    Default Do I buy?

    With RTCW out now, is it worth spending £40 (about $70) for Ghost Recon? or just go straight for RTCW??

    At this point I would just go with RTCW. It is a newer game and it seems to have more support behind it. In a few months Ghost Recon: Island Thunder will be released anyways. If you want a ghost recon game, wait for that one.

    Thumbs up

    First and foremost, check out my afro avatar.

    After you finish viewing it, (if you finish viewing it) I suggest you try the games. They are both first person shooters, but they are 2 completely different games. GR is a whole lot more....realistic I guess, and its multiplayer is a helluva lot of fun but it is slow paced. RTCW is a fast paced online shooter, also tons of fun. You really have to try them both.

    This prolly didn't help you all that much, but heh it's post 26!

    Papke's right. Very different games. But if you like both I would go for RTCW since Island Thunder is on it's way, and I would think that the original GR won't see too much action after that.

    While a lot of people abandoned GR intially, it seems that many are back to playing it at least semi-regularly (at least according to my FL)

    Sorry I exposed you guys to the grammatical nightmare that was my previous post. I was reading over it and I almost gave myself a heart attack. However, I have now fixed it. This is just to clear things up.

    And, after thinking about it, I agree with DukeBuckhorn about getting RTCW. He brought up Island Thunder which will most likely destroy GR's online players. I know I'll stop playing GR as soon as I get IT.

    Enjoy my post and my afro avatar.

    Perhaps.......

    I don't really know why I did all that. Partly because I want more posts to my name! Another part being that I'm bored outa my mind. Whatever the case, look at my afro avatar.

    $70 for any game is too much. Especially one that has been out for as long as GR.
