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 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
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!

Unstable game December 23, 2007 1 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am just going to leave a short review. Storyline is just average. Game play takes some getting use to since you have to control other soldiers/vehicles.
I would have rated this game a little higher if it wasn't for the fact that the game constantly crashes. I would have to quit the game at least every other checkpoint. Needless to say this was pretty frustrating. This is not the fault of my PS3 since I have played many other games without any problems. There doesn't seem to be a way to patch this game; maybe I just couldn't find it.

GRAW 2 is a FPS with a high degree of combat realism. The graphics look good for the most part. This game, like other Tom Clancy games, focuses more on combat realism than on action. You must take cover, just as you would in real life if you were in such gunfights. There is small margin for error. One or two hits and you are toast. Forget about healing from behind cover as you can in Resistance, Rainbow Six: Vegas, and other modern shooters. Waiting behind cover does not seem to make much difference in how much damage you can take. Forget about picking up health in the form of food or medkits. Again, the game is highly realistic. The way you can heal is by calling over a medic if you have one in your party. And herein lies one of the negatives about this game: poor AI. Your team members can be good soldiers if you manually target an enemy and command them to attack it. However, I feel that there is too much babysitting of your teammates when they should be able to work more independently. Often when you call your medic he is slow to respond, and may run right through gunfire getting himself killed as if he was waiting for the exact wrong time to come over.
Additionally, there are annoying flashing pop-ups that come on your screen quite frequently which will not leave your screen unless you hit select, go to an aerial reconnaissance screen, and then hit select again to return to the game. Some players may like to get a bird's eye view so often, but forcing players who just want to play the game to do this is obnoxious.
Bottom line: Get Rainbow Six: Vegas instead. It is similar in play, has a good degree of combat realism, though with the ability to heal within a few seconds behind cover. There are no obnoxious pop-ups either.
