First Look: Tom Clancy?s Ghost Recon

Red Storm leaves Rainbow Six behind for a new fictional spec-ops squad that isn?t afraid to get dirty.

The team behind the ground-breaking squad-based shooter Tom Clancy?s Rainbow Six is locking and loading for an equally realistic portrayal of small-arms combat based on the Ghosts, another fictional spec-ops unit. When trouble reaches a boiling point between NATO and Russia, the Ghosts are called into action.

The game maps will focus on vast outdoor environments?16,000 meters square?rather than on the more confined indoor/outdoor levels of Rainbow Six and Rogue Spear. The terrain looked stunningly real in a demo, varying from rolling hills populated with trees, creeks, houses, and shell craters to a grimy, strife-torn cityscape. Soldiers and enemies boasted incredible detail and moved with great realism, including 200 death animations.

You?ll command six soldiers at once, giving orders on the fly with a real-time map?no more pre-mission planning?plus, you?ll be able to jump inside anyone, anytime. Of course, your weapons will be highly realistic, as will the 16 missions, which will include rescuing downed air men, evacuating the American embassy, and blowing up bridges. For fans of R6 and military shooters in general, Ghost Recon looks to be a must-have title.
