NZGamer writes: "In case you missed all the hullabaloo surrounding Rainbow Six Vegas, the general consensus was that it was a fun game that (largely successfully) minimized the tactical nature of previous Rainbow Six games, and upped the action immensely. A lot of people enjoyed it – and then word came that a sequel would be released in a surprisingly short amount of time.
Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is a sequel that – as many suspected – doesn't change the formula much, if at all. Instead, it provides more of the same for those who didn't get their fill from the first title. This means more Vegas locales to muck around in, more walls to climb up/down, more terrorists to shoot, and more hostages to rescue. In a sense, it really should be called Rainbow Six Vegas 1.5 – but I guess that doesn't have the same ring to it."
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.
People that work at other sites should be banned from submitting stories. This is supposed to be N4G - News for Gamers - not A4G - Ads for Gamers. NZGamer is just spamming this site turning it into one big link for them and it is ridiculous. I have seen tons of stories from them in the past 24 hours. Ridiculous.
Did I miss something about New Zealand becoming the forefront of gaming reviews? This is like the 50th review in the last two days. Kiwi's must be getting to their heads.
