GRAW 2 is only a few weeks away from appearing on the PS3 - in demo form at least, according to the SCEE Community Manager recently.

Multiple Mods
Posted by Rocky on Monday, July 30 2007
Satoh has produced an awesome guide for all Ghosts out there trying to manage large numbers of GRAW mods at the same time. The technique uses a pretty cool mod enabler and the guide has plenty of detail and screenshots. If you have countless GRAW mods installed, use the guide to limit what's active at any one time and cut down your game's loading time by as much as half.

M99 Awareness
Posted by Rocky on Friday, July 27 2007
When TeamHot started a discussion on the M99 sniper rifle I don't think anybody thought it would run to over 100 posts of discussion and debate!

Do you think this weapon is overpowered and challenges game balance, or are players simply not using enough tactics to counter its effectiveness? Add the to discussion here.

Get on GRIN's Wall!

Some fans are already on GRIN's wall (dart board heh), and now the rest of us can get in on the act! GRIN would like to make a poster of photos from around the world of people collecting GRAW 2 from the store. It's a great idea and a chance for fans to say thanks to GRIN for all their work in improving GRAW and giving us a worthy addition to series.

GRAW 2 Tweak Guide Updated
Posted by Rocky on Monday, July 16 2007
Tweakguides have updated their GRAW 2 Tweak Guide for the full retail version. I don't know if they go into as much depth with all the games they feature or just the ones they like, but they really give GRAW 2 the treatment, and are obviously familiar with the game way beyond a few hours testing session.

The eight page guide by Koroush includes tips for Vista installations, and a nice selection of gameplay tips that will be essential reading for new GRAW 2 gamers.

There's also confirmation here that GRAW 2 does not require a disk check, something that has already been alluded to in our forums, nice one!

It's a great guide, bookmark it now.
