Video Game Reviews of Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
Customer Review: Best FPS I've ever played
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely love this game. The action is exiting and feels real, and tactics are a must if you want to complete your missions. Definitively my all-time #1 FPS.Customer Review: Rainbow Six Vegas... You're favorite first person shooter, (you just don't know it yet)
Summary: 5 Stars
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas for the Xbox 360 is the 5th generation of Rainbow Six games. With over 30 realistic weapons, high tech explosives and cool gadgets, it's safe to say that you'll never go bored with this title.
I won't spoil you with details relating to the story line that goes along with the Campaign mode. All you need to know is that the campaign mode for this game is a lot of fun. The enemy AI is intelligent so it won't be a run and gun experience for you. They'll flank you, dodge bullets and throw a few flash bangs. You'll have to play smart and shoot accurate to move through the levels. Great enemy AI with cool weapons, rappelling, night vision, snake cams and well laid out levels, the Campaign mode really is a treat to play.
Now most of you however will purchase Rainbow Six Vegas for its online capabilities. This is what I want to focus this review on. You first build your character, changing body build, facial features and camo to your liking. Choose your primary weapon, pistol and 2 of your favorite Gadgets/explosives and your ready to play. You can search for a quick match, a custom match or create your own. When you create your own match you have the ability to lock weapons, change match time, change the amount of respawns and more. You can have up to 14 players per session although there is an option to have 16 with the "dedicated server" option on. This reduces any lag issues, however the person who is hosting the match cannot play.
Once you get to playing you can unlock new weapons and camo every-time you rank up. There are ten enlisted ranks and seven officer ranks that you have to go through until you reach "Elite" which is the grand daddy of all ranks. Currently there are 10 ways to enjoy online play... Survival, Team Survival, Sharpshooter, Team Sharpshooter, Retrieval, Co-op Terrorist Hunt, Attack & Defend, Co-op Campaign, Assassination, and Conquest.
Every weapon and explosion sounds really cool and the music is very well produced. Graphics are amazing but not as good as Gears of War or the highly anticipated Halo 3. Don't let this detour you away from this game though. The graphics are more than adequate and it looks as it should on the powerful Xbox 360.
I highly recommend this game. It's a challenging but fun first person shooter that will have you wondering why you didn't buy this title it a long time ago. For your enjoyment, I have included a complete weapons list for Rainbow Six Vegas... Enjoy!

Customer Review: Viva las Vegas!
Summary: 4 Stars
The newest in the Rainbow six franchises is the best one yet. A good FPS with awesome graphics and game play. The real world tactics are very accurately depicted. This game is true to its military route, fire team hand signals, MOUT room clearing, fast roping and repelling and tactical formations. You get an array of real world weapons. The setting this time is Las Vegas. This adds to the coolness factor. Sometimes it's hard to get an accurate bead on your enemy but it's a minor problem that is easy to shrug off as you're playing. One of the best shooters and if you're an online games this one is defiantly up your alley. This is one to buy for sure.Customer Review: great MP game

Summary: 5 Stars
Rainbow Six Vegas is the latest installment in the tom clancy franchise. I did not used to play these kind of games i usually just play sports games but i though i would give this one a try. I bought it and have had a lot of fun ever since. The graphics and gameplay are prime for the genre. The only thing i have trouble with is saving on my xbox 360 console.
