New Tom Clancy Games

Hey does anyone know if the new Tom Clancy are goign to be any different, than the ones in the past?? I've gotten all of his games, they are fun in all, but is the plot going to change a little in upcoming Black Thorn and Ghost Recon?

As far as I know, Black Thorn will be running on an updated(yet still old) Rogue Spear engine and will be basically like previous games in the series. Ghost Recon, running on a brand new, kick-ass engine with improvements in every category, LOOKS to be just like the rest, except based more on outside, open areas that can really show off the engine(and just how important snipers are!). Ghost Recon will be a welcome change graphics wise, I can't wait to add both games to my collection.

The others work fine in Win2k, you just need to get a couple patches .

well as far as I recall, I tried to get covert ops to run on win2k (when it was first released) and red storm said it will not run on win2k nor do we support it. But that was like 2 years ago and lost interest because of it.
Now rainbow six was one cool game. ghost recon looks good.
Good luck

I'm pretty sure it will have new ai hopefully. Because, in rogue spear, and the add-ons, sometimes you would shoot right next to them, and they wouldnt flinch, and sometimes they werent even looking at you, when you get shot. But I think ghost recon, will have drastic improvements, but what about black thorn?? Does anyone know any information abotu stronghold, or allied assualt, because those are alos on my list.....does anyone know of any ne sim city games?? I know many people think they suck, and are boring, but I love urban planning alot for some reason....dont ask me why....

oh i found it, if you install a patch for urban ops you can play on W2k machines. Stronghold is a team survival game in which the gold team must stop any member of the blue team from entering their base for three seconds or more. Allied Assualt will be like assualt for Unreal Tourny, Your team storms an area trying to complete objectives. Sim City Games? Nope Try Sim City 3000 Unlimited(thats all i can say about sim games).
