IGN has an article that states Ubisoft is releasing a special demo disc for those who pre-order Rainbow Six 3 for the Xbox. The demo disc will have four "new" maps (GR vets will recognize them from Desert Siege) that can be saved to your Xbox hard drive for use in the full retail version of Ghost Recon: Island Thunder.
Here are the details of the new Xbox levels (from IGN):The Ghost Recon: Island Thunder content includes four brand new maps:
Aurora - A barren nighttime desert scenario with campfires and a walled compound. You have to prevent friendly troops from being ambushed
Riverbed - Desert canyons are separated by a dried-up river and road with a useless bridge. You have to neutralize and enemy stronghold
Roadblock - An intersection with an old fortress and hospital is littered with debris. You help man the roadblock and fight off attacking rebels.
Tank - A narrow road with bridges that cross canyons a river. You help escort a supply convoy.
The new maps for both games were likely intended to be downloadable content at some point, but using the popularity of Ghost Recon: Island Thunder and Splinter Cell to leverage early sales of Rainbow Six 3 makes plenty of sense if you're Ubisoft. |
