A Real Review

The reviewers for the ps2 version of ghost recon two arent really seem like they have no knowledge of games at all. They exaggerated every con in the game, and left out every pro. IF YOU WANT A REAL REVIEW, READ THIS. Most websites are usually biased for xbox. I think it is quite odd when I see Ghost Recon 2 for xbox get an 8.8, and ps2 get a 6.6, I tried them and they both look, and play the same to me. If you see a low score for this game on ps2, you should question its legitimacy.

Now for the review...
Ghost Recon 2 poses an interesting story about a war sparking with the US, and North Korea. The Ghosts are sent in to investigate and to take out any threats. It could have a better story, but this is good enough to make an exciting game. The game gets annoying at times when you have to restart mission because you got killed, sometimes theres some trial and error in it. The Graphics are way, way better than the reviewers say they are. The characters and enemies are in very good detail. Better than the smeared faces and mish-mashed graphics of jungle storm. I played this game with an open mind, (like I usually do with games, instead of finding every last flaw like websites and certain reviewers on amazon) and found it fun, but not as fun as MGS3, or KillZone, or Socom II. There are some pretty intense firefights in levels sometimes, you need to direct your team to throw grenades, provide cover fire, or move in on them to win these battles, or you'll get wasted.
Run and gun does not work well, you need to take cover, and move from cover to cover to survive. The game is like Socom a lot. The graphics are good, the gameplay is fun and if you like Socom I or II, you gotta check it out. You really feel like special forces at times, sneaking in on them, and getting past the enemy with ease. I shall end this review with pros and cons

Cons
-The AI could be better, but hey, the game is still kick ass.
-The game doesn't suck you into the battle as much as Socom 2, or Killzone.
-The bullet affects are choppy at times, but it doesnt destroy the game.

Pros
-The ragdoll physics are perfect, no twisting body parts, and no flipping around from a gunshot like in Shell Shock.
-The gameplay is fun, and it can get pretty intense sometimes
-The sound and music is great, one of the best I've seen for a game lately
-You really feel like special forces when your fighting an enemy sometimes

I conclude that this game is worth being on your wish list for the holidays. If youve never played or really got into Military games like Socom, KillZone, or MGS3, you should rent it. Even rent it if you like those kind of games just to be sure. Thanks for reading my review, and Happy Holidays! :)

Plain fun

Let me start off by saying that Ghost Recon 2 (GR2) is not as good as the first ghost recon. Even though, I still think that the graphics are great and the overall story of the game is good to. As a recent PS2 owner the 3rd person combat took some getting used to, but it has a low learning curve. I would reccomend this game to people who are NOT new to the first person genere.

Don't know?

I got this game but i haven't played it yet. I'm on vacation but I don't have my ps2. I read some of the reviews and some were good but the ones that weren't good worry me. I hope I'll like it. If i don't well i don't know. It may look cool but it might not be cool to play. I got it for only $20 so if it's not good I'll try online. Some people say online is awsome. Anyway I have to wait to play.

Great game

One of the best shooter games of all times. Equal to if not better then SOCOM. Plus you can save as you go if your smart enough to figure out how to pause and save. Worth the $29. If you think your good, like I did, play online and get schooled.

Awsome Tac game

this game is pretty good, not the best. The online play is what stands out. Its really fun compared to all hte games i have (i dont have socom or killzone). The only bad thing is that the framerate gets choppy sometimes, and there are rather long load times. Single player is pretty good, AI is kinda dumb though

pretty good

this game was pretty good. i really liked the graphics and the controlls were easy. the only bad thing was your teammates. they rarely fire and almost kill 1 out of every 4 people you kill. the missions were long and u couldnt save but it was easy so i thought who cares f u cant save in a mission. this was the best shooter game i played but if you dont like this one i suggest halo or medal of honor thoes were also great games but this was AWSOME!
