I'm sure. It's dependent on what hardware you have though. That's one reason why I got the xbox version (not to mention I wanted to play earlier).

Did they say when PC version get the new downloadable map yet??

No word on downloadable content for the pc yet.
 
Beat the Xbox version a few weeks ago, very cool game. The ending was ok, but the overall gameplay was pretty fun.

I have got the XBOX version had it since christmas, not much time to play it and I haven't got a clue of what I am supposed to be doing in each mission. I have to search the internet to find out. The controls are terrible.

Ever read the instruction manual?
 
Looks real nice, but I have no interest in sneaking around, played to the 3rd level and quit. I need more killing or at least a better story line

Ahh yes, your typical blow everything away that moves FPS have GREAT storylines. I mean after all, one Marine can do the job that millions in armies can't
 
It does have some replay value if you're into that kind of thing. Beat it on hard mode also, then try beating it without KO-ing anyone but the necessary. You only KO them if they have door codes or its a mission parameter. Maybe it's because it's in front of a PC that doesn't make it fun, but me and my cousin try out all sorts of funky stuff on the XBox version. We've both beat it at least 10 times each but we still play it every weekend.
 
It's OK, nothing to write home about. I guess I'm not a big fan of those "Use Stealth to eliminate 55,679 guards with only 2 magazines!"

 
Believe it or not Clancy is still consulted on games with his name on it. He Oked the story line for SC and such. As far as RvS goes, it is still based on a book named R6 and the characters haven't really changed from RS to RvS. What did change is now there are slo-mo death animation (it's nothing but a blur as you are playing,) "ragdoll" phsyics with dead bent over backwards with their head between their feet and the crotch pointing skyward (not realistic if ya ask me,) the bobbing up and down as you walk (makes me nauseous) and worst of all a first person weapons view. Some people like the FPWV, but that is one of the things I liked about the R6/RS series. It was not there. Yes, I know it is an option that can be turned off and on, but having it makes it just like all other UT/CS/HL clones. If you play MP and cannot host for some reason you will be forced to see it by others as most servers have force WV enabled. I am not the only old school R6/RS player who feels like this. I don't think Clancy had much to do with that part of RvS. That was all Ubi IMO.
