360 Ghost Recon Who's getting it?

This is coming out next Wednesday and I can not wait. This was the one game I wanted at launch. Who else will be getting this next week? I just hope it is more like the GR1 than GR2. Can not wait to play co-op online in 3rd person, the 2 things I did not like in COD2.

I should be picking it up at launch. Depends on when I finish Grandia III and if I decide to purchase 24 this week (still waiting to see a review). All the videos I've downloaded look amazing.

I'm getting it for Xbox. Not the 360.

I'll probably pick it up, assuming I get my 360 back from MS by then.

I'm getting it even though it's against my better judgement.

Someone sell me on it. I think it and Burnout (which I'm definitely getting) come out the same day.

I'm definitely getting this one. They did a complete overhaul on mechanics and physics. It's the way the GR series should have been in the first place.

I'll probably get it used for 360. It's not worth $60.

I've never bought a GR game before. My wife got me one of them and I thought it was the worst thing I ever popped into my XBOX.

With that said I already have my copy of GR:AW paid off and I got lucky enough to have off the day after it comes out so I'll be playing it and Burnout all day long on Thursday.

I plan on getting this game for sure. But, $60 is a little high. I'm hoping Fry's has a sale during the first week.

I loved the original Ghost Recon and Ghost Recon: Island Thunder, but I couldn't get into Ghost Recon 2 at all. It felt like just another FPS to me. I hope GR:AW is more like the first 2 titles.

For those of you who are sold on this one -- what is it about this game that you are so looking forward to?

After reading IGN's review of 24, this will be the next game I pick up. I wasn't too much a fan of the first few but I really liked 2 when the switched to the 3rd person view. This will keep me busy till Oblivion comes out.

I want to get it it, but I have to wait. Between the 360 and PSP I have spent too much on video games lately so now we need to get caught up on the finances again. Not to mention, I still have PD0, Condemned and FNR3 to play and beat on the 360.

These are my feelings as well. I really hope it is a return to GR1's glory, or I will have to wait on Rainbow 6 later this year.



I like this game because to me it is the best FPS out there, although with the new 3rd person view I guess it is not truley a FPS. It has more options for online play than the standard Vs, Flag, etc; it has co-op mission and co-op vs. bots, both of which I really enjoy. I like Battlefield and Halo, but the constant run and gun or run-gun-die-run-gun-die gets a little old and I want more tactics and team work in my shooters.

I wasnt going to get this game but I have been dying for a new 360 game and I might break down and get it. the videos look great but I have never played a ghost recon game and have never been too big into team based online play since I dont have enough friends into it to get a game going and I am afraid to end up with a team of little kids or a team of expert player since I am just a casual player.

My prediction: I will be trading both GRAW and Burnout back in to Gamerush by 4/1. Chances are, Oblivion, too.

How long have those Ghost Recon Development Diaries been on the Xbox Live Marketplace? I just saw them today and downloaded them. The game looks really interesting. IGN also gave co-op impressions, and I really like the idea of up to 16 players playing co-op missions. I hope I can dig up some money, because I think I wanna pick this up next week.
