New Rainbow Six: Vegas Screens

Along with these delectable screenshots, Ubisoft let loose some new 'Vegas story details this morning. Apparently, international terrorist Irena Morales has amassed an army of up-to-no-good terrorists, and as Rainbow Six leader Logan Keller you and your team have a real-time-ish limit - like Advanced Warfighter - of one night to stop their dirty Las Vegas business.

This game still looks unbelievable

I am SOOO HAPPY that I have an Xbox 360; it is SOOO FUN to play!!! With games like this coming out for it, a lot of people will be having a LOT of fun in the future on their Xbox 360!!!

I have a 360 too, and it is good. But this is coming out for PS3 as well, you know? You've made it seem like this is a selling point for the Xbox 360. Don't reply with the standard "Yeah, but the PS3 costs $600" because I can't be bothered with fanboys. Posting something like that will only start an argument then flaming.

smells, do you really have to pounce on somebody happy about their 360. You think he's starting a flame argument. You simply just don't have to say anything like that cause it only puts him down and eggs him on to reply negatively.

He's already tried to provoke people on a different topic. For some reason he said that Call of Duty 3 will look MUCH better on the Xbox 360 than on the PS3, when in reality they will look identical. There has been official confirmation of this. His subject heading was "Xbox 360 version is superior" When he has nothing to base this on. Then he goes on to say that the PS3 version WILL be more expensive, again he has no evidence to base this upon other than the interview with Kaz Hirai and if he'd read that properly he'd see that this isn't necessarily the case.

I'm just a little fed up of coming onto this site and seeing fanboys argue. It's really annoying, after about the third topic they tend to recycle their arguments, change their wording a bit. The two worst people for this is The MART (who's always arguing for the Xbox 360) and Jin Kazama (who's arguing for PS3). It's just so frustrating. The majority of the time they're arguing about rumours!

The truth is is that this game will make both PS3 and Xbox360 owners happy about their purchase. The graphics look awesome, and I'm sure they'll be identical on each system, as COD 3 is going to be. However, I wonder if the Xbox 360 is going to have the upper hand with the face mapping feature that is being added because of the Xbox Live Vision Camera. Or will the PS3 get this feature because they have the Eyetoy? Only time will tell.

The ps2 version was awfull online b/c it only supported what, 6 or 8 players compared to xbox's 16. Maybe thats why he's happy with his 360. Besides ps3 will prob only handle 8 players (that would be funny) so the 360 is really the better choice.

[Smellslikepie]

I do agree that the 360 is a better choice. But you can't really make the assumption that the Xbox 360's Live service will be better than the PS3's (seemingly) free online service. It confuses me as to how they are going to run this... I never used the internet on my PS2 and I didn't play in live (at my house) on my Xbox, I only really started paying for it when I got my 360. I AM playing Devil's Advocate btw, i don't necessarily agree with what I'm saying, I'm just trying to find out peoples' opinions without getting into a little fanboy rant.

I think that the PS3's free online service could either be a BIG hit and do wonders for it or it could be a big flop. From what I've heard of the PS2's online service that was a big flop, maybe they've learnt from their mistakes? Maybe not. Maybe you'll have to have a seperate gamer tag per game? Or maybe you'll have a subscription fee for each game. I'm confused. I really don't see how the PS3 can beat the 360's Live functionality when they don't charge for it. I guess we'll have to wait and see. So, can someone tell me their experience of the play online capabilities of the PS2 and maybe refer me to some official statements about the PS3's Online service?

Thank you

smells, your forgetting that developers are going to be forced to charge PS3 online for multiplayer because of the insane costs to run a huge server.

Ohh yah and the free online idea for the 360 is called silver.

[Smellslikepie]

Yeah, I know about the free online feature for the 360, and I know it's called Silver. But you don't get to play multiplayer unless you have a Gold account. We also know that Sony have said that multiplayer support is included in their basic free service. But I've just read in an interview with CNN Phil Harrison claimed that the Playstation Network Platform will include "several new revenue streams that could help supplement the industry, including sanctioned auctions of in-game auctions (unsanctioned auctions are big business on eBay), subscription-based games (which have proven very profitable for PC game makers), in-game advertising and better merchandising of popular games (following the model established by the film industry)".

Note it says subscription based games. You're right Paul. Developers are going to charge to play online, or atleast that's what I read from it.

By the way, I was really just trying to compare the Gold Service to PNP because that's what I thought it resembled best, however, it seems that Sony is offering EXACTLY the same thing. Sort of.. Does this mean that you'll have to pay per game to play online? Can any one clarify this for me.

Also, if anyone wants to play on Live (360) add me my Gamertag is: smellslikepie1
