    Emerging from the shadows

    The debut of the 3DS has seen a number of releases and ports tailored to show off 3D effects, with some perhaps coming up short in terms of depth and content, but Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars 3D aims to set itself apart from the field. There is pedigree behind the development: the project lead, Julian Gollop, is...

Huh, visually it looks kinda crappy compared to the other 3DS third-party games. Honestly, it looks like it belongs on the original DS.

ExploderReviews

Im not so sure. I can definitely tell that they got rid of the blockyness, its just that top down strategies tend to look like this.

IanMage

It looks similar to the GTA Chinatown Wars style

LEGEND_MARIOID

Its meant to be a strategy game I believe. Odd choice for a 3DS title - especially considering shooters like the Resident Evil series is looking to make its mark on the console.

Kriedler

I'll be getting it because it's made by the dudes that did X-com. Those guys know TBS games
I just pray for some kind of online or good support for this one so I don't beat it and leave it

DarkKirby

Don't mean to be mean, but this seems to obviously be for the original DS, ported to the 3DS.

Excellent game. Reminds me of a mix between Advance Wars with some RPG-style character buildings. (The 3D gives additional depth to the terrain and seperates makes the status messages and such float above the playfield ... not critical to play, but I like it)

I have this game and its the best game currently available on the 3DS. I love games like Jagged Edge an X-Com and this plays like a streamlined version of those games. The 3D helps to judge the lay of the land.

3D is not necessary but it looks so much better in 3D I rarely switch to 2D these games look great in 3D even if the gameplay does not need it.

iBeatz

it must be good to get a rating of 9/10

THENAMESNORM

This game is awesome, and with a HUGE amount of content. Online multiplayer would have been a nice touch, and maybe a game mode centered around the Zombie survival side-mission would also have been cool.

This game can be picked up for £15 now in the UK!

CARPYMW3

9/10 this game is spose to be really rubbish im not joking the guy at game said so. well thats what he said so i dont know apperently its got a online mode and its £15 now in the UK!!! well thats quite cheap dont you think
