Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

I've heard some good things about this game, and I've also heard that Halo 3 is overrated and GoW is too short and online is lacking. (If that stuff isn't true, please don't flame me for it.) So, should I get this game?

EDIT: I have CoD4 btw...

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

i was thinking of buying it too but i heard the A.I. isnt that smart and ruins co-ops when partnered with them.

i heard about it here: http://www.expotv.com/Tom-Clancys-Rainbow-Six-Vegas-2/36-19Xw

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

If you have CoD4, don't worry about RSV2. The original is better, but no one really plays it anymore. Halo 3 is fun, but it is insanely overrated. I would suggest it for multiplayer purposes, but don't expect CoD4 quality gaming. GoW has fairly good multiplayer, which is a lot different to CoD4, RSV2 and Halo 3. Get it if you're looking for a change, and some gore.

You're right about the AI, it's absolutely shocking. Enemies just run in front of you like they're trying to give you a hug, and your squad mates seem to be attracted to bullet fire. They get stuck outside the map a lot too.

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

Vegas 1 was great, so i only hope 2 is great too. one of the things i love about the R6 series is being able to go up against the wall for cover and poking out from behind it. thats one thing i wish was in COD4.

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

I loved how vegas 1 had the cover option, and the ability to change everything on you. The skills required to play the game, and how you cant just 'run and gun' is what got me addicted. I rented vegas 2 a few days ago, and it wasnt what I thought it would be. I played the story a bit, and the AI is stupid. They rarely shoot at an enemy when they see one, and I pretty much have to tell them to do everything. The only thing there simi good at is a breach and clear, and even then I have to a snake cam, mark 2 enemies, tell them to breach and clear, they kill 2 people and I take out the rest.

I've even had them walk right in front of me while I was shooting, only to have them yell at me to watch my fire, then the guy I was shooting at kills me.

The graphics are a disappointment to, they look like something that was on the first xbox.

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

I would pick Gears Of War if I was you, there are still plenty of people online and the campaign is very good aswell.

Aye, the graphics were a disappointment. When I first played Vegas 1 (which was the first game I played on an Xbox 360), I was astounded by the amazing graphics. Even today, those graphics are some of the best I've seen on the console. Vegas 2 actually seems to be of lesser quality. The first thing I noticed when booting up the game was the crap textures on your character. You really notice it too, since a lot of the game is spent in third-person view.

About the only thing Vegas 2 does different than the original is the great ranking system. They definately succeeded in that idea, it's almost as good as the system in CoD4. Everything else, sadly, doesn't seem to top the original game. The graphics are worse, the AI is dumber, the campaign is boring, the maps are dull, and so on.

Vegas2 if *bleep*ing awesome, it makes CoD4's alledged realsim fall greatly, Vegas really i s a realistic tactical shooter with a solid cover system. True CoD has better graphics but I prefer Vegas' gameplay.

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

idk y but i really hate the gameplay in vegas 1 campaign espicially...
the normal was unbelievable hard and furstrating for me, so it took me a while to finish and i only did that for the sake of finishing it. It seems really gay how you are behind cover, and then suddenly a terrorist from like 300 meters away kills u...
just wait for gta 4 and get that instead if u wanna new game.
the online gameplay was ok but nothing special in rbsv1

re: Rainbow Six Vegas 2?

Yeh.

R6V2: is a fun game but you need to spend alot of time playing it until you get good, you have T-hunt if you want to train.

Halo: pretty decent online mode, alot of annoying kids and noobs, but takes more skill than Cod4

Gears: Great story mode, awesome graphics, juicy (lots of blood), fun as hell, but sometimes very laggy online and alot of glicthers. If your not getting gears get gears 2. I have all the games mentioned but call of duty 4 but i played it twice and its really like Frontlines:FOW but better. Gears is the best but multiplayer gets a bit boring because you hardly have any guns and no vechiles except story mode and no customization but overall is great, also there is hardly anyone who plays this now.
