What Song Are You Listening To?
Posted by Rocky on Tuesday, March 21 2006

One of the longest running threads in our forums is What Song Are You Listening To? With over 100 pages of songs and over 12,000 views it's safe to say Ghost Recon fans like their music!

Now Ubisoft want to know which genre of music Ghost Recon (and Rainbow Six) fans like best, and they are running a poll to find out. Visit Ubisoft and let them know what sort of music you like by voting in the poll down on the right of the main page! Who knows, it could lead to one of your favourite tracks appearing in an upcoming title.

Ghost Gallery
Posted by Rocky on Tuesday, March 14 2006

We've added a new feature today, the Ghost Gallery. Colin has been collecting what must be the largest collection of Ghost Recon screenshots anywhere, and has collated them all into one huge collection. The gallery is currently split into 4 sections, one for each version of Ghost Recon. A link to the gallery will always be available on this news page on the right hand boxout, and you can check it out right now by clicking here to view Ghost Recon Screenshot Gallery.

Thanks to Colin for putting it all together, and also Dai San for his input at the start of the process!
