One of the best announcements at E3. Back to old-school mechanics. Raw gunplay and proper teamwork. THANK GOD!

Lets hope it doesn't get downgraded somehow -__-'

CaptainFaisal3602d ago

Will this be a full price game? My friends tell me that it wont. In my opinion this was my favorite announcement at e3 ! love Tom Clancy and love games with cops vs robbers. just hopping for another gameplay demo and an open beta this fall or holiday . Most importantly i enjoyed the team work part my friends and i are excited !

Gazondaily3602d ago

Yeah it will be a proper full priced game.

Yeah the announcement took me by surprise. As soon as I saw the gameplay I knew it was Rainbow 6. Its finally going back to what made it great. That destruction is just epic.

SuperDan-Dare3602d ago

I am truly looking forward to this, too. While most shooters allow for tactics, it seems to apply more focus & reward to those who take a moment to plan their attack / defense.

Npugz73602d ago

The game has a full story campaign and the multiplayer that was shown! So yes it will be full price.

DARK WITNESS3602d ago

ya, agree..

We need more shooters that require a thinking man behind the trigger, We need more games with real next-gen powered AI to create challenging situations.

I am sure if you asked someone who is not a gamer to look at a few articles around the net and tell us what next gen gaming is about, they would probably say it's about frame rate and resolution.

It's shame really, I really want next gen to be about so much more then just graphical upgrade.

Anyway, with games like Rainbow 6, maybe we will start to see shooters step up their game... hopefully

otherZinc3602d ago

Ohh Yes!!! Agreed!

Please make this game co-op like Terrorist Hunt!

For me this was ine of the games that stole the show for me. Im a big rainbow six fan and this got me so hype with the 5 man squad capturing the hostage and rescuing them. Can't wait to hear more about this one. Getting it for pc when it releases

iDadio3602d ago

This goes alongside Bloodborne as my favourite parts of e3 this year. Loved the old ones and this is looks like its keeping to its roots but with some amazing looking destruction. Tango down.

Software_Lover3602d ago (Edited 3602d ago )

Hasn't it always been? I loved the Ghost recons of the original xbox time. Those were some great games to play. Ubisoft really had great games during that era of consoles. The Splinter Cell games were just genius. That was a time when I knew nothing about E3. Internet forums weren't running a muck. Blogs didn't try to dissect every little negative thing they could find. Devs made games and we played them. No resolution controversy (except with GTA ps2 vs xbox). Nothing. No overhype. Nothing.

I was still innocent then, even though I was an adult. Wish gaming could go back to those times.

edit: Now, Halo 2 was hyped. I think that was the first "hyped" experience for myself. The original Halo just made a name for itself on its own merit.

Bathyj3602d ago

Internet ruined gaming for me in a way. I used to buy magazines every month Dammit.

Software_Lover3602d ago

Hell yeah. The official mags with the game disc demos. I bought so many games because of those demos. I played so much kessen on ps2 and JRPG's galore.

SuperDan-Dare3602d ago

I swear, you two guys - I'm exactly the same. I knew nothing about E3 and got all my information from magazines like 'PC Gamer' or (speaking as a 30 something now) from the playground.

Now, you are bombarded by so much information and every weakness is scrutinised. Even on games you thought were otherwise fine. In some ways that's good but does take some of the magic away.

Rainbowcookie3602d ago

I also feel that the internet ruined the gaming mag feeling etc. Much cheaper and guess gamers are spoiled nowadays. I do fear that always online and day one dlc will destroy the gaming in me. Couch co-op used to be the bees knees ...

King_of_Nothing3602d ago

I used to look forward to tearing through my monthly EGM magazine and checking out all the games on the horizon. I miss that!

Bathyj3602d ago

Even though I've been gaming for over 30 years grew up on Atari, Game&Watch and these places we used to call arcades, in 1995 I was happy with my SNES and hadnt even heard that a new machine called Playstation was coming out.

I had to find out by accident, walking through KMart on the day that just happened to be the first day of my holidays and I was cashed up with holiday pay.

Seems so strange now in this information age that I knew nothing about it until I saw it with my own eyes. The closest thing I had seen to 3D graphics was Mode 7 on Mariokart. One look at Wipeout and I bought that AU$700 console on the spot along with Destruction Derby and Battle Arena Toshinden but I think I spent just as much time playing with the TRex demo.

Gazondaily3602d ago

Yeah I remember buying the PS ONE on impulse. I didn't know a thing about it and saw it at Dubai airport and looked at the pictures of games at the back of the box. I remember looking at the Tomb Raider and Tekken pics and thinking wow I need this and bought it there and then.

Then when I went to my cousin's house they had the Nintendo 64 which I didn't hear about before either. My jaw hit the floor when I saw Super Mario 64.

These days, we know the intricacies of everything before the game is even released and in the future we probably will have all biometric data for game developers and the length of the hairs on their head.

I hope theres a good single player campaign and good squad commands. I love shooters with squad commands.

Bring back Brothers in Arms.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues
