Carlucci Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 from IGN... For its arrival on Xbox, gamers are getting full Xbox Live functionality, including online co-op play through the main campaign mode, voice commands for AI teammates in the single player game and totally revamped environments and missions. Fans flocked to Ghost Recon's online play when Xbox Live launched last year because that Tom Clancy game allowed gamers to utilize all of their online shooter techniques with teammates and work toward common objectives. At the very least, Rainbow Six 3 should improve on that concept with additional gameplay modes and upgraded graphics. The article also mentions downloadable content. It's a brand new storyline. No missions (from the PC or other versions) were reused. Reticle system is completely different to work better with the xbox controller. Gotta love Online Coop mode! Plus, it looks like we are going to get this game THIS YEAR! I for one really like the CQB (Close-Quarter Battle) in Ghost Recon. I wish there were more of it. I'm looking forward to a game that has more up close terrorist killin'. Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 I'm looking forward to it! I'm not a huge fan of house-to-house, room-clearing type stuff, so I'll be interested to see how much flexiblity gameplay styles is available. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bryan Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 Sounds fantastic! The smaller levels of GR:IT have really been fun to play - I think this bodes well for the urban settings in RS3. Can't wait! There are so many excellent titles coming out now that I am beginning to see my Friends List all over the map. Last night some were playing football, MotoGP, GR, GR:IT, NFL 2K3, and ESPN Hockey. The Live folder on LCVG will become an even more valuable scheduling tool in the very near future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark E Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 Oooooh, co-op play for the main campaign. That's awesome. Games should really look to adding this feature more, seriously. Co-op can add so so much to a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJames Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 Thanks, right before my birthday. Yes Co-op can really add to a game especially if the AI is good. I still play it on occasion on GR:IT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishepa Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 I can't wait for this game. I really liked the first Ghost Recon on xbox, but I thought the layout was just too large. I think I will like the smaller maps alot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Merrick Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 It seems like developers are taking the Live functionality further and further. This will be a great game to play the main campaign through with a friend or friends. Definitely looking forward to this one and Counterstrike!

Guest BurtReynolds Posted September 13, 2003 Report Share Posted September 13, 2003 I would DIE if they added some bonus levels from Rainbow Six. Some of the greatest moments in my entire life have been while playing Winter Chalet Co-op on Elite with 3 of my buddies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
