  1. This game oozes replay value. From the Xbox Live! to the improved interface, this game has legs.

    Newbies may be shocked at the strategy and planning this game requires, but they'll most likely enjoy the quick learning curve, thanks to Ghost's user-friendly interface. [Sept 2003, p.60]
  3. Online, however, Thunder deserves a salute for its wide selection of match types and well-designed multiplayer maps - the burned-out bases and beachside cabanas make for great playgrounds. [Sept 2003, p.120]

    The best FPS for grown-ups. An absolutely fantasic and multi-hour addictive game. If you have Xbox Live! you have to play this game. A must have until we get a true sequel to the original Ghost Recon for Xbox. Expand

    If you're a die hard GR fan like I was you'll see that the gameplay and sound effects on this one are not up to the standards of the old. Also the fact that all the weapons you spent hours unlocking in the first are now "gimmies" in this one. Expand
