DESCRIPTION

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3 continues the squad-based shooter series with 15 new single-player missions, nine multiplayer maps, and over 30 weapons. Instead of directly porting the PC's Raven Shield, the developers at Ubi Soft opted to create an original release designed specifically for consoles. Players control Team RAINBOW's Ding Chavez throughout the entire solo campaign, commanding three fellow elite RAINBOW agents. The PlayStation 2's Rainbow Six 3 does away with the planning phase found in the PC version of the game, but the 3D engine still uses Epic Games Inc.'s Unreal technology for dynamic lighting effects and "soft body" physics. All levels in the single-player campaign can be played cooperatively with a friend in split-screen mode. Gamers with the PS2 Network Adaptor can also find deathmatch-style games online, for up to six players. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
