Realism Mod v5.0 UPDATED Saturday May 18 | Rocky
:GS: ArmyOfOne just dropped me an e-mail about the latest incarnation of the Gunslinger's popular Realism mod. How popular is the GRM? According to some research by Pie, the previous version managed to practically... "... completely take over the Ghost Recon online gaming community" .. and judging by the comprehensive Readme and 300+ hours that went into the new version, it's a safe bet that GRMv5 is also going to be hugely popular.

Serpent's Nest Friday May 10 | Rocky
Koichiro let us loose on his new mission "Serpent's Nest", and we are glad he did - this mission rocks! Koichiro has spent over 9 weeks on this engrossing mission, which features new sounds, voices and music, and the final version should have new uniforms.
What really impressed us though was the total mission experience this mod offers - it's like taking part in a Tom Clancy movie. There are twists and turns, developing objectives and clever use of sounds to bind it all together. Sorry Red Storm - but I enjoyed this more than the original Mission Five : Gold Mountain, the map on which this mod is based! As soon as Koichiro has finished fine tuning Serpent's Nest, it will appear in our Downloads, don't miss it.

Pre-Orders for Raven-Shield Wednesday May 01 | XianSaint
Although there hasn’t been an abundance of Raven-Shield information released (yet), there are a few things worth monitoring. Amazon is taking pre-orders for the Rainbow Six: Raven Shield Prima Strategy guide. (Estimated release date: OCT 02). Look for it in the www.ghostrecon.net Amazon store soon and help support the site. If all goes well, expect to see Amazon offering pre-orders of the game in the near future. EB Games offers the same guide and their site shows a nice shot of the cover. In the mean time, Chips & Bits is taking pre-orders for the Raven Shield PC Game. (Estimated release date: NOV 02). This is only the beginning; so expect other PC vendors to start their “pre-order” advertisements soon. 
|
|
Official Polls Wednesday May 01 | XianSaint
The official Ghost Recon site has a new poll listed comparing the game play of Ghost Recon and Desert Siege. I must say that I was a little surprised by the results. Desert Siege scores are pretty low, and that is kind of a shock when one recalls how the stores couldn’t keep it on the shelves when it was released. Maybe the Desert Siege folks are too busy playing and haven’t voted yet. And speaking of polls, RSE has a poll asking where “the Ghosts” should defend next. I’m not sure how old this poll is, but seeing how Desert Siege has been out for a few weeks, one has to wonder if RSE has something in store for us in the future. Check out the Ghost Recon poll here and the Redstorm poll here!
