GR in 3D
Posted by Rocky on Friday, August 29 2003
For the past few weeks I have been preparing a new report, and I have to admit - I never had so much fun researching a report before. Here's why - I've been playing Ghost Recon in 3D using 3D glasses from eDimensional, and it is amazing!

Here's a clip from my review of this remarkable product.

"When you think about it, Ghost Recon was developed in three dimensions. The maps, the vehicles, the weapons, the characters, they were all modelled using 3D software - and yet that's not how we see it. Until you put on a pair of 3D glasses, you are not seeing the game in the manner it was developed - and once you have seen Ghost Recon in 3D, you'll realise what you have been missing out on."

Over the next few days there will be alot of updates, so don't miss out on what's coming up. We have a huge detailed review on a fantastic innovation - 3d glasses that really work, a report on the M2/M3 Bradley is about to be published, and a host of superb mods to release. There will be a Frostbite update, a fantastic brand new map, a collection of great and innovative new game types, and new missions. I hope to get all that out to you over the next 5 days!

Ghost Recon.com
Posted by Rocky on Wednesday, August 6 2003
Ubi Soft have relaunched Ghost Recon.com with a far more visually impressive site than before. I know they are working on changing a couple of minor things to improve it further. All in all, a nice move by Ubi Soft to show that they are still supporting Ghost Recon! Also remember that Ubi Soft have donated prizes to the current Alpha Squad Ghost Recon Stealth Tournament, so kudos to Ubi this week for their community spirit, and congrats on a spiffy new site design. Let's hope it is a signal for an increase in activity over there, who knows what news they have brewing....

Movies Page

I've added a new section to the Downloads section - Ghost Recon Movies. As well as archiving all the old Ghost Recon promotional movies, this section contains new fan made movies. To open this new section I put together a short promotional movie for Starship Troopers by Chems - visit the movies page here.
