Rainbow 6 Vegas 2 Review

Founder: Tom Clancy
Devolper: UbiSoft Gaming
Name: Rainbow 6 Vegas 2
Platforms: PC, PS3, XBOX 360

Personally I am a huge fan of the Tom Clancy Rainbow 6 Vegas video game for the PS3. However, I was really disappointed with the final cut screen of the first game, and how it left you with a cliff hanger ending. But I guess everything happens for a reason cause the ending had sequel written all over it. And almost two years to the date they have done it with Tom Clancy Rainbow 6 Vegas 2.

Pros

• - Amazing First Person Shooting Action (best I have seen next to MGS4)
• - The new sprint ability really helps speed up game play
• - Evolution to the Console gaming
• - Ground Breaking Graphics and Sound
• - Being able to rank up on single player! Yahoo!

Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. ~John F. Kennedy

I Am Hit! I Am Hit! … MEDIIIIC!!!!!

Don’t you just love that voice for help when you are hit, from the previous Call of Duty 3? Wasn’t it a bit creepy in the beginning but when you got used to it, it became friendly? Want to hear it again and again?? Well you can hear it AGAIN in Infinity Ward’s newest achievement to the Modern World called Call of Duty 4 – Modern Warfare.

This game is exhilarating to the point where you want more and the more you want the more you get sucked into the black hole that this game creates. It is a jarring, intense, and gripping take on war in the new millennia, said by IGN reviewer Hilary Goldstein.

Overall Game Play:
Ever wondered what it would be like to get hit in the Leg? Arm? Body? How about the Head?

Well now you can go beyond your wildest imaginations in Read the rest of this entry »

A man’s feet must be planted in his country, but his eyes should survey the world. -George Santayana

RISE UP!
And look at the ongoing wars between good and evil through Snake’s eyes. You will see desperation, determination, inspiration and overall patriotism.
I don’t know about you but, I am a big fan of the old coming and going Snake Series. The first ever Metal Gear Solid was good, had various glitches, and the graphics back in the days were worth the game.
As a new era begins for our hero Snake, so does it for us gamers, as Konami brings us to another great year with a world breaking in graphics technology with MGS 4 - Guns of the Patriots.

Overall Game Play:
