Guardian Take on Future Soldier

Posted by Rocky on Saturday, January 28 2012

The Guardian have published quite a detailed review based on the Ghost Recon future Soldier demo they got to play with last week.

But the missions already seem to have that quiet, gripping appeal, and the prospect of playing with three friends, approaching an enemy blockade from numerous different directions is as appealing as it always was.

Future Soldier DRM

Posted by Rocky on Tuesday, January 17 2012

Ghost Recon Future Soldier on the PC may track hardware changes to home computers and refuse to run on systems with more than 3 upgrades if Anno 2070 is typical of Ubisofts DRM strategy for 2012.

Guru 3D posted this week that they are unlikey to review any Ubisoft PC games this year if the DRM anti-theft protection on Ubisoft games use the same anti-piracy measures as Anno 2070.

The new protection system tracks PC hardware upgrades, classifying more than 3 upgrades as suspicious activity, and locking the game.

Do you think this is a reasonable protection measure? Let us know now!

CIA Mystery

Posted by Rocky on Tuesday, December 13 2011

A mysterious package arrived by mail today at Ghost Recon.net Towers. Sender unknown, in an unmarked brown envelope. Inside were 3 documents and 4 photographs, like something out of a James Bond movie, except it all looked a little too real.

We've scanned in both sides of all three documents and all 4 photographs, you can view them in our forums here, or download the hi-res versions here. The redacted text has also been scanned in, just incase anyone is able to reveal the hidden text.

Revealing redacted text from secret documents is not impossible, as US military commanders found to their cost last year when a classified PDF file had its redacted text easily exposed using nothing more than microsoft word.

Other than that, and the other documents and photos available on mystery site WarmongersInc, we can't explain these mysterious documents, can you...

Ubisoft "don't believe" GRFS Cancelled Update

Posted by Rocky on Tuesday, November 29 2011

In the middle of a PC gaming community meltdown over the PC Gamer interview with Ubisoft that states Future Soldier will be a console only release, two tiny glimmers of hope...

Firstly, Ubisoft's UK Forum Manager has this to say yesterday

"Please be aware no official announcements have been made regarding the PC version.

Secondly, Ubisoft's Antoine Emond has reportedly tweeted

"Don't believe all rumours you can read on the Internet. Official information is always better. #GRFS "

The confusion lies with sites like Eurogamer saying that Ubisoft told them last Thursday while discussing Ghost Recon Future Soldier that

Ghost Recon Online is the PC equivalent

Has something simply been lost in translation, and if so, why haven't Ubisoft clarified interviews with PC Gamer and Eurogamer to make it crystal clear whether Ghost Recon Future Soldier is coming to the PC or not?

At this moment in time, PC Gamer's Ubisoft interview remains intact and un-edited, stating that Future Soldier is a Console release only. PC Gamer have declined to comment further.

Shadow Wars for iOS

Posted by Rocky on Saturday, October 29 2011

How would the well recieved 3DS launch title Ghost Recon Shadow Wars have fared if it was 2D, and didn't have a split screen?

We're about to find out as Ubisoft is about to bring it to an iOS device near you, very very soon. We loved Shadow Wars on the 3DS, as you can tell from our Ghost Recon Shadow Wars Strategy Guide, and while some of its charm will no doubt be lost on a 2D device, the rock solid and engaging gameplay will be just as good.

Watch out for it in the iTunes Store soon!
