DESCRIPTION

Guiding a team of specialists through famous Las Vegas locations including Fremont Street, and the Strip, players must save Sin City in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas. Working against the clock, a wise gamer will use all three members of the team to complete objectives and locate the people responsible before the time runs out.

Logan Keller is the team leader and recon expert that knows every nook and cranny of Vegas. Michael Walter is a heavy weapons and demolition expert who can offer advice on how to make it past large obstacles that, at first glance, may seem impassable. Jung Park is a long range and electronics expert who can hack into computers, or use a "snake cam" to locate enemies before entering a room.

Enemies in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas are designed to grow smarter and work together as the game progresses to challenge players thinking and planning skills. Internet play offers a variety of action including cooperative and competitive missions for a maximum of 16 players, and two split-screen players can enter online games together. Create a custom online character that will evolve and unlock new equipment and achievements through gameplay. ~ Gracie Leach, All Game Guide

Choosing your Style? by: CrescentCrux

“The worst thing I find about games if trying to find how to play my style. There are the basic style of Tank, support, Stealth and power attacker but I use a mix of them when I play. I try and take...”

“I too like to recon before acting (I'm mostly talking of Fallout 3 here).
In Fallout 3, I almost always wander in Stealth mode, and strike from hidden position for a powerful sneak critical attack of awesome super destructive power. Then plant some mines, sneak away, and laugh.
But sometimes, it's a better use of my time to save, run, die, reload. The second time around, I know where the enemies are and where I need to start being stealthy.
In addition, I'm a very poor shot, it takes me something like 1 second to properly aim. And it's worse on the console.

On more traditional FPS, I'm an even poorer shot, so I just run around and shoot while trying to outlive my opponent. Or I sneak, but that's not feasible in many games (L4D, CS).

In Mass Effect, I like to use the shotgun at point blank range, because good aiming is less important. Yeah, that involves a lot of exposure, but with good choice of armor (I always prefer good shield over damage reduction) and proper use of cover, it works very well.”

“In Oblivion I was strait Bow and dagger for stealth sleep kills (no Dual wield?), i had a long sword as a backup but that was it. But Oblivion had the problem of X-ray vision of DOOOOM which made my life bad till I got a few mods to make it a bit more realistic (and one that gave me exploding arrows of doom... but that was for a cheat character). WoW was a first change to that. I like Pally, Rouge, and Hunter. mostly focusing on DPS or Attack speed. For games with talking or cunning I always choose that way; If I can talk my way out and then talk my way into them giving me money, Why not?

I loved assassins creed, There was weapons to focus on all zones of attack, and stealth with climbing explore... AS2 hurry up!

The main thing i find in games that i don't see are Katar's and Jur's. I'd love to just run around with a pair and stab people... ”

“I never played AS, but I love Splinter Cell (haven't played Double Agent, though).
I also love dual wield: in NWN2 my favorite character was a dual shortsword rogue who would outdamage any other combatant. Even without sneak attack, he had many sorts of extra damage on his weapons, so he would plow easily through almost any enemy. And with sneak attack (improved invisibility FTW), it's lolwut? OMGWTFBBQ! Arghhh!
Well, ok, he wouldn't outdamage the average sorceror, but he compensated with the ability to stay alive through almost anything.”

“Solid through and through. The AI is just smart enough to give you a challenge. especially when they come in waves, use cover effectively, and shoot sometimes better than I do :P. ”
