Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon (PC) $19.99 @ Future Shop

[Bing Fung]

In case you wanted to know. I absolutely loved this game on the XBox, but the PC's graphics really kills da box's. Plus the PC version supports Widescreen as well so I picked it up for the new Widescreen Dell.

It is just the 15 mission first edition that does not include the Dessert Siege and Island Thunder expansion packs, but what do you expect for $19.99?

If you want the entire set, it is released now as a Gold edition that has all the mission packs for $59 bucks. Actually I think it may have been $56 bucks at Wal-Mart.

It would be great if it was instock. :x

Is SplinterCell worth a purchase, or is the Xbox version better?

Trev... East side Wal-mart has it in stock..heheh :wedgie: :smackbutt:

Here is an actual picture of Ghost recon on the widescreen i8500.



What's weird is the HUD display items are stretched looking, bu the atctual game arena and characters are in correct aspect. :huh:

I like this game so much I probably should have bought the Gold pack, however the expansion packs are around $14 at Wal-Mart as well, so If I get tired of it, I'll add the expannsion packs.

Cam and I have already finished the 15 mission Xbox Live game in recruit and vetran mode. It was a lot of Fun. We picked up the PC version for online play and higher resolutions.

Here is splinter cell on the widescreen dell



It doesn't support widescreen, so it's stretched to fit. It has some very cool lighting effects in the PC version.

Splinter Cell for the Xbox is pretty good, but I like the PC version more for the higher resolutions.


Here is a capture from my Radeon 9700 PC


be sure to click actual size if IE is set to autosize

Click on the image to see the full resolution 1600x1200 in game capture. The rayleigh tracing (lighting effects) is simply stunning in the PC version.

Trev Future Shop still has the $19.99 basic Ghost Recon, I noticed today they also have the $59 Gold Editio.

You may also want to try the new Raven Sheild by Tom Clancy and Ubisoft. It's basically the same premise.
