gamespot writes: It took a year for Ubisoft to nail down details about its latest Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon installment, confirming in February that the game would bear the subheader Future Soldier. That left a loose end, however, as it did not account for Ghost Recon: Predator, a hypothesized name for the tech-savvy shooter that was first floated by the Australian Classification Board.
Ghost Recon's Predators will likely also be future soldiers.
Now, it appears clarity for that question has arrived courtesy of the Australian service's US equivalent, the Entertainment Software Rating Board. According to a listing in the ESRB's online database, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Predator will arrive for the PSP bearing a T for Teen rating. As could be expected of a modern-day military shooter, Predator carries content descriptors for blood, language, and violence.
GamingUnion.net: It's not news that the handheld scene sees a plethora and over-saturation of games that hit the market. Most of them aren't that great and the good ones are really quite far and few between. Ubisoft is easily one of the more notable publishers that constantly fart out really shoddy handheld titles, most of which are usually movie tie-ins or mere after-thoughts of the big boys on PS3 and Xbox 360.
There are some good titles, but they are far and few between. It's a shame, really.
Tenchu, despite its low Metacritic score, was a really decent game. Much better than Ubi's recent stuff.
There really is next to no good games made by Ubisoft on a portable. I checked every GBA, DS, and PSP game they've published - the best I could find were LostMagic and Tenchu. LostMagic was mediocre, but unique at least.
In fact, Ubisoft's console games are pretty bad too. Without Assassin's Creed, they basically have nothing. Last generation they had Prince of Persia and Rayman which were excellent series but now they are not quite the same. I love the Rabbids, but I'd like to see a good new Rayman game.
Bloodlines was really bad. It had the potential but I think Ubi dropped the ball with it.
It's because generally handheld games are spinoffs of console games, and spinoffs often suck the big one
I agree wholeheartedly, the spinoffs/ports are just really bad. The games that were specifically designed for handhelds, however, are usually pretty good.
It's just disappointing that they can take their premium franchises, like Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell, and butcher them so much.
The PoP games on the PSP are actually really good. The sound issues that were reported on the reviewed UMD versions aren't present on the digital versions at all.
Plus some large amount of extra content, yes. And they, like the console ones, were very good.
What's your point?
Ubisoft has revealed an all-new promotion exclusively on PlayStation Network, in which a selection of Tom Clancy branded videogames now available at a greatly reduced price. From Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Essentials to Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six VEGAS 2, there’s enough shooting action available to please any action game fan.
nah the crappy ports of splinter cell , r6 vegas and ghost recon for the PSP are a waste of money.
And Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for 20 is a joke.
rainbow six vegas was fun but rainbow 2 wasn't fun for me .... i remember playing a splinter cell on ps2 and it was good but don't worth buying it again .... i prefer buying splinter cell conviction again on the ps3 ...
Because they're angry that it's better than Live! j/k
(no need to remove my bubbles and brand me a troll! It's just a joke!)
Only RSV2 for PS3? Hmm, waiting more Tom Clancy's games to be included to the promotion.
Rainbow Six: Vegas was great but Vegas 2 was just alright. Splinter Cell for PS3 wasn't all that good but GRAW 2 was pretty good. Out of all the Tom Clancy games for PS3 I think Rainbow Six Vegas 1 was the best gameplay wise but you can tell it was a launch title by the graphics if that turns you off, if it does your missing out on a great game.
Before you get your hopes up, you should know that this is not a tactical shooter based on the motion picture classic Predator. If it were, it might have been more enjoyable, and it’s really a shame that Ubisoft hasn’t done some sort of licensing magic to make that happen.
