Clancy's model army fights dirty on 360.........

If there's any game on the 360 that will make owners of ordinary XBOXes feel compelled to upgrade,GRAW is the one.There's no way you could confuse this for a game that could have been done on the original machine hardware,even if its also available on the xbox and ps2.

On the 360,it looks staggeringly good.I'm aproaching a point now where visual effects are becoming so convincing,they're actually quite hard to spot-and thats where Ghost Recon is at.It's almost real.

Sadly,the illusion is shattered whenever you watch one of your dumb squaddies getting shot in the face because,in the middle of a huge gunfight,you missed the button for making him hide behind a wall.Or when your commanding a helicopter,as well as your team of special needs soldiers,and the stupid thing gets shot down by a man witha pistol,just because you were to busy to issue orders to fire upon individual enemies!

Apart from quibbles like that,and a horribly difficult helicopter shooting gallery thats somewhat out of place here,its wonderfully good fun.I've never expirienced anything so stomach-churningly warlike- its dirty.Its dangerous,and if at times you don't feel completely in control,you might put that down to realism,too.If your feeling generous.

This is the most technically impressive thing on the 360.Blast with the solo campaign and you'll be all set to spend the next few months,taking on the world in the multiplayer.
