniper ammo in gun fights! Enemy AI is better than the first, but that doesn't mean that your friends are just as smart. You have different vision scopes, like night vision, that only blur your location so that even walking around in a scope usually gets you killed. I remember a mission in a pitch black forest where you are forced to use night vision. When you switch it on, you get a 'enhanced' view of your surroundings. Suddenly, an enemy shoots and kills me! How!? They don't have night vision! The graphics are acceptable, but gameplay is sluggish, commanding your men means you have to stop shooting, go to a menu, select a command, listen to your men say "Yes sir.", and watch them SLOWLY get into position. Not only that, but parts of a mission means you have use a certain command, but suddenly, my retarded ally says "No can do, sir." I must have heard my allies say that countless times! Hell, I'll blow their (bleep) heads off with my cheap gun. Also, I would like to have my gun sound like the size that it is. When I fire my machine gun in a gun fight, it takes the game to realize that "Oh, he pressed the trigger button on the XBox's clunky control. I had better make his gun fire." When my gun does fire, it sounds like a pee shooter!
