I have enjoyed this game a lot. It exceeded my expectations. I am purchasing Vegas 2 so I can finish the game. from Walmart.com It is even more fun with a friend. But the plot is good and is definately worth a purchase. Now at such a low price point because vegas 2 is out it is a must play if you are a shooter fan and haven't played it yet. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?Everything What's not so great:?Nothing "This is definitely the best sequel they could have done for the Rainbow games. The guns are amazing, the graphics are incredible, and it's definitely challenging. from Bestbuy.com What's great about it:?if your familiar with any rainbow six games its easy to pick up What's not so great:?hard to see on low def small TV "Game is amazing, it oozes strategy and patience. There are many challenges that lay before you and co-op is a blast. from Bestbuy.com A more action-oriented take on the classic Rainbow Six series, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is a decent game in its own right, but will be a disappointment to fans of the classic series. Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is a tactical first-person shooter that theoretically uses intelligent choices and SWAT-style maneuvers in its gameplay. from Amazon.com I just recently purchased the original Rainbow Six Vegas, 3 years after it's initial release, and seeing how most of the top reviews are from '06-'07, I figured it would be a nice change of pace to give this a review from today's point of view. The price Amazon is currently charging for this game is a knockout steal; much lower than MSRP. from Amazon.com But if I feel itchy, I like being able to go "weapons free" and fire at anything I want too. So there, that's my take on combat games. Playing Rainbow Six Vegas is pretty much the Anti Call of Duty and Anti Gears of War. You don't have endless streams of bullets flying from massive throngs of bad guys and you don't have chainsaws. from Amazon.com The game itself is a typical First Person shooter. However the tac ops that are available for your team add a sort of realism to it. Though I find I place my character in places that negate my teams ability to cover my six. from Amazon.com The checkpoint system is merciless, and moreover outdated. Specific points in the game simply required old-school "Try-it-again's" until the next portion was reached. And with seemingly no randomization mechanism for enemy placements, and multiple encounters prior to a checkpoint, this factor became fairly annoying. While these weren't entirely one method only situations, they were close enough to elicit more than a few curses from my couch. from Amazon.com The success of the Rainbow Six Vegas series on the PS3, X-Box 360, and PC has inevitably been transfered to the hand-held PSP. And overall, I'd say the transformation was a success. from Amazon.com

Description

Tom Clancy's Special-Ops simulator returns, this time, to the congested streets of Las Vegas. Rainbow Six: Vegas is a reinvention of the classic series with a greater focus on action and quick-thinking tactics combined with a robust, genre defining multiplayer mode. Unrelenting enemy AI challenges you to be quick and precise with your trigger finger, whether you're battling baddies in the dark, labyrinthine alleyways off the strip or taking down drug lords in an opulent penthouse suite at the top of Caesar’s Palace. Customize a robust arsenal of advanced weaponry using laser sights, silencers, and sniper scopes. As a member of the elite Rainbow Six, it’s your duty to make sure that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
