Ghost Recon Shadow Wars is very different from the traditional third-person shooter in home console Ghost Recon game releases. It still keeps to its tactical group side, however, and offers an engrossing experience on the Nintendo 3DS. The best things Ghost Recon Shadow Wars offers is a lengthy and solitary strategy experience, utilizing the added 3D perspective for some nice effects. While this isn’t a showcase Nintendo 3DS game for pushing unique features of the 3DS system besides 3D, it is probably among the most core-gamer offerings on the platform. Fans of turn-based strategy games should not miss out on Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Shadow Wars.

Wait till you guys see all the Pay To Win micro-transactions that are in this game!! Yes, everything from buying weapons (NOT just skins), to attachments, to skill unlocks, to "time savers", etc....and this is just naming a few. Check out the videos online for Breakpoint's Store!
I was so jacked for this game, but now it's a pass just like this year's COD.
I'm predicting that these greedy companies will soon be the death of video games as we know it.

Cyburn writes : "One of the launch games for the Nintendo 3DS, Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars from UbiSoft is a turn based strategy title with a similar feel to Advance Wars and Fire Emblem but easier to get into.
The story feels like a cliché of a Cold War plot brought into the modern era with the enemies being ultra-nationalist Russians who want to conquer East Europe and return it to a Soviet Union. Our heroes plus a Kazakh agent sidekick seem like a generic multi-racial team of GI Joe rip-offs, though the story while thin does keep a quick pace.
In terms of gameplay and setting: Shadow Wars is presented in a overhead, third person perspective and you move your units around like chess pieces or figurines – each having their own special abilities".
