Ubisoft Montreal Returns
Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is back in the hands of Ubisoft's Montreal studio,
creators of the award-winning and highly acclaimed Rainbow Six Vegas, to
ensure that ending to the Vegas story is one you'll never forget.
More Vegas
Sin City is back and bigger than before. Explore all new Vegas hot spots
as the environment changes from dusk to bright daylight to dawn,
creating a visual experience that is as challenging as it is
breathtaking.
More Multiplayer
The highly acclaimed multiplayer mode in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
has been upgraded to include 11 new, smaller maps that force more
intense face-offs, 2 new adversarial modes, more rewards, and easier
access to matches using the improved and intuitive matchmaking system.
Unprecedented Customizable Experience
Create your own identity that stays the same in both single player and
multiplayer modes and progresses as you do. Reap the benefits of your
single player rewards in multiplayer and vice versa.
Vastly Improved Co-op mode
Turn single player mode into co-op mode at any time, just by jumping
into the game. Now your friend can jump into your single player game and
help you without any change to the story. Single player maps and
storyline were created with co-op in mind, which means every map has
multiple entry points and the story is the same.
Improved AI

thermal vision, night vision, and shields -- not to mention a multitude
of varying reactions -- all of which are guaranteed to give you a new
playing experience every time you go into battle. As you progress within
the game, you'll only be able to outsmart your enemies by taking
advantage of intel opportunities, such as thermal scanning, and tactical
strategies, such as leapfrogging.
New Weapons and Armor
Take down the terrorists more effectively using 11 new weapons. New
camouflage, clothing and gear allow you to take customization to the
next level.

A big let down
I found the first Rainbow Six Vegas to be much better than this one. RSV2 seemed like a mediocre expansion pack as opposed to a sequel. I expected to see more of Vegas throughout the game. Aside from the nightclub, one casino floor, and portions of the convention center, the locations were boring and bland. There are more graphical options in this one than in the first (can enable AA, etc) however that doesn't make up for it's shortcomings. It's also a shorter game than RSV1, and in certain areas you can tell they increased the difficulty in an attempt to extend the gameplay (since everytime you get killed, you have to start over from a checkpoint which can get maddening.) If you haven't played the first Rainbow Six Vegas yet, get that one instead- much more variety, better locations, and more fun in general. |  | Reviewed on 2008-05-27
Good game but only if less than 30 bucks
Well, it is a good game with nice graphic. Fun game play fast action. Enough maps to choose for multiplayer. Easy control, even I played with my kids thru LAN. The new game cost $ 49.99 but now dropped down to 29.99. Good buy. I got mine from ebay with 19.99 + shipping. about 24 bucks used. As I mentioned, you should buy this game if it dropped cheaper than 30 bucks. You won't disappointed, believe me ! | | Reviewed on 2008-05-23
Screams unfinished.
I really wanted to like this game. I was really hoping this was going to be a more polished version of Vegas 1. Instead the game seems to have started that way but was pushed out the door long before completion.
The story mode seems to feature more attention to detail than the rest of the game. Multi-player story mode is fairly nice as far as the maps and the gameplay. I really wish they had not trimmed it down to just 2 players in that mode. The AI teammates controlled by player 1, are not incredibly useful other than to act as cannon fodder, luring out bots that have phenomenal accuracy and psychic tracking abilities. The overall storyline is quite forgettable IMHO.
Other gametypes are hindered. Terrorist Hunt has numerous issues. The way the bots 'spawn' in is downright hideous at times. Features have been taken from the control of the player such as the number of respawns. There are countless bugs in the game some major, and many minor. They scream "unfinished" or "hastily slapped together" and it is my belief that this game was released before it was completed. These hinder what would otherwise be a very fun installment of Vegas.

Great game
Once again, I cannot believe the disappointing reviews given for this game. You have the right PC, and all the right equipment, the game works great. I usually only play story mode. And I have found no major issues with it. Very few issues, major or minor. Really only one or two. Mike and Jung keep getting stuck in certain spots of the game. You have to go back and push them around to make them come back with you. But, this problem occurs very rarely and only in one or two areas of the game.
As far the story goes, two things puzzle me. Mike and Jung join Logan after they storm the theater with Bishop. Gabe disguises himself as an NSA agent and misleads Bishop all the way in the train yard. This happens on July 3rd - the same day when Logan, Mike and Walter go to rescue Gabriel from Dante's Casino. The time span is very small - Gabriel sure travels extremely fast between the two locations. And I guess we have to assume that Bishop was unconscious for a really long time after he was knocked out at the train yard. If not, Bishop would have already informed Logan about Gabe being a traitor, before they hit Nevada. This part of the story is really confusing.
While I believe it's a great idea to have your design your own character in the game and while I believe that it was thoughtful of the creators to allow female rainbow fans to choose a female character as the lead, I seriously think Vegas 2 needed more of Logan than anybody else. Or alternatively, they could have made it look like Chavez was back in the field temporarily in a time of crisis. A new Bishop character was both unnecessary and unrealistic, when viewed in light of the previous rainbow stories.
It is also unimaginable to see Logan playing such a small role towards the end after he took down a major character in the previous game (Irena). I don't know if this is the actual Tom Clancy story or not. So, I am not qualified to comment on the story.
But, overall, the game is great. None of what I mentioned is sufficient enough to warrant a rating less than five stars. Graphics are excellent, far less difficult than Vegas 1, which may or may not be a good thing. Music fit the levels and situations perfectly! | | Reviewed on 2008-05-18
Rainbow Six Vegas 2
The folks at UBISOFT have done it again. From the very start it is action packed. Lots of new suprises in the game that continue to make it one of the best running PC games on the market. I look forward to the next episode in the series. | |
