Oka dragon mg solid 4 is probalby the best recon game but the best tactical shooter is gonna be rainbow six VEGAS... check this out http://movies.teamxbox.com/xbox360/rb6/R6V_10193.wmv Im gonna buy a 360 just for this game

I like the part where you can do various things to get around like rappel down the side of the building but Vegas just probably has one major issue with in... gameplay isnt so new, its been the same since the first R6. they could have tried a different approach.

Yea it is the same gameplay, but they blended the gameplay of splinter cell and ghost recon advanced war fighter, that’s what makes it more infiltration then the usual rainbow six’s. And the multiplayer has lots of more stuff check this

But anyway rainbow six is the best game of its kind "to date"

Only if it's PC version would have the same amount of scalability and replay value - including good mod and third party map support. Usualy I wont like a game unless you can mod it and it has maptools.

Yeah, and also you can do multiple things while rapelling (like breaking through windows, and flipping upside-down to shoot someone), so it should provide some different approaches no matter what your doing.

Never liked Rainbow Six, out of all the FPS games, Tom Clancy is full of him self. He takes it from reality too and it can't compete with America's Army, best game out there, and most realistic, don't try to argue with me about it, I won't pay attention leaving you in the well back there.

It would still have been better if R6 was more like conventional fps games that allow you to easily mod it, and even have thirdparty maps etc. Also, more things to do other than running around and hanging from a wire waiting to shoot the next guy with a mask to show up.

Not to agrue but America's Army sucks

Amen.

And Rainbow 6 is a stupid name.

Agreed...

But what else could've they called it?

Tom Clancy's creativity is outweighed by his focus on realitistic materials... I think it should have been called Schismatic Corpuscle (Being overly sarcastic of course...)

Well i dont really care about the name... True combat: elite is cheesy but its still a good game...

What is so bad about rainbow6 being the name? Just because rainbows have something to do with hippies and all the weed smoking nudist cr@p they feed into your children's heads, in our case our parents... well Rainbow 6 is a good name. BTW it isnt the name of the team but the name of the leader, as in the handler. Second in command is Rainbow 5 i think. Last time I read anyway.

AFAIK, RS1 looks good, but the newer ones are getting progrssively more acadey.

that reminds me, I should look at getting rainbow six out of the library (the book)
