The BEST shooter out for the PS3!

The graphics and gameplay alone blow Rainbow Six Vegas out of the water. Then throw in all the online goodies like the sweet lobby and ranking system and 32 multiplayer maps along with every weapon you can think and you have what amounts to the best online shooter on any console.

Yea, I agree with the first reviewer.

This is a fun game to play. I don't spend too much money on games for the PS3 and yet I bought this after trying the demo. It takes a bit to learn all the different weapons and controls but quickly becomes immersive afterwards.

Smooth gameplay

I have only spent five hours on the clock, and tried the training and online multiplayer. The graphics is phenomenal with a lot of vivid details. There are 40 multiplayer maps. Many of them allow you to set the current weather conditions, and the objects show up accordingly. Developers in their video interview are very proud of the graphic presentation of explosions, smokes, could, sunshine, ..etc, and I see why.

Online gameplay is smooth. The battlefields are decorated with all sorts of things. Character movements are very life like. The motion sensor controls are interesting, but can be not so responsive.

The multiplayer maps are big and packed with features like drone order (which lets you spy on enemy territory that finally reveals their exact positions on your first person view), teammate view, injured and wait for medication or die and spawn now, ..etc.

But for me who enjoy the upclose duel with enemies in Resistance Fall of Man's Nottingham map, GRAW 2 instead is somewhat slow. Some maps seem to be huge enough for 32-64 players (but only 16 or 32 supported, not sure), so players like to be snipers. Accuracy is highly emphasized (also better than Resistance), but there is no knife or punch. Slow running, small figures in first person views, and lack of knife/punch is why I'm taking one star off GRAW 2. Also to me, Resistance wins in the online gameplay fun factor if watching how you gun down the enemies up close is what intoxicates you.

It does let you carry a rifle, a handgun, and two kinds of grenades. Weapon change takes about 2-3 seconds, which is closer to the real situation.

Great Game

If your thinking about buying this game you should it's very fun and the graphics and Audio are amazing! This game is very realistic. Im from El Paso, TX which is a sister city to Cuidad Juarez it was fun and amazing to see my home town of El Paso, TX in the game as Fort Bliss is in El Paso. Also the writing on the Mountain "CD JUAREZ LA BIBLIA ES LA VERDAD" is really on the mountain that is located in Juarez and is visable from the freeway here in El Paso. Oh and by the way it translates to "THE BIBLE IS THE TRUTH, READ IT.

Best Ghost recon yet

I am currently renting this game and have almost beaten it. The Graphics are stellar, the best i've seen on a PS3 game yet. I'm not sure how it did compared to the Xbox 360 version, but for PS3, this is definitely one of the better games.
You can switch between over-the-shoulder view, and first person, although in first person you can't see your weapon, unlike the prequel. The new zoom functions on the weapons are a nice touch, along with the ability to hold your breath and steady your weapon. Has many more features than any of it's predecessors, including the new spy-drone, MULE, and biographical data on your enemies, i.g. their health readout display.
The cons: Multiplayer seemed to be more directed towards an online audience, and if you do not have internet, it may seem frustrating to set up a game at home for multiplayer. Steep learning curve, for a new person it might take a couple training levels to learn how to use all the controls. The multiplayer could've used a bit of a revamp for more levels and modes of play. The game occasionally freezes up, typically after 3-4 straight hours of play.
Pros: Weapons details are much more realistic than any other Ghost to date. Explosions are at an all time high with this new Ghost. I like the unparraleled joy of filling a vehicle full of lead that the enemies are hiding behind and watching it blow debris everywhere and mushroom-cloud smoke into the air while it wipes out all the enemies in a huge radius.
There are several new selections of weapons to choose from than any before.
Overall, has the potential to be the best First person shooter PS3 in th market, a fine example of what Blu-ray can do in the right hands.

amazing......

This is one of the best games out there, the visuals are as good as the gameplay. True next-gen war experience. The way we get to control different teams and vehicles gives us a good tactical experience.The game looks very good on a PS3. The single player is short though, but there is an extensive multiplayer.This is a must buy for all who have a PS3.

As real as it gets

After playing the demo I was hooked but nothing could prepare me for the full game. This game sticks to the basics and does that really well.It is a very believeable game and the fluid controls add to this experience.

I really enjoyed it...

Co-op offline, vs offline, online play, single player mode offline --- all these features come in a lot of games, however the graphics, the realism & the nearly-unlimited opponents do not.

Overall, I liked this game, the co-op should of let you view third-person, but other than that, I felt the modes were awesome.

Customize your character...

Battle 50+ people at one time with a friend helping...

It's a great game.

Excellent combat action

The gameplay it's absolutely great. It's like being there for real. Besides, the game offers a variety of game modes including multiplayer. it's excellent for strategies and objective accomplishments.

Wonderfully Done...Wish the SP Campaign was much longer

Hello Folks,

This is a fantastic game.

I have had no framerate issues so far.
The graphics are superb.
The explosions are awesome!
I love the use of drone, mule, teammates, air support.

What I wish they "fixed"

Make coop split screen have the same functionality as the single player mode. In other words, have the drone more operational, have a squad of AI, even if it is two for you, and two for your split-screen friend,etc.

I thought you could send your squad mates in differing directions from each other, but it seems you can't...you only have "regroup" and "go to", but it is for all of them. I could of sworn I saw a game review where it shows that you can tell each teammate precisely where to go...

Have a longer single player campaign.

Have that multiplayer map pack that they have made for the Xbox 360.

Regards,

John
