I just finished Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter last night. Add this to the extremely short list of video games I've actually finished. It was a hell of a game and I'd play it all again. The last mission in the game was pretty awesome - a very violent shootout with heavy weapons in downtown Mexico City. It reminded me a lot of the shootout scene in the movie Heat (Pacino, De Niro).

This might be the best game I've ever played. A while back I blogged about how I hope Bungie in corporates some of GRAW's features like taking cover, aiming, etc into H3. However I realized that H3 is a first-person shooter and GRAW is a third-person shooter. I don't think a lot of the stuff would really cross over very well. At least H3 will have the Mongoose :)

You gamers out there are probably laughing at me, because GRAW is old. That's just how it is :) The sequel to this game is already out and I'll plan on buying it someday. But right now, I have to tackle Gears of War next. Something tells me I'll still be playing it by the time H3 is out.
