One of the first reviews for the game. Here is what PlatformNation.com had to say, "The story, while short, is extremely fun, fast paced, and immersive. You're the leader of your squad and you're going through Las Vegas trying to stop evil terrorists from blowing up a bomb, all with a surprising twist towards the end that I(Steve519 from PlatformNation.com) am not going to spoil.
As with the previous Rainbow Six games, the online play is really where it's at. Vegas 2 offers many different game types and maps for you to choose from, along with many different options for you to choose for each mode. There are several different weapons to choose from, and in the game you're given the chance to customize your character from top to bottom. This was popular in the prequel, and is also going to be in this version. Once again we are offered face mapping, and again it does take a long time to get your colors and skin tones right. Unfortunately they still do not allow you to use much of the equipment for your head if you do the face mapping, and still it looks a little cheesy, but do not let that stop you because it's always fun to see your real face in the game.
Enough of the face mapping talk, let me(Steve519 from PlatformNation.com) get right into the review because that is why you are here. You want to find out if this game is truly all that."
There’s more to Ubisoft’s back catalogue than its Templar-bothering flagship franchise and we’re here to prove it. By grovelling for remasters, of course.
It’s that time of the month again folks. The time where gamers collectively gather all over the internet to criticize what free games they get this month. So, who plundered the other's fanboys for all their self-worth and gratification in life? Who was the victor in July? Let's take a look.
Neil writes "It's time for some new free games as the Xbox Games With Gold scheme prepares to deliver four new free titles for all Xbox One and Xbox 360 gamers to get their hands on. But whilst we've seen the quality of the scheme tail off somewhat over recent months, can the offerings for July 2016 bring a much needed summer boost?"
360 got the short straw this time but I guess there comes a point where all the free games for last gen will be 'old'
Really...you played Banner Saga 2? You have played Tumblestone? Oh thats right you haven't. And Vegas 2 is now trash? Just please stop ... you only look foolish at this point.
You're missing out on a fantastic game if you think The Banner Saga is trash....
Banner Saga 1 was a solid game so looking forward to 2 but that's about it for me this month
I actually joyed rainbow vegas 2. Its be a long time since I've played it but remembered a lot of fun with it when it came out.
@ Paytaa
Terrorist Hunt still a lot of fun even today. There are always people playing this game mode in RSV2, and to a lesser extent, people are also still playing RSV1.
July is weak rainbow six v2 is great game but now only few people is playing it. Well at least I got 1000 achievement
Trust me don't won't to hard for them.. plus rainbow six siege flop bad even with two free copy of 1&2 . People rather play cod black op 1
Yeah, Siege was a flop. Right ... It's not one the best online console shooters ever...
I'm a Rainbow Six fan, but I much prefer the Vegas series over Rainbow Six Siege. Siege was really fun for the first couple of months, but you wont see people playing it 8 years after launch like Rainbow Six Vegas 2. Siege just doesn't enough content to keep people interested enough over a long period of time.
going to try to get this tomorrow. Thats if gamestop has it tomorrow. They probably won't have it till wednesday:(
Great review
i hope it gets a bit more then a 8.5
vegas 1 got 9.2
i might rent this game.....if its really goood i'll buy it...
Rainbow six: vegas online sucked. Laggy and like one map was used. P2P usually sucks. I was playing resistance before the first vegas came out and it was shameful how bad and laggy the first rainbow six was.
I had a lot more fun playing singleplayer than i did with the MP,
I mean a 5 should be an ok game, not really good but not bad. Nowadays a 5 is the most horrific piece of shlt you could ever play. Dont mind me babbling, i just find it interesting.
Ps: It´s probably a good game, but in my oppinion i dont think the first deserved that score so i hope they have improved..
