ghost recon 1.5, but that's not really a bad thing

if you liked graw 1 you WILL like graw 2, and if you're new to the ghost recon series there's no better time to start. as for me i've been a avid ghost recon fan since ghost recon 2 on xbox, it was the first game i played consistently online and became really good at. graw 2 takes place immediately after the events of the original and is just a continuation of the story which even though it's not the best story it certainly leads you on an exciting, albeit very short, journey. i beat the game on my first playthrough on hard in about 5-6 hours. i should also note that if you're looking for some easy achievement points this game definitely is that game. during the short single player campaign you can expect pretty fair and challenging ai and usually helpful ai teammates. even though the single player is real short there's plenty of reason to buy this game, especially at an attractive $30. the lasting power lies in the multiplayer which can be really intense and tactical. the only turn-off is that its been out for a while now and the online community is probably on the downside and everyone is at an advantage for having the game for some time already which just means the learning curve will have increased. theres also a co-op portion of the game, quite extensive it would appear, but i didn't really get to experience this because i don't know anyone with the game and don't like playing co-op w/ random people.

moral of the story: come for the single player, stay for the online
