These days the name Tom Clancy is just as synonymous with a certain type of video game as it is with a certain type of novel. And, by and large, in both cases you can be fairly sure of what you’re getting before you’ve read a single page or played a si...

For a so-so author of throwaway airport thrillers, Tom Clancy has done alright for himself. I don't mean to slight the man ? in my younger years I read and enjoyed at least one of his novels ? but consider this: from the variously successful big-screen...
Tight, responsive gameplay mechanics make for more excellent tactical action; co-op campaign and terrorist hunt are the real standout; much improved AI from the first Vegas; persistent levelling adds a nice sense of progression.
This is an expansion pack, plain and simple - the price is too high for what's on offer; don't come for the story because you certainly won't leave with one; much of the music has been lifted directly from the franchise's first instalment;...

If it weren’t for the one or two disappointments, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 would have achieved a perfect score. Even considering, Vegas 2 is still is one hell of a game. It is definitely the best shooter on the PS3 this year, if not the best shooter on t...

Excellent multiplayer, sprint function is great, updated experience and menu systems, traditional Rainbow Six game that weve come to love.
Pitiful story, so-so single player, no 4-player co-op, shoddy AI at times, graphics havent improved since the last game.
Vegas 2 would have worked better if it cut out the single player entirely and added more to he multiplayer.

The Game In 2006, the Xbox 360 and PC were graced with the latest installment of the Rainbow Six (R6) series, titled "Vegas." It wasnt until 2007 that PS3 owners got a taste of R6 Vegas, but eventually rave reviews stretched across the three gaming p...
As you can imagine, little new ground is being broken in R6 Vegas 2. But thats ok. The old ground is as solid as a stone. The average player will complete the single player campaign in roughly 8 to 10 hours. This may seem a bit on the short side, but...
