Summary

Part of the Group for Specialized Tactics, a Special Mission Unit under the direct command of the Joint Special Operations Command, the elite of the modern US Special Forces is better known by their battlefield legend. They are the untraceable soldiers called the Ghosts. Only the best of the best, soldiers with a unique mix of skills on and off the battlefield, ever get to wear the coveted Ghost insignia. In the near future, four of these elite soldiers serve as the tip of the spear in a hidden war raging across the globe. But even as Ghost Lead, Pepper, 30K, and Kozak accomplish their objectives, they discover the threat they face is greater than they ever imagined — one that could alter the international balance of power forever.

Providing yet another new direction in the Ghost Recon series of military games, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier promises to go beyond the core Ghost Recon franchise and deliver a fresh gameplay experience. The game features cutting-edge technology, prototype high-tech weaponry, and state-of-the-art single-player and multiplayer modes.

    Lollipop Chainsaw! At least they’ve waited for E3 to pass before releasing, this year. Unlike Shadows of the Damned last year, which was completely overshadowed.

      Lollipop Chainsaw is probably the only game I’m interested in this month as well :P

    Amazing Spider-Man has me interested purely becasue it’s a Spider-Man game and a movie tie-in that doesn’t hideously shit. However, Spec Ops is my game for June. It just looks too awesome.

  • NeoN

    The only one I’m looking forward to is The Amazing Spider-Man. Haven’t jammed a Spidey game in forever.

    I’m not in the habit of moaning, but how on big blue earth is The Witcher 2 on Xbox 360 one of the “low-lights”? 

    • http://egamer.co.za/ Azhar Amien

      I didn’t say it was, I was implying for some there’s a mix of highlights and lowlights :P For example, Diablo III is either a highlight or lowlight for many, Prototype 2 could be a low..Max Payne 3 was a lowlight for me personally.. So I was sort of saying it’s a mix of both :P

      You don’t have to look at it with such a beeeg magnifying glass wudolf :P
