    Este jogo é incrível! Eu recebi e ainda não posso parar de jogar. Os gráficos são tão detalhadas para um game e é desafiador, mas divertido e terá que jogar por horas! A história é complexa e profundamente pensado. O melhor jogo que eu já joguei de forma

    It plays annoyingly fun , the tactical theme is somewhat improved but slyly . The graphics are dated, but fine enough. Rainbow Six is not beater of the multilayer, neither a single player landmark, actually they do it nice and decent.

    Une très bonne suite que ce Rainbow Six Vegas 2 avec quelques menus détails de jouabilité modifiés mais qui ne s'avèrent nullement décisifs au final. L'IA est toujours impressionnante, les musiques captivantes (toujours signées Paul Haslinger) et les graphismes égaux à eux-mêmes, c'est-à-dire des plus corrects.

    On note également une excellente VF et toujours ce réalisme si prenant à la

    On note également une excellente VF et toujours ce réalisme si prenant à la fois des flingues et des situations qui donnent lieu à des combats épiques.Cependant, on note des ralentissements fort désagréables dans quelques niveaux et une fin de jeu qui lorgne un peu vers le grand guignol. Le bilan reste néanmoins très positif et en fait avec le premier Rainbow Six Vegas, quelques Splinter et le Ghost Recon WL les meilleurs jeux issus de la licence Tom Clancy.

    I agree with wardieboy that it should have been an expansion pack but it is a huge step up from the original vegas. I especcialy like thefull character customization and improved multiplayer gaming but i also liked playing with the same people more than once rather than finding a new mathc eery time i want to play.

    A decent sequel, the new maps are amazing, but the weapons are still a bit old, and no matter how hard you work to unlock new ones, the ones you start with are just as powerful, and more than likely just as or more accurate, but this game is still worth buying, especially if you enjoyed the original RB6V.

    Don't Listen to the other gamers giving this a 0 and 4, that is untrue. The gameplay, graphics and online play have been improved hugely due some minor alterations. True the game has not been massively changed but the levels are completely different and the story is the best from any games I have played before! The multiplayer and terrorist hunt put this well above COD4 for me. Don't Listen to the other gamers giving this a 0 and 4, that is untrue.

    Tac shooter bliss. A perfect blend of tactical shooter and pure action, this game transcends the high mark set by Vegas 1. I love how you have to plan your actions and be careful but you don

    Very happy they did not change much from its predecessor. Finally a Developer which is thinking about the whole picture; adding level ups for everything in the game, Yay! I would give it a 10 but I was expecting more apparel to be added. The single player is much more interesting than before too.

    Smooth performance, fierce gameplay. For such a graphically rich game with plenty of moments where a lot of people, gunfire and explosions are onscreen at once this game runs silky smooth. Whether you are in campaign or multiplayer, the game has very little trouble keeping up. There are very few moments when the game

    it's pretty much vegas 1 with slightly different maps...however, during the first mission i swear i encountered a few hallways ripped directly outta vegas 1, seems like rather lazy game development on the part of ubisoft but it doesnt really matter i guess

    incredible piece of gaming bliss. if you're looking for a new tactical shooter look no further. while this game may not be leaps and bounds above original vegas, but it's in no way a lockdown (considering lockdown require absolutely no thinking at all). also, 11 new weapons plus new gear, the graphics are definately improved upon, while it may be no COD4 in looks, but i alsoincredible piece of gaming bliss. if you're looking for a new tactical shooter look no further. while this game may not be leaps and bounds above original vegas, but it's in no way a lockdown (considering lockdown require absolutely no thinking at all). also, 11 new weapons plus new gear, the graphics are definately improved upon, while it may be no COD4 in looks, but i also doesn't have something called a "glow" effect to cover all the textures either, which in turn, actually makes the game look more realistic. the gunplay is absolutely perfect and the multiplayer is great. once in a while there's lag, and if you don't like finding a new game every round, play in player matches, and considering the ranked leaderboards are all flubbed anyway, it shouldn't be a big deal. the map design in this game is far superior to anything i've ever seen in a game, and the co-op is always fun. buy or die.

    Meh. It was fun, but I've played so many better FPS titles on the 360 that its hard to justify buying this game when its basically the same exact game, except easier. The first one required a lot of command on your allies part, this time around I found my self doing most of the work, not to mention how ACES rewarded me for not letting my allies get any kills, what's up with that.Meh.

And its short, even on realistic, ignoring, my buddies my first run through was only six hours. Its super buggy, enemies spawn out of nowhere in T-hunt and people take unfair advantage of the sprint function in online play, if I want to play COD4, I'll play COD4, but Rainbow Six is about tactics and stealth not running around like a jackass. But these are all trifles, the game is still really good, I really like some of the weapons and the cover system. Its just hard to justify buying this game, its not good or unique enough to differentiate itself from its kickass predecesor. Also, you didn't fight in as many casinos, that was a real letdown I mean come on, that's what Vegas is all about, right? Expand

    I loved the first and this is what I expected in a sequel. The VS multiplayer is great but the Co-op really makes this game shine. If you're a fan of the first, buy this one. If you didn't like the first than this new one won't win you over.

Generally though, they are much smarter. XP is gained and carried forward in all modes now - great stuff - so by the time you play MP, you have levelled up quite a lot (especially if you play Terrorist Hunt!). OK, so the graphics are not COD4 standard, but don't let that put you off. Also, you need to play this game with more than just run and gun tactics. Play Terrorist Hunt to learn the maps before you play multiplayer - it'll help. Does it sound like I've become a Terrorist Hunt fanboy? you bet! Expand

    Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 is a true sequel no matter what people say. Yes, game play was the same, but that was the reason I came back again anyways.

I haven't had problems with any lag or glitches that others talk about, but that isn't to say it doesn't exist. So a patch would be nice to help out those who do have these problems. The game fixed what I didn't like about the first game and made me love the experience even more for it. Few sequels improve as much as this game does when truthfully reflecting upon the game, it has so many changes that add up to create a wonderful, lasting experience. Graphics have also received a significant boost. When the playing the first one, sometimes I felt like I was playing an Xbox game. This one boosted the graphics to a satisfying level. I won't lie, it isn't anywhere close to Call of Duty 4's graphics, but the important part is that they pull me in. Which the first one didn't and the this one did. There are a few random parts that are Vegas 1 level (mostly vehicles have this problem). Looking at the game from a neutral view, I can easily say that this game warrants a nine. Expand

  1. A hell of a package. It's sort of a shame that so much of it is recycled from the last game, but nobody stops eating their favorite food because it's similar every time - and this is the Kobe beef of tactical FPS. [Apr 2008, p.80]
  2. Ubisoft has taken a huge gamble by not making wholesale changes to Rainbow Six Vegas 2, but it's come up smelling liike roses. It's still one of the very best-value, high-quality FPS packages available on the 360. [Apr 2008, p.72]

    Suffice it to say that if you enjoyed the first Rainbow Six: Vegas, then you will undoubtedly find considerable value in Vegas 2.
