I cannot tell you how long I was waiting for Rainbow Six Vegas to come out. The release just keep getting delayed. Well finally it came out and I have to say I was not as thrilled as I thought I would be. Don't get me wrong that game is pretty good, but it was not what I was expecting.
Pros:
1. The graphics are not as great as they could probably be, but they are pretty sharp.
2. The movement and aiming system used is different, it is like a cross between auto aim like in Socom and manual aiming using the action buttons like in Metal of Honor. It is a nice set up, it takes a little getting used to but I like it.
3. Gameplay and story line are very good and replay value is high due to unlocking new stages and the online play.
Now for the cons:
1. I always like the Rainbow Six series b\c you have the ability to plan out your attack and work with the AI teammates. You will not find that with RB6 Vegas. In gameplay you play as an assault member (Brian) and a sniper (Shawn). It is not really co op you switch between the two roles on different stages.
2. The weapons menu is extremely small compared to the console version and there is only 1 silenced smg available kinda sucks when your success is based on quick movement and stealth.
3. The online is good, but it only supports 4 players. What are they ding, I mean Metal of honor supports 32. Also there is not communication (mic) or text. That is a huge downside.
4. The only time you see Vegas is on the cover of the case.
Over all I would recommend this game, if you love first person shooters as I do, there really are not too many good ones for the PSP and Rainbow 6 Vegas is one of the better ones and worth buying, but it really could have been done so much better.
