 One of the best shooters for PS3 September 9, 2008
Excellent game with a fairly lengthy single player campaign, and no bugs (that I found). Haven't tried multiplayer. One of the few games I own that I've replayed several times. Highly recommended.

As a dire fan of the PS3 and all First Person Shooter games, as well as a hard core gamer, this game was, i'm sorry to say, very dissapointing indeed.. Avoid Fancy Clancy's game -- stay well clear of it and go out there to Gamestop or wherever and buy Call of Duty 4 or GTA IV and unlike this game, you will not regret it. TRUST Me, and many others - Do Not Waste YOUR LIFE AND MONEY ON This Game that looks like it was made for dreamcast and never made it to production...
 Really good game May 29, 2008
This game is so much fun. i got it for my birthday and have been playing it since. The graphics are incredible for the PS3. And when you are under attack and there is bullets flying everywhere it shakes the screen and really makes you feel like your there. This game is almost perfect except for some few minor setbacks
1. The online play is sometimes choppy and it can be hard to get into a match.
2. This game should definitly have a co-op campaign or at least let you replay the missions with 2 player. They let you do that
3. They should let you be a little more stealthy like you could in the old ghost recons like Jungle Storm. In this game it seems like they always know wher you are.
I think anyone who like military shooters will really enjoy this game. It is very exciting and fun.
Wow makes fun! May 18, 2008
The Game ist Fantastic after 2 days the Gameplay was in.
The gametime is enough, the game himself is makes a lot of funny hours to play.
Musthave.
Realistic, fun shooter! February 18, 2008

Being a Tom Clancy game, I had my doubts about how good the game might be, since I'm not a big fan of his games...HOWEVER, I must admit, I just got this game 2 days ago, and I am having a blast playing it.
It's very realistic, and I must say that it's way better than Rainbow 6: Vegas, and overall, it's a really fun game to play.
The gameplay is very smooth, shooting is fairly realistic, you can hide & cover behind almost anything, there's a nice choice of weapons pick from, you can choose team mates, and your team mate intelligence is very good, (as is the bad guys). Your teammates just don't stand around in the open looking stupid. Heck, you can even shoot thru certain types of obstacles to get a bad guy, like thin walls, or something like that.
You have night vision, you've got help from a flying remote vehicle, you can place teammates anywhere you like, you can have your mates do some recon for you, you can even look thru your own team member's helmet cam for a different perspective on the battlefield.
The CONS:
GRENADES:
It's almost impossible to have a grenade land where you want it to land. Which is why I love the SOCOM games so much, because, in SOCOM, you know exactly how hard to throw it, and you KNOW without a doubt, where the grenade is going to land! In this game, it's guesswork, at best. And 9 times out of 10, you miss your targets....Which is a total waste of a good grenade!
ENEMIES:
Sometimes there are SO MANY bad guys at one time (in one concentrated area), it's a REAL CHALLENGE to get them all, unless you have a bazooka or something..... But, when there's 3000 bullets ripping your way, you sometimes can't even get a few shots out....Which is a bit annoying.
HEALTH:
While you can get help from a medic in this game, there's not much margin for error in terms of getting shot at...You better hide as often as possible....I guess it's just like real life, but, being a game, one would assume that even on an easy setting, that would change just a little bit??? But, it does not! So, be prepared for that when buying/playing this game.
OVERALL:
Other than those few bad points I have mentioned, it's a really fun game to play, it's very realistic, and has some pretty cool features...Let's face it, no game is perfect, and this game is no different, (and I still love my SOCOM games better) however, Ghost Recon 2 is certainly worth the price of admission, and probably the better (maybe the best) new military game thus far, for the PS3 game system!
