Reviews for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - Recommended

Strengths: Improved coop, AI teammates and graphic, need thinking to approach mission

Weakness: jumping picture in coop, experience drop-out from coop

The coop experience is improved in terms of allowing 4 players coop and 1 friend joining the story mode. That is fun. Coop communication is a lot better than last one. At least I can communicate with teammates during heavy fire.

The AI of computer teammates is improved although they are still stupid sometimes. Graphic is definitely a lot better from last one which is very closed to COD4. Computer calculation is better so you won't be killed when hide behind wall.

Also, I like it because it's not "go-shoot-go-shoot" as COD4 but the approach of mission makes a different to the result. You have to think how to use the AI teammates. For the last one, I only played once in the story mode but this one I am indeed playing the second time currently.

Regarding the weakness, I experienced jumping picture/position during 4 players coop. That sucks. For example, I reload but next second I need reload again because it "jumps back". Also, player dropping off from game happens.

As summary, I recommend this game to my friends and we have 7 people now so we are about to try the other multiplayer modes. :) Good game that you should not miss.

Solid Game

Strengths: Good gameplay

Weakness: Controls, Not COD 4

This sequel is very similar to the 1st Vegas game. Nothing new, gameplay is very similar and graphics have not improved. Very fun game, but would definitely still recommend Call of Duty

Rainbow 6v2

Strengths: Good team-work skilled shooter game

Weakness: graphics

Comparing this to the first Rainbow Six-Vegas I would have to say it's quite an improvement. While the storyline to the first was o.k. the graphics were quite choppy and team member control was sometimes confusing. They have seemed to clean these defaults up this time around. Overall I would recommend this game if any of the past Rainbow Six's have interested you.

rainbow six vegas 2

Strengths: great graphics, addition of sprinting

Weakness: very tactical game play

I never really enjoyed any of the Rainbow Six games so my review may be bias. It really depends what kind of shooter games you prefer. I wanted a change from Call of Duty 4 and wanted a new online multiplayer experience. I think the game is very different from COD and I haven’t gotten use to it yet. The days of running and gunning are over. The game is very tactical and strategies need to be implemented in order to succeed in this game. The game does have great graphics and plenty multiplayer modes that should appeal to fans of this type shooter. I recommend this game if you are looking for a more tactical slightly slower paced shooting game.

As Good as the First with Some Added Perks

Strengths: Just as good as the last one, Good action, Best Squad Based FPS on the PS3

Weakness: Nothing that new, Still Can't Compete with COD4

This game is a must if you were really into the first Vegas game. They added a few new features and multiplayer is way better.

This is still no COD4 game, but if you're into squad based FPS...this one is just as good as the first one and has a little bit more.

Storyline is good so far and will sure to answer some questions left from the first game.

Nice Series!!!

Strengths: Better AI than the first RSLV! The AI don't cheat like the first one...FAIR!! Slick moves and quick response from the controller!

Weakness: Unrealistic AI movement, only respond to your movement. Most of the time! Too long of the load time for the first time! They actually copy almost the whole game into your hard drive!

During Terrorist Hunt, I hated it when you know for sure that area is CLEARED and there shouldn't any other way to come in to haunt you. Then, they will just 'show up' literally. We actually did a test on the same scene and make sure my partner move to certain point and I actually see the terrorist show up in front of me instead of coming from the windows or doors...CHEAT!!!
Overall, I like the co-op mode better than Ghost Recon Advanced War Fighter 2! Love their slick 'ninja' move when you are outside the windows and coordinate a 'breach and clear' action!
