GRAW 2 is, in many ways, the same as its predecessor. The single player campaign begins just 24 hours after the conclusion of the previous installment. It's a pretty standard Clancy plot and you have the same toys to play with as in the previous installment with the addition of a few new weapons (including a badass Russian counter-sniper rifle.).

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.
GRAW2 was fantastic back in the day. I had it on PS3, and for it's time, the graphics were great and the single player campaign was excellent. The multi-player was excellent too, especially since you had clan tools, you could make custom servers with any map with loads of options, like, dawn/dusk/afternoon and evening light settings, custom camo for each team, turn Night Vision on/off for both teams, and a bunch of other small options. There were also a whole bunch of different verses modes to choose from.
The co-op for GRAW2 was great also, with what I remember to be a total of around 10 co-op modes, like a full co-op campaign, helicopter hunt, terrorist hunt, and a bunch of others. 2005-2012ish was when you actually received great value for money. They don't make games packed with content like this anymore, and if they do, you either need to purchase a seasons pass for an extra $60.00, or you can buy each item separately, costing you an arm and a leg.
Back on PS2 Ghost Recon was also ahead of its time, with Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm, offering two (2) separate and full single player campaigns (one was from Island Thunder, and the other took place in Cuba, and was exclusive to the PS2), voice commands to your A.I. teammates in single player (Socom was also doing this at the time), a full multi-player suite with really well designed maps, and 4 player online co-op. This was one of my all time favorites on PS2.
Only real good GW was the original. everything after I simply did not consider good myself.
I've used it. I know it's a shady site but, at the end of the day, I'm the consumer. The place usually offers me the best deals.
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?

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."
Not bad for me. Going to play Ghost Recon 2 for the memories and interested in checking out Outcast, never played or heard of it before.
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.
Seriously lately the free games on the epic store have been better than the PS or Xbox offerings meanwhile the epic store is genuinely free!
Single player way too short, although quite big, there are only three levels, apart from that well executed.
Multi-player, really needs the cover system that single players has, as your entire charcter moves into sight when just having a little look around corners. It tends to be a little jerky on the movment and the lobby system can be EXTREMLEY slow and tedious but, once the game actually gets going is great fun dispite the problems.
Is this really the first review posted since release on here?
anyway, great game. leaps and bounds over the 1st one. there are several reasons is say that...but the bottome line is, i am having a lot more fun playing it than GRAW. I think there are tons improvements...but everyone else says a only a few here and there.
everytime i am playing i say, wow...why did they not mention that or this...o well.
o...and thank you ubi for putting clan support back in.
