Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter

Picked it up yesterday for my XBOX 360. Damn, or make that double damn. The graphics are good to say the least. But overall the gameplay is just so much improved over an already awesome game. They have dispensed with a lot of the cutscenes when you fly into acton. You get your orders and you go to work. It is a total immersion type feeling with this game. The squad leader UI is freaking easy to pick up so you can spend less time with game logistics and more time focused on the mission. I have just gotten started, but taking over a building with the aid of a UH-60 Blackhawk that would lay down targeted cover fire on command for me was damn impressive!

 

think this game is my next purchase

 

the commercial looks insane. i was hoping that was gameplay footage or they were being pretty sneaky by making a cut-scene that had game-play like elements (selection outlines on units, hud, etc.) can't wait till it hits the pc. i just hope they support more than 4 frickin players in multiplayer.

 

Yep, was wondering the same thing about this game. Makes me want to go and buy a 360 just to play these types of games.

 

i suck at this game

 

got it for the pc and man does it just plain suck. maybe it's good on the xbox 360, but i get the impression they didn't spend much time on the port.

i hate games that spend 90% of the cpu cycles on making it look pretty and only 10% on the game itself. that seems to be the case with this one. even at the lowest graphics settings, i feel like i'm wearing 200 pounds of armor -- the thing is laggy and painful to maneuver. and it's not like i have a crap system -- 3ghz p4 with a 6600gt. if you can't make a game that runs decently on that, then you need to do something else for a living.

conflict: global storm is a better game. much more fluid sense to motion. a way better feel in general.
