Review from me:
The game is really good due to a lot of things. The graphics for a start are impressive. The technology in the game is very good as well, such as being able to see what your team are doing, go into their cam view and also the command map using drones etc to spot enemies and give orders to your squad.
The game is challenging if you ask me, its not like run in and all guns blazing. You need to take cover and set your squad up to make sure no enemies are behind you or will sneak up and kill you.
The HUD is pretty cool looking as well. Quite a variety of weapons as well and you can customize them, front grips, scope, silencer etc. Single player levels are long, I haven't gotten that far yet, but I've noticed they are long levels on a lot of them.
Multiplayer is great. There is a lot of modes, such as team death match, death match, coop etc. Coop is fun, your team vs the cpu enemies. Good interface of the menus and the music is really good.
I think you should get it.

I've got it, but seldom play it. Not for any reason other than I discovered (quite late I admit!) FEAR and Football Manager 2006.
I got hooked on those, and poor old GRAW was shelved. I had good intentions of starting again, but Neverwinter 2 is on the horizon now!!!!

Get 512MB of video card RAM.Vegeta said:
It will then ALLOW you to use high textures.
I have it - Great game.
Not played MP yet but SP is good.
Better than Ghost Recon even.
Requires about the same lvl of tactics as Raven Shield but the movement of the char has been much improved - As is the AI. (Although they could still do with a little more)
If you are intl the likes of Hidden and Dangerous, Ghost Recon, Raven Shield etc - Get it.
If you are more UT2004/Quake4 etc - Then I wouldn't get it.
and you can tell it to load the textures into your ram rather than the gfx card i believe.
better then GR!?!! haha yeah i agree now, although many many GR fans would disagree. infact it was only a month ago i changed my mind to because i upgraded to a PC that would actually run it at a comfortable frame rate - 70/80 fps 
rathen than the 30 fps my barton was kicking out.
there is a distinct correlation between those who dislike the game and poor framerates. GRAW is just ahead of it's time, it's a pity though, because ppl will just not go back to it. but i know GRAW is responsible for a heck of a lot of upgrades lol
i'm so glad i upgraded and enjoy the game now, it means my trip to Sweden to beta test it last year was not wasted lol
you should definately get yo azz into multiplayer, that's where the real fun is, especially when you play with a nice friendly clan, and have some good banter to.

The price on that page says £6.99 but when I add the game to my basket it says £34.99. Any idea why? Do I need a promotion code?RichL said:
