IGN AU was given the privilege of being the first in the country to serve time with Tom Clancy's latest. They very happy to report back from their time in the field with the message that yes, it's everything a sequel should be - bigger, better and meatier than the first. It's only after playing the sequel that IGN realized what the original didn't do so well. While the first had the oomph of an automatic 12-gauge assault shotgun, GRAW2 impresses with the decisive power of a Barret .50 cal sniper rifle.
After clearing a couple of levels with the ghosts, IGN thought they'd fill you in on the Top 5 improvements they noticed during their tour of duty.

Wait till you guys see all the Pay To Win micro-transactions that are in this game!! Yes, everything from buying weapons (NOT just skins), to attachments, to skill unlocks, to "time savers", etc....and this is just naming a few. Check out the videos online for Breakpoint's Store!
I was so jacked for this game, but now it's a pass just like this year's COD.
I'm predicting that these greedy companies will soon be the death of video games as we know it.

Pretty sure you can get this for 50 cents on g2a right now lol.
Free game is a free game though. Mostly busting balls; MS has been offering a fantastic amount of content, and asking little for it.
I had like 2 copies of this game and both jakked up when I tried loading it. So I've never played it. 3rd times a charm?
Carlos writes: "So, April is here already and I’m betting that, much like myself, you’re sat there with a shameful backlog of games that you had hoped to have already cleared by this point. Well, just to confuse matters even more the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for April 2019 are here, and that can only mean one thing - more games for you, for free, to either add to your backlog or to jump right on into straight away. First though, let’s take a look at the Xbox games on offer to see just which ones are worth your time and which you’d be best off leaving for a rainy day."
Technomancer is ok if you like the genre, I’ve never even heard of outcast. Battlefront 2 and ghost recon 2 were good for their time-but could be fun if you’re in the mood for them.
It’s a meh month.
The XB1 games not so much, but Battlefront 2 is awesome! They said somewhere that it might be playable online. I doubt that's true but if it is then that's a big deal considering how beloved BF2 multiplayer is.
Well, it sounds like they're making some headway. I'm skeptical that this is going to be much more than a prehash of the original since it's coming so soon after - but who knows? If they pull it off, I'll purchase. I just hope they're putting a lot of energy into fixing the mutliplayer. Party system please?!?! (When will developers finally figure out that in a post Halo 2 world, a party system is the only way to go for these kinds of games?!)
Why did IGN keep calling GRAW a launch title? It came out 4 months after 360's release, is that still considered launch?
very interesting read
Ok I LOVE the demo, this is a MUCH MUCH better game than the original. Everything is smoother, more easy to access and makes more sense, I really love the improvements, it helps to get you in the mood of the game for sure. The explosions and the sound are excellent really tying the whole experience together. It should definetly be wroth $60 and guys you need to remember the first game was built on a new system with new technology, new engines, cross com, being able to direct your team, it's the reasoning the first game took so long to make, everything was built from scratch. This game is already built, now it's just tweaked, added upon and made better, and now that leaves more time to actually design the game. Which if anything should have you excited because the story and scenes and locations are going to be bigger, better and more detailed. It's no re-hash, when have you picked up a Ubisoft game and really truly felt cheated or felt underwhelmed? Their a fantastic company and their HUGE, they have many studios, it's not like theirs 10 guys doing all their games 10 at a time. Try the demo you'll want to buy it afterwards
