The amazing combat experience Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon and award-winning expansion pack, Desert Siege, come together to turn your Macintosh into a pivotal wartime control center. In Ghost Recon, Russia has fallen to ultra-nationalistic leaders driven to rebuild the Iron Curtain. In Desert Siege, 60-year conflict boils over as Ethiopia invades its smaller neighbor Eritrea, threatening the world's most vital shipping lanes in the Red Sea. Command this elite team of U.S. Army Green Berets through a series of demolitions, search and rescue missions and all-out fights for survival. Select, train and lead
Requirements
PPC, PowerPC G3 450MHz+, 128MB of RAM, ATI Rage 128 with 16 MB of VRAM (or better video card).
And this is still it - THE best tactical shooter on the market today! I started playing Ghost Recon when it had just been released in 2002, and I loved the game from the very beginning. Other shooters have come and gone since then, with better graphics, better physics engine, better this, better that... but none come close to the depth of gameplay Ghost Recon provides.
Sure, it has its visual and maybe technical shortcomings in today's gaming world, but GhR compensates you with its unrivaled immersive atmosphere, with an unparalleled sense of realism, and with an amount of replayability never again found in any other shooter game offering.
Playing GhR multiplayer Co-Op with some friends against enemy AI - whether in full-scale campaign missions or the simpler Firefight mode - is still a sheer joy, and so it comes as no surprise that you will find GhR online games running on GameRanger pretty much 24/7, even today.
To resort to the old cliche: If there was but ONE game I could take with me on a desolate island (that happens to house a powered Mac), this is it - Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon - the only REAL tactical shooter out there, the best of its kind!

PROBLEM FIXED "Theres only one problem with Ghost Recon for me: when i try to shoot at a person or enemy with the targeting riticle it seems to have only certain spots on the screen to point to and if im aiming at a person it will jump to the spot where it targets and it wont go smoothly with all the points on the screen. Example (T=Target and o=Riticle) oTo" - Problem fixed by turning down the sensitivity(i was at ten) and when i turned it down everything went smoothly.Sry for the complaint about that and i take everything back about the aiming problems.

Ghost Recon is a awesome game in GameRanger multiplayer(even though i always get killed :D ). I still think the playability of the game is great.Even the Single Player AI is challenging.Theres only one problem with Ghost Recon for me: when i try to shoot at a person or enemy with the targeting riticle it seems to have only certain spots on the screen to point to and if im aiming at a person it will jump to the spot where it targets and it wont go smoothly with all the points on the screen. Example (T=Target and o=Riticle) oTo This means you can shoot only in the place where the Riticle is and if the target happens to not be in the point where you can fire then you miss your target and usually your dead if that is the target is aiming at you.I have come to a solution to this problem which would be sidestepping until your Reticle gets centered on your target which when sidestepping becomes smooth and you can easily lock onto your target.Overall Ghost Recon is a really good game thats challenging and fun to play.

Okay, I give up, I'm playing the 1.0 version of this game and while it is like the most awesome game ever, how do you get the guys to switch weapons (in example from the rifler to pistol, or from rifle to explosives). Rather frustrating.

I love it all around. Although if you play with a lot of players over a network, it lags badly, but there's nothing we can do about that.

This game is extremely replayable. I played the demo at least 35 times before stopping. This game surprisingly runs fine on my 400 mhz Imac. The AI is extremely intelligent And macy times I found myself saying "How can they be so smart?" you should definitely get this game.

Good game for people who like to play games like Rainbow Six and such.

Play can get choppy at 1024x768x16 on an iBook 700 with mixed settings but there's usually enough FPS to play single. No good for multiplay.. strange choppy interaction between 3D and USB mouse render it unplayable, while trackpad just isin't accurate enough for multiplay.
