Well Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter & Fight Night round 3 are out tomorrow on the 360, anyone else apart from me excited about getting em..?

They both look MINT!!!!!!

Ubisoft are getting a few problems reported in with ghost recon (looking on their forums), but a patch will hopefully sort them.

EDIT: CRAP, CRAP, CRAP UBISOFT NEED SHOOTING :chow: :chow:

Well, i not got a 360, nor am i gonna get one cos i cant afford it, but i been checking fight night out and it looks utterly Jaw dropping. Ghost recon looks just as good too!

Yeah really cant wait now, finish work today at 1 so im going straight into game to spend spend spend..

Finally managed to complete COD2 lastnight also, I really wanted to complete that before getting into another game, so im chuffed.

The boxing does look totally mint, there is no HUD on the 360 version also, so you haveto read the opponents facial features and overall posture to sense how your doing in the fight, which I think is excellent.

Ghost Recon looks like its going to be good, Im holding my breath as Ive heard its a bit choppy/laggy in places, and there is alot of issues with the HUD not fitting in HD and game crashes. Apparenty there is no cross com in multiplayer so you have to guess who is talking to you.

Barra post a little review when you get your first playtest later, ill do the same.

G.R.A.W mini review by Worm

The game itself is totally ace! the cross com really works well, and lets you know of spotted enemys etc.
The ability to give specific commands to AV's, UAC's and Choppers as well as your teammates is really good, you can get them to move anywhere and shoot down specific targets, or cover your while you run.
It's also alot better in the fact you dont have loads of different options, you have regroup on your postion, or goto (simply look at a point and press up on the D-Pad), works the same with the vehicles only its better to do that via you map which is also great as its 3D.

One thing I will say is dont rush in, move your squad with you in turns to cover each other, this will help you to spot enemys better.

Gameplay 1/10
Really good, crashed twice, but hasnt stopped me.
EDIT: 3 times, wasting my time, bollocks to it.
Graphics 9/10
Wow, what can I say, the draw distance is amazing, no apparent clipping, a few strange bits where the screen goes really dark for no reason is annoying but generally sexual to look at (no slowdown either which I was worried about). The level of detail is also really shocking, you can sit and drool for ages.
Sound 9/10
Again, really good, has to be in 5.1 though and LOUD!
Lasting appeal 8/10
Its a big game and should have you playing for some time, oh yeah at its on L!ve ? :nuts:


Fight night round 3 mini review by Worm

Currently playing my way up through fights to get more known.

Gameplay 7/10
The control system takes some getting used to but after a few fights you soon get used to it, its easy to begin with you soon knock out in the first 1-2 rounds. Only gets harder after say 15 fights. You get annoying mini games before and inbetween the fights, such as training games and a cut man game, wiggle the sticks for 1 min etc. You can auto them but you dont get as much + points on your stats, as you would by doing these thing manually.
You have the usual edit boxer and shop options so you, and you can change them anytime though you career, which is good.
Graphics 9/10
It looks REAL :eek:
Sound 9/10
Good hiphop sound tracks, boxing sounds are great!
Lasting appeal 7/10
Its fairly long winded, there is not much sence of ranking. Oh yeah at its on L!ve ? :nuts:
