GRAW content

Scheduled to be available via the Xbox LIVE! Marketplace at the end of June, this quality premium content will enrich and extend the original game by allowing players to continue the coop campaign through Nicaragua with four all new missions and extend their Live experience with 12 more playable maps.

# Continuation of Co-op Campaign with 4 All New Missions in Chapter 2:

* Coffee Plantation (Day) - This takes place on a coffee plantation embedded deep in Nicaragua. The map is littered with good cover options that appear in the form of a centrally located plantation house, coffee processing equipment, growing coffee plants, and stacked bags of coffee beans ready for transport. The Ghosts' overall goal of this mission is to eliminate the arms dealer and shut down his operations.

* Shipping Port (Evening) - The next mission takes place at a shipping port and the Ghosts' objective is to stop the enemy from smuggling weapons into the country. The player will interact with rebel troops through warehouses, decks of ships, and on massive shipping cranes. This night mission provides an eerie backdrop for Ghosts to move in take out the weapon shipments and ensure that the illegal smuggling of arms will stop.

* River Depot (Dawn) - This map puts the Ghosts in a jungle area that the Rebel forces have infiltrated and are using for storing and shipping out illegal weapons. The goal of the Ghosts is to secure the warehouse facility that holds crucial information concerning the placement and shipment of weapons. As the player weaves through the jungle and eliminates the patrols of enemies, they must also destroy all the weapon shipments and keep the Rebels from extracting from the area. Massive trees, loads of weapon shipments, and enemy transports are unique characteristics of this mission.

* Jungle Mine (Day) - The last mission in this co-op campaign chapter takes place in a mine that is vital to the Rebel force's regime and the Ghosts are tasked with securing the area, destroying the weapons, and eliminating the Rebel leader. The central location on this map is the mine itself and it provides a place for multi-tiered gameplay surrounded by good cover. This mission provides a new gameplay experience for Ghost Recon fans and it will surely be one of the more memorable missions in GR history.

* Fishing Village (Dusk)

* Wharf (Late day)

* Old Town (Morning)

* Nowhere (Evening)

* River Depot (Day)

Stringer: Xbox 360 is an 'Obsession'

In a lively interview with the Wall Street Journal, Sony CEO Sir Howard Stringer compliments Bill Gates' salesmanship and unintentionally reveals his preoccupation with the Xbox 360.

The WSJ conducted the interview in front of an audience at the publication's D: All Things Digital conference last week, where the Sony boss inadvertently revealed his own fixation with the videogames market.

When talking up the box office sales of Sony's Da Vinci Code movie, Stringer said, "It also beat Xbox 3 in Europe in its second weekend," at which point WSJ tech columnist Walt Mossberg corrected, "You mean X-Men 3." Laughing, Stringer retorted, "There's an obsession!"

When the interview's topic switched to videogames and Xbox, Stringer said, "God I walked into that, didn't I ... Look, the skill of Bill Gates is he's so brilliant at his detail that when he slips in the salesmanship, most of us think: oh my God, he must be right. ... He talked on the one hand, and I loved it, he talked about [Windows] Vista [being] delayed as if the delay was normal, and then he started mocking me for delaying PS3 [PlayStation 3]."

Mossberg then commented on the base model PS3's $500 price tag, at which point Stringer implied that the console will be much more than a games machine. "... It's got more bells and whistles than a 747. ... That Cell processor is extraordinarily powerful and you have nine hours of high definition on the Blu-ray disks alone...The reason it's expensive [is that] instead of concentrating on just the games player, which would have been done in the past, PlayStation 3 is designed to go somewhere else, where it's the center of the living room."

He added, "It's part of the new digital strategy to try and create a new software mentality in Tokyo because it's quite clear that we've been an analog company migrating to digital with some difficulty."

Stringer also said that since his tenure began at Sony, he has brought more focus to a company that had spread itself too thin.

"Sony is a target for everybody. We have more competitors than you've had hot dinners. ... The truth is, one of the things I did ... was eliminate some of those SKU's because it's exhausting trying to win on every front. Every engineer loves his own product, so if you have an electronic toothbrush with a camera, we would give the same amount of marketing to that as everything else. After awhile the company sinks, exhausted, to its knees. Well, we've changed that."

More MS Execs Bash PS3, Truck Engine In a Truck - Thompson

Spong has an interview with Microsoft executive Neil Thompson, instead of posing questions to him about the 360, they asked him masses of PS3 stuff and consequently he trashed 'em big style. He points out that Sony brought to us the Betamax, Minidisc and UMD all of which have not been incredibly successful. He says Sony are now offering a truck engine in a truck because it's 40 percent bigger than originally planned and it's heavier than the Xbox. So the PS3 will no longer have a truck engine in a Ferrari body...

quote:

Q: Sony would argue that the PS3, because of its power, would have a longer life-cycle than any previous console. Would you agree with that?

NT: Not really. Sony is not a software company, and I donʼt think it is able in terms of operating systems, and I donʼt think it has the elegance in its software design that we do, hence they need to put a lot more processing in their box just to get to the point that weʼre at. The analogy I use for that is that last year, I looked at their product and thought, “Well, this is a truck engine in a Ferrari,” because they were doing a lot of sexy stuff on the box. What has become apparent is that they are now offering a truck engine in a truck – the size of it is 40 per cent bigger than they said it was going to be, and itʼs heavier than the original Xbox.

The thing that we learned with the first generation of Xbox is that when you put all of this extra technology in the box on day one, consumers donʼt necessarily value all of that on day one. Thatʼs why we built the Xbox 360 in a way in which we can scale up to any new technology that consumers want. The thing that is fundamentally going to change this business isnʼt going to be the hardware, itʼs going to be what the software does for them. It takes quite a few iterations of games to get to the true power that these systems have. By the time we get to that point, weʼll have a scaleable business where weʼre offering people whatever choices they want in whatever ways they want.
