This game has a good plot and gameplay, as you get to run around killing people... (it's fun to me!) and the sounds are remarkable... but those few things are not enough to save the game from the crappy graphics it has. The suits are so pixelated that their body and face looks like they have a bunch of square pimples. THE GRAPHICS ARE VERY BAD... if that factor doesn't bother you then it is a very fun game... graphics influence me a lot!

Rainbow six or bust

I think the grapics were good but selection of weapons was soperb. you'd have to point the enimies gun a you're head before they hit you. the sound was good. not enough shooting and bullets the shigun is king i once killed three guys with one blast.but what do i know i'm only 10. All i'm tring to say is rent it first.

Doesn't live up to the original PC version of the game

Rainbow Six is a HUGE game on the PC, too bad the Playstation version is LESS THAN MEDIOCRE. Targeted at Teen to Adult, this version falls way short from the popular PC version. Do yourself a favor, buy Medal of Honor instead. Maybe Playstation 2 will have the heat to give this title justice...it sure isn't worth it on the Playstation console.

This game is ok I guess. I rated it 4-5-4
The Game does get boring after you play and beat it a million times.
It is a good teaching game that shows kids what kind of stuff these people do. They protect the little people..lol

This game is a good first person shooter. If you like games that shoot, or killing people to save people. This game is for you

nice concept, interesting enough missions, but bad gameplay

I have never played any of the Rainbow Six games before, I've never read any of the books with that title. I picked this game up at an exchange place. I traded 2 other PS1 games I never played for it. It sounds interesting, playing counterterrorism experts, going in and taking out the bad guys, doing all sorts of missions...plus, it's a really nice look at the various ways they do missions, work together as a team, and you get to check out all the different weapons they use.

That's all fine and dandy, but the gameplay is too difficult. The game uses all the buttons, PLUS the buttons on the analog controllers too. It's very awkward overall. To run, you have to hold in the left controls while pushing forward or backward or whatever. To aim the gun, you have to use your right hand for both aiming and shooting (I usually throw my left thumb on the control to aim, because doing it with your right feels so odd, and it's nearly impossible to land on anyone.) Easy mode comes into play here, because I think it aims for you a bit. Either way, aiming is too hard to make it a great game. Even walking is a challenge sometimes, because you have so many different controls and buttons you have to use.

The missions I have played so far are fairly easy in the lowest setting (easy mode), and you get all 3 guys to play with, but like other reviews have mentioned, the buildings are boring. There is barely any furniture in any of them, and they all look fairly the same.

On the issue of the interaction with others in the game...it's rather odd. The ambassador in the first mission is standing in the middle of a room, but the terrorists couldn't find him? Also, the terrorists are very bad aims (again, in easy mode)...they'll take 10 shots before they even hit you, and it might take you ten shots just to aim the controls without going past them and actually take them down. Maybe I haven't had enough experience with the controls and it gets easier, but I doubt it gets easy enough where it feels normal.

Not bashing the game, because so far, I like it. It's enjoyable, and it's nice that you can select a difficulty level, and it's an interesting concept overall. With better controls and more depth and work done on each environment, this game could have been a lot better. I like it enough tho, and I'll keep playing till I beat it or get tired of it.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME

If you have heard anything good about Rainbow Six from Reviewers and such, that was about the PC game. They changed soooo much for this PSX conversion and it was all bad. B-A-D BADBADBADBAD. The levels bite, the planing stage is all messed up. All you can do is put three guys (In the PC vesian you get like 8) where they enter the building. In the PC version you tell your teams,(yes, teams) where to go once they're inside the building. The terrorist couldn't hit the sky with a shotgun, their aim is so bad. And your buddies are all deformed. You deserve so much better. Get the PC game. And if all you have is a PSX, get Rouge Spear for the PSX. That is very good and an excact dupicate of the PC Rouge Spear, which is even better than the PC Rainbow SIX. DONT GET THIS GAME AVOID LIKE SHIVA!

The controlability stincks. You die in one shot. And it gets boring without much of a story line.

Doesn't Match The Hype

This game isn't very good at all. The storyline is nonexistent at best and the objectives are easy and quick to achieve. The graphics aren't that good and the objects issued are few. I might be a little biased, but this game doesn't hold a candle to "Metal Gear Solid".
