"A shooter worth buying..."
4 stars"

I have completed this game on realistic on single player and it was some what enjoyable, although after the first few missions I found myself doing the same things throughout the rest of the game. I did not find this game hard as some of the other people have said but it had its moments where you just could not get past a checkpoint, these moments often made me come back the next day to get past them as I simple couldn't be bothered after the first few retrys. The online experience is probably the best so far on the 360 compared to the other shooters. It has a good variety of maps, guns (which you can also customise) and is a pretty fast pace experience but it doesn't have the clan support like some of the previous RB6's. Less than a handfew of guns also don't seem right, eg some of the shotguns seem too accurate and the Ak47 has got a slow firing rate for some reason. Overall it's a game worth buying on the 360 especially for a good online experience.

"favourite coop game."
5 stars"

the best part is the system link multiplayer co-op up to 4 players with the all the singleplayer missions and the multiplayer missions. Dont judge this game on previous rainbow six or tom clancy titles. Rent then buy.

"Amazing and fantastically hard"
5 stars"

I have just rented rainbow six vegas on 360 and the visuals, sound, AI and the whole layout is amazing or just great. It is really hard at some parts which keeps you playing. 5/5.

"Keeps you coming back"
4 stars"

This game has one fault that it is very hard but it keeps you coming back to give it another go .I started this game mid dec and am proud to say i have just finished it today so it is value for money in hours played you start off in mexico city then it's off to vegas which they have changed all the names of the casino's you battle your way through casino's and down freemount st .Then it is off to hover dam you land on the bridge in front off the dam which in real life is only just under construction this is where i got stuck many a time but you will want to come back and back to get through .The trick is to use your two team mates to enter rooms first or in big rooms they can enter one door and you can use another door .

"Too difficult?"
4 stars"

I play plenty of games (though admittedly not that many shooters) but this is one of the most difficult games I have come across. Don't get me wrong, the small part of the game I have played through has been amazing (great visuals, sound, gameplay – the lot) but damn it's hard, and tedious to have to go back to the last checkpoint every time you get killed (which often only takes one shot). If you're into shooters this game might be fine for you but I wouldn't recommend it to casual gamers who won't put in the time to try over and over again to get to the next checkpoint.

BTW I've been playing on and off for 3 days and am still in the Mexico “training” level!!!

"nice"
5 stars"

Ive played all the tom clancy games for xbox and xbox 360 to date (except RB6 4 lock down wich i refused to buy because it was aweful) and ubisoft has again raised the bar. It plays very similair to the FIRST two games on xbox (rainbow6 3 and RB6 3 black arrow) wich i enjoyed. Its a return to these 2 games with brilliant HD Graphics, tweeked AI for a more hard and REAL Urban war sim. i liked the challenge it provided. The only 2 things i would change is the Night vision i liked the green from the previous games (its now black and white like splinter cell 1 from xbox1) and the fact you dont see sam fisher scaleing the building ajasent to your position as background entertainment­.ubisoft games are premium eye candy games that will show off the power of your console so if your looking for a pre halo3 SHOOTER to get you through the time to release (i cant wait for halo3) this is it. ps sorry about the grammer.
