This game has improved on Vegas 1 in some ways and has worsened in others. The story line is a decent ending to the first Vegas, although I felt the maps strayed too far from Vegas and had you in a lot of warehouses and what-not. The gameplay is excellent as usual. The new sprint feature is a welcome addition in the story and terrorist hunts and finally gives you the ability to get away from a grenade toss. But it does make online play seem a little faster and more like COD4 which isn't as enjoyable as the first Vegas was. I've heard from many Vegas fans who felt the online play quality went down with Vegas 2; it's a little too much like something a COD4 or Halo fan would like and not a Rainbow Six fan. I do like the new maps more than the last. They seem to have more directions to go and some are very big. New weapons are fun to try but I still use the same guns I used before. You can adjust the number of respawns in online matches regardless of what others say. The ranking isn't much, still easy to rank up and just as easy to boost too. ACES are easy to get through and pretty repetitive. The first week I played this online it seemed like 80% of the rooms were filled with people boosting. I think breaching charges were left out which is just ridiculous. The shotguns are nuts at close range but not so good as they used to be from a distance. There is one map that's useful for a sniper rifle and it's a map borrowed from Vegas 1. One other positive note is that you can adjust your room online to allow for people to join games in progress. So no more of joining a room only to find out that you have to wait 20 minutes to play. Overall it's a very good game that didn't change too much and changed a little for the better and a little for worse. I'd recommend it.
What's great about it: best shooter gameplay
What's not so great: not much new, laggy in story, not in vegas enough

This game is amazing! It has everything a first person shooter should have. The detailed environments and the A.I. are oustanding. Earning ranks and EXP points are also great additions to this sequel. Multiplayer is the highlight of this game. It is so addictive. This game deserves to be one of the greatest shooters of all time, even being ranked with Goldeneye 007. Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is a great buy. I highly recommend this title.

This game is one of my favorite games when it comes to strategy for shooters, and on a console. The duck and cover scheme is one that I have always loved, from Gears of War and Army of Two. You can rapple and take people out silently, search rooms with snake cams, and maneuver your team through tight situations. There is a very wide range of cusotmizable weapons, camo, and armor to suit your image of a real Rainbow Six Operative. You can add ACOG Scoped, silencers, and even laser sights on your weapons. I love games with ranking systems on it. The more you kill and destroy, the more you'll rank up. You start as a Private, and will eventually, if you have no life, make it to Elite. Which seems like it would take a long time.
Graphics are phenomenal in this game. I just love the gameplay and the storyline. The terrorist hunt is also extremely fun. This game can be played online, with co-op campaign and terrorist hunt. Loved it!
What's great about it: EXTREMELY HARD STORY(HARDEST LEVEL) GREAT GAMEPLAY | FUN MULTIPLAYER AND CUSTOMIZATION

I always end up buying the rainbow six franchise, because first person shooters are my favorite style of gaming and rainbow six in my opinion does it the best. Not to mention the online experience which, I think is the best out there right now. The only games that come close are Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4, but you will enjoy beating the game itself, while spending endless hours online on the fast paced heart pounding action this game brings.
What's great about it: Tom Clancy First Person shooter-enough said

I really enjoy this game, it is just as good as the first one. The one and only negative is that it is so similiar to the first vegas game. It is still worth playing, but maybe not much to get excited about and not worth paying so much more than the first one.
