Episode 12 – GRAW2 Remakes vs Old School Ghost Recon

It’s an old Ghost Recon vs new GR remakes comparo.  We actually recorded this show about a month ago, so please forgive any outdated references.  You’ll no doubt notice the overall low-key, NPR-quiet tone of the show, which is indicative of how busy and tired we have been lately.  We’ll get our monster-truck rally commercial narrator voices on next time.

Enjoy.  Don’t listen while driving.

Panzer Tactics DS hands-on at Pocket Gamer

I’m really looking forward to this one. Here’s an excerpt:

“In terms of depth, Panzer Tactics should keep even the most demanding WWII buff content. There’s a diverse array of land, air and sea units, all of which are unique to each faction. Getting into the game is made easier thanks to some excellent hints and tips that appear in early missions, but from our very brief play test it’s abundantly clear that the level of tactical scope offered is considerable”

I can’t wait for this one. Here’s the SOURCE.

Panzer Tactics DS

After trying Advance Wars 2 for the Gameboy Advance (on my DS) and loving it, but wondering why such a great tactical game was stuck inside bad 70’s anime, I’m definitely looking forward to Panzer Tactics. Hopefully the execution will match the more serious look. Seriously though, I thought that at any point during Advance Wars 2 GBA, I might start seeing Chim-Chim or Spritle pop out of the back of my tanks.
