Thinking about getting ghost recon

[tactical 0]

I love OFP and won't think for a minute that there's a better combat fps out there. But I'm thinking about getting Ghost Recon. If you have it already, is it worth it? ARe the mods for it any good?

I'll sell you mine, it was used once, I still have the box and all.

Actually, when OFP Game of the Year comes out, I'll trade my GR, the Sims, and a few other oldish games to this computer store that buys used games and resells them. And with the money I get, I'll buy GOTY OFP.

Really?

Try the demo, read some reviews, go to a video store and rent the game for a day.

And when you like it, BUY IT!

I would recomend it. I really like GR. Remember it is different from OFP. OFP is a great simulator of what it is like to be part of a combined arms force in a wide open battle. GR is about a small group of special forces doing clansdine operations. If you are a big OFP player it will take sometime to understand how to control you AI buddies within GR, but once you have it done the game is a lot of fun.

Sorry about that Major Fubar.  I did check search and found some posts that discussed GR along with other topics.  I was hoping to hear from the OFP crowd who also owned GR to get their opinion of it in one place.    But, I guess that's why you're the Major and I'm just newbie:)

Funny to see how people always seem to get upset so quick when someone posts something that has been discussed weeks/months ago...

Neither did I. Imagine the piracy that would trigger.

I used to rent computer games back in 1996 to 1998. That was when I didn't have much money money because I was going to school and renting PC games was dirt cheap, something like $5 per week. I remeber renting games like Tomb Raider, C&C, StarCraft, and a bunch others that I don't remember now. And if I found a game that I liked alot, I would go ahead and buy it, seeing that a limited demo might not be enough to get a feel for the game, renting it was a better idea. I don't know if the store still rents PC games, or if it's against the law now, but it was fun playing a new game for a week every week back then.

Try demo first.

GR is okay IMO. I thought the demo was kinda short and cheap. Get the demo first. Than ask around and read reviews. Then think about getting it.

Hope that helps.

Um please tell me you are kidding?

I dunno about your country but here in Belgium you can go to some computer stores and they'll let you use a game for as long as you want. Of course you have to pay for it, one day costs about 3,5 euros i think, that's a bit less than 3,5 $

You can even get some games in our libraries (those games suck, they only give non violent games and stuff like that).

Of course a lot of ppl to bad things, this way they get the game for only 3,5 euros

I always try a game before i buy it, i don't buy a lot of pc games, but when i buy a game for my Ps2, i always go to one of those shops and play it for a while.

In some shops you can rent a Xbox,GC or a ps2 too, but i haven't seen a lot of those shops yet...
