Once every 4 years 1up.com surprises me and posts something worthwhile

Pick your Player/Resolution and prepare soft padding on the floor below you so you dont bruise your jaw when it hits the floor, repeatedly.
They show a lot of single player. It starts at 1:47 into the vid and ends at 9:15. Totally worth the download, and it'll be totally worth the wait. I am sooooooooo glad they delayed this to bring it up to 360 standards.

Man, that is a large download. But if Mr. Skeptic likes it, it must be good.
?!?!
When it comes to Recon games, there is no skeptic in me. I will buy any Recon without even seeing a preview from a website or magazine. They have always given me months upon months of enjoyment, and make for the BEST games to play at Lan parties. Its right up there with Splinter Cell, DOA and Unreal/UT series as one of my favorites. I'm already drooling at the thought of part 4, lol. I'm an impatient SOB!
I like how at the end, he dives and tries to shoot the enemy
The chopper gameplay is amazing. The amount of geometry that fills in the city bg is just awesome. To think this is a first gen 360 game. Oh my, the future is bright indeed. I'm glad Splinter got delayed. Having these 2 games within a few weeks of one another would have been foolish.

anyways the GRAW stuff definitely looks impressive, nice scale, gameplay looks well tuned... its one I'll be buying for sure.

I love the whole "you fly a copter to new parts of the city" for changing "levels" - also check out the quality of the game, the graphics, cant wait to see the quality of games for the 360 in a year or two.

i want this game now!!!!that bitch in the video needs to be hit by a truck
any of these 1up videos i have seens, she is so biased and blind to anything done on the 360. anyways back to the game..... my eyes were buldging out of my head, every video i see gets better and better. i really like how they are trying to make the whole game more seamless with the helicopter rides. other then no visable gun in 1st person mode this version easily outdoes the E3 footage. cant wait!!

I mean that minigun should not only throw the guys backwards but pretty much shred them apart, so what they have in there now is exactly the opposite.
And each time they use the word whore I flinch, I'd never use that word in the presence of ladies. I know its gamer lingo but still..

Gotta love 10mbit cable modems!!!
But, I can only use that for speed tests. There aren't any servers that support speeds that fast (at least I haven't found one) not even XBox Live!
It'll be done in 6 minutes.

Looking great, but I'm pretty worried about the lack of ragdolls. You dont see bodies fly around and when the guy is in the blackhawk you get these awkward slow animations the exact animation for all the bodies.

Yeah, I know. When she called herself a graphics whore, I kind of just sat there. It was kind of wierd.

9:15 into the video, look at the guy running, and he dives, and kills that guy. Holy Shit. I want it.
Actually i think he IS killed by the other guy
(not that it matters )

Nice...whens this game due out again?
Release date 3-7-06. March 7 will be a good day!
I don't know if you guys have seen this pic, but if you haven't check it out. You know how in some games, it looks TOO good to be real? Things have TOO much texture, stuff like that? Check this out:
Now THAT is perfection. It almost seems like your screen in dirty and grungy, at leat in my opinion. Perfect.
