The 10 best Tom Clancy games of all time

GR:
Tom Clancy's straight-laced military stories have been fertile ground for video games since 1987, when Argus Press Software (who?) released The Hunt For Red October on ZX Spectrum. However, the series' popularity didn't truly escalate until the original Ghost Recon appeared on PC in 2001, capturing the tense military thrills of the books and marrying them with hardcore tactical shooting. Since then, our Tom has gone from strength to strength in video game form, spawning several established franchises (and a few one-offs) that encompass first-person shooters, flight sims, strategy, stealth and even turn-based battles. The latest - Tom Clancy's The Division - is an MMO shooter, and looks all set to carry the Clancy name into the future. But before that, let's look at the whole series history and pick out the ten best Clancy games of all time.

Personally, I still love Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon. The combat felt authentic, and you had to think tactically about things. I'm not sure the same can be said about today's First Person War Sims.

It's like a slow moving train wreck..

Rainbow Six is actually a great IP for something like this. I'm assuming it's likely similar to XCOM, and that would be a perfect fit for R6.

I’m always excited for a good turn based strategy game.

PapaBop16d ago

Agreed, I'm excited to see how it turns out, hopefully they do Ubi it up.

DodoDojo16d ago

It's my favorite game genre so I'm sold already.

It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.

Obnoxious MT shops might not go with a game like this. Are they sure they want to make an actual game?

SpacedDuck17d ago

Another game that will launch, flop and result in people getting fired.

Just shut up and make a new Splinter Cell and stop milking Siege and make a new Rainbow Six 3 style Rainbow Six game.

S2Killinit16d ago

Do you sound this annoying in real life?

Michiel198916d ago

their turn based mario games were pretty good

Inverno17d ago
