“If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.” Grin, the developer of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, took this adage to heart after the original GRAW’s abysmally poor squad AI and mediocre missions failed to woo PC gamers....

I had played Delta Force for years and never even bothered with any games from the Tom Clancy era. The reason I had not bothered is a friend had referred to Rainbow Six as rubbish and that was that. No playing Tom Clancy games. But what I found after...

I was really excited about getting my hands on GRAW 2 for the PC, since I’ve grown weary of shooters that are too easy and require no tact. GRAW 1 was pleasantly challenging at times, and really tough at others (which wasn’t such a bad...

This first-person shooter is very playable, features superb graphics and will keep you engrossed for hours. Creating a first-person, team-based shooter must be a tricky task. Not only do you need a plot line that doesnt involve the shouted line...

A certain type of gamer is attracted to the Tom Clancy brand. The very name instills a sense of gritty realism blended with a wealth of technical knowledge as far as military gear goes. Weve always liked the blend of realism and fun that games under...
