Game has great graphics and plays well. Only dislike was the difficulty in going from level to level when playing co-op. Once I figured that out the game flows and is a great deal of fun.

Fantastic game..very addicting..

I am so glad that I purchased this game, its amazing. Everything from graphics, sound, gameplay, level design,and weapons are great. Its very customizable, you can even create your character to look like you. Also it has an option to be a female, which most games I play do not have. The split screen co-op mode is fantastic( my favorite mode). The graphics are very realistic and well designed. You have the choice of choosing your difficulty, realistic is my favorite,the ai is more developed, but it can also be more frustrating. Also there is extra maps available on xbox live, which can add extra gameplay. The story mode is very good as well.Even after completing the story mode and terrorist hunt, I continue to play this multiple hours every week. Overall I would highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys this genre.

2006 Game of the Year!!!

Easily the most enjoyable game I own on the xbox 360. The ability to intuitively take cover using the left trigger is awesome, as opposed to the unnatural cover in the two ghost recon games. The weapons are awesome and very satisfying. The co-op modes are a-lot of fun too. My only question is why do all the terrorist speak such good English (profanity) with an American accent?

Ok game.

This game being the first Rainbow title on the 360,it had a lot of hurdles to jump.Gameplay is good,graphics are good,but there are subtle things that experienced gamers miss from the previous Rainbow titles on other systems.
Online play is fun,but getting a lot of kills and playing a lot of games just to unlock a new camo color?..please.

Being a Rainbow title,it's mostly in-doors,but some of the maps are rather large,and while it make take a few seconds to make it across a rooftop..it doesn't lose what all the Rainbow Six games have.
The cover system is good,but I would have liked to have the lean function and the ability to use the D-pad to open or close a door quietly(like on previous Rainbow Six titles)

Pretty good, probably worth it, at least on XBOX 360

I started this game just after completing COD4, so I was a little disappointed in that this game is slower. The background graphics are good, but I was spoiled by COD4's superrealistic AI and character graphics, which now sets the bar. The game was overall a lot of fun but very frustrating at times- save points were very far between and you would often, very often, have to restart from the beginning after making it very far into the scene. Especially frustrating after successfully strategically placing your men and carrying on a successful "mini-assault" which could take several minutes only to bite it with a stray shot and having to start all over again. The pace was fairly quick in the beginning and this was not so much a problem for the first third of the game. Then things would really bog down and that frustration would set in. They could have installed a LOT more save points. Also, as conservative as I was with deploying my men, by about a half way point I found mysef more often than not having the men hold and I would go solo. This was due to the fact that even as cautious as I was, the guys would constantly be shot down and then I would eat it while trying to rescue and heal them, got pretty annoying many times. An occasional time or two was okay, but it got too repetitive and annoying. I found too that it would move things along to have them make the tactical entry, and then I would quickly have them fall back. I almost only gave this one a 3 star, but in all fairness it kept my interest level and did entertain.

There were a couple glitches, one being that a few times while throwing a grenade through a window, the grenade would stop and freeze in the opening (usually not going off either). Once it go off after I had completed my mission and returned to check on it. What was up with that??? Also, on the xbox 360 controller, while switching between weapons on the buttons, many times my night vision would activate as well, without touching the right button. That seemed to happen quite a bit at the most inopportune times. They could have lightened up on the profanity and the use of the "F" word by the opponents was inappropriate altogether.

As for pluses, I found the camera snake very handy and marking opponents for priority killing was cool. The incendiary grenade made for some "special" kills too and seemed to have more impact than the frag grenade.

Good game

This game was GREAT when it first came out, but with big action titles like Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4 out this game will slip into the dusty shelves of ignored games. The multiplayer is great, but has since been overshadowed by COD4.

My First Clancy Game

I have not played any other Clancy or Rainbow Six games. But I do own this one, and it was a lot of fun to play.

There is a slight learning curve in the controls. But once you learn how to issue commands, the squad based tactics are a blast. Choosing the stance for your squad mates (defensive or offensive), having them enter a room guns blazing, or clearing a sector with a flashbang, it all adds up to a good time.

This game does take some thought to complete certain parts. And in some situations you have to learn from your mistakes and adjust accordingly. You also have to continuously think about your squads stance, making sure they aren't in offensive mode, attacking everything that moves, when you're trying to sneak around. And you need to think about the tactics your going to use when entering certain rooms and stuff. The best part of the game is the fire fights, which can be pretty lively and entertaining. You will be making good use of cover throughout the game.

Would recommend to any 360 owner looking for a fun game to play.

Gotta Love It

This is I'd say one of the best games I have played. I prefer this game to anybody who hasn't bought it. One of the best Tom Clancy games produced.

Don't make any plans...

I got this game for Christmas, and I have not been able to put it down. Normal difficulty is challenging but not impossible, but put it into realistic mode and it is insane!!!!! If you thought 300 spartans was impressive, try securing Vegas with just 3!!! The single player is great and the multiplayer is off the hook!!! A mist own for PS3 or X360

I hope there is more where this came from!

My partner and I played this game in the co-op mode on realistic. It was a BLAST! The graphics are perfect (especially on a 46" Flat Screen HD TV). It took us almost a week (we didn't play all day long...but during our downtime) to beat the "secret labs" level. The last level...was a little disappointing because it took us one try and about 15 minutes to beat. (We were hoping for another week of this game!)

Highly recommended...I played Halo 1 and 2...and really enjoyed those games...this one is even better!! We were half way through Gears of War and stopped playing it all together to play all the way through RB6.

We found the AI to be very realistic...and challenging. The enemy would actually charge at us, take up sniper positions, and flank our positions which made it even more challenging. I found several positions to set up as a sniper while my partner would search and clear. We found ourselves actually verbally communicating actions to keep each other alive. ("Frag-out," "Clearing," "Contact, right" "Suppressive fire")

I like the controls for this game...yes, it would help to be able to sprint between locations. However, the one touch "change between" items was pretty impressive.

Recommendations for future games: We work in and around South West Asia...it would be pretty cool to have something with a "third world" feel. For example: Kids begging you for money and food, political unrest for what you are doing back on the home front, Improvised Explosive Devices, and an enemy who looks like everyone else in the local populace. (No that would be impossible)

Four player Co-op on same screen, more weapons (RPG's...call for indirect fire), and more bad guys.

I would love to have a game like this in a non-urban environment...or an urban environment with more innocent bystanders. Even more realistic.

I do recommend this game... now I am on the hunt for another game like this one.
