    Rainbow Six Vegas is a fine portable shooter.

    It’s definitely worth a rental at the moment until it drops in price, where it’s definitely a better buy at $20 or $30. That’s an unfortunate circumstance for what is an enjoyable game that goes beyond being just a port by bringing a new story and campaign to the table.

    Sadly it's a little too short with a lack of replay value, but you'd be hard pushed to find a title with better production values on the PSP. [Issue#156, p.85]

    Excellent tactical shooter hampered by the slightly sluggish controls. [Sept 2007, p.84]

This plays more like a strange hybrid of the older titles and Vegas. Control-wise, it’s pretty typical for the PSP: the analog stick moves the player, the face buttons are used to look, the left trigger locks on to your opponent (the face buttons can be used to change the position of the lock, such as aiming at the head or chest), right trigger fires and D-Pad handles auxiliary functions such as interacting with the environment or switching/reloading weapons. Gameplay-wise, it’s a relatively slow game. Most of it is spend indoors: it feels a bit like the older Rainbow Sixes, but less refined. It’s difficult, but not unplayably so; the main issue is the AI, which is not smart. Enemies will often stand still and shoot; they either will or won’t notice the player. It really does harm the game, because they aren’t fun to fight. The story feels like an afterthought; honestly it’s pretty forgettable. In the end, it’s a functional FPS for the PSP; it’s pretty mediocre, and I’d personally recommend Coded Arms or Medal of Honor: Heroes over it. It’s fine for the system, but there are far better choices.… Full Review »

    THis game is so UNFAIR you only get 5 Magzines for your primary weapon and some of these missions are very long you cannot refresh yourTHis game is so UNFAIR you only get 5 Magzines for your primary weapon and some of these missions are very long you cannot refresh your ammo...you can't pickup ammo/Grenades from dead enemies,, Thats UNACCEPTABLE. There are NO Health packs EVER! at any Point!!! The Checkpoint system is a **** joke. so If you're injured and low on ammo or have no Ammo you are screwed. If you still own a PSP dont waste time on this.… Full Review »
