We played the Co-op mode of this game online. The game mode in this video is called "Firefight". The objective is to kill all the enemies in the level before the time runs out. We were playing on the elite difficulty, so the threat indicator (thing at the bottom of the screen) did not show the directions of nearby enemies. We played this match with 3 extra lives each.

This game is pretty fun because the maps are open ended and you can go about completing pretty much any way you feel like. The game is not a run and gun type of shooter and requires strategy and patience. You can be killed by 1-3 shots from an enemy, so you need to be careful in how you go about engaging them.

We were doing a bit too much running and gunning this game, so the end result of the videos is not surprising....

Since the game is a team based game, headsets help a lot. We were using headsets over Skype to help coordinate our attacks and tell the other person when we spotted enemies.

The game Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon :Jungle Storm on the playstation 2 is basically this game plus extra content. It came out after the Xbox version and the game is more fine tuned and plays better than the xbox version in my opinion. However, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm on Playstation 2 does not have a LAN mode, meaning it cannot be played online with LAN tunneling programs like XLink Kai once the game's online servers are taken down. So, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Island Thunder for Xbox is worth owning for the fact that it can be played on Xlink Kai.

This multiplayer game of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Island Thunder was played online with a program called Xlink Kai (http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/ ) .It lets you play PS2, Xbox, and other console games online even once their online servers are taken down. This means that certain playstation 2 and xbox games can be played online forever. The catch is it only works with games with a LAN mode. This is because the program uses a game's LAN to trick the game into thinking players across the world are playing on its Local Area Network (LAN).

Here is a list of which Xbox games work online with Xlink Kai ( http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/?go=games )
