Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Limited Edition Review
by admin on Feb.03, 2010, under Review
March 18, 2008 –
November of 2006 was a great month for Xbox 360 gamers. Two of the system’s finest titles to date hit the streets right before the holidays and players were beside themselves with how to budget their time in between the two. Should I spend time leveling up my character in the multiplayer of Rainbow Six Vegas or should I bring the fight to the Locusts as Marcus Fenix in Gears of War? For most the longstanding answer was the neon colored world of Vegas rather than the destroyed beauty of the other Unreal Engine 3 powered gem.
Eighteen months have gone by since the original Vegas and the world of geeks and nerds has been waiting with baited breath wondering whether or not Ubisoft Montreal would give them the sequel that they so desperately wanted. To be a true success in the eyes of many faithful fans, Vegas 2 must offer a fitting conclusion to the cliffhanger storyline, revamped gameplay and the most fleshed out multiplayer mode the world has ever seen. Rainbow Six Vegas 2, while a worthy follow-up, doesn’t meet such lofty expectations.
Let’s start with the good. There’s an all-new perpetual character system that allows for experience points as well as the new ACES (Advanced Combat Enhancement and Specialization) points to be carried over across all of the modes in Vegas 2. That means that if you kill a baddy and earn three points to your Assault category in single-player, those points will then make their way over to your next multiplayer or co-op game as well. Each of the ACES categories has 20 levels that can be unlocked, and each level has different rewards such as weapons or a big XP bonus. None of the rewards are as gratifying
