And the best Rainbow game was the Ubisoft Montreal developed Rainbow Six 3, and so Vegas is in good hands.

....Really?!



The GRAW Series is fantastic, I' ve got no doubts about Red Storm' s skill as a studio, but I can' t stand Rainbow Six:3. The crap team AI alone is enough to make me want to kill something cute.

Rainbow is not dumbed down. 1headshot kills, 2-3 body shots kill(realistic when you consider body armor.

True, although you can' t look at body armor as the shield system from Halo. I want to meet the person who is not knocked flat on their ass, and green in the face from getting shot wearing kevlar. I know you know this, but people assume that wearing a kevlar vest means you deflect bullets like Superman himself.

Developed by Ubi Soft' s Montreal studio, in close collaboration with Ubi Soft' s Red Storm Entertainment,

Yes, really.

I' ll give it a second shot.

Still, Red Storm made Americas Army: True Soldiers. So until they redeem themselves, they are garbage.

Sorry Eddie, i though you were saying that Ubisoft Paris (Red Storm) had developed the game.

As for the AI, ...it wasn' t great but it wasn' t terrible.

Thats for fuck all sure...

No biggie.

I think my biggest problem was that I' d played the first 2 Rainbow Sixes, and then didn' t have anything worth playing 3 on (No way in hell I' d touch the PS2 version, & I' ve mentioned before how abysmal my old PC was), and then winded up playing the Vegas demo before I' d touched 3. I definitely didn' t play it when it was new & amazing.

Ah!

Well, it came out before Half Life 2, which was a sort of mini revolution for AI, ...but in 2003 it' s wasn' t bad.

I know the want to expand the audience, but niche gaming is dying out. I want something uniqui, there is a lot of deja vu these days.

Yeah, well, I missed that the first trip around as well.

Which genre isn' t getting a little stagnant these days?

Sex sims with proper lifelike add-ons...dude devs need to get in on it soon...

Creativity isnt totally lost, look at SoTC and Okami. Mass Effect might not be totally new but its a mix of things we havent seen before, and good rpgs are rare. I just dont see the point in making all FPS games so a like.

I hate that every single game is copying Halo' s regeneration system. In Rainbow your meant to die when you take a bullet or two, you can now take as many as you want if you just duck and wait. This is especially bad in mp, bring back the gimp!

I' ll give you that, the platforming genre does spit out an amazing title every once in a blue moon, however it' s really getting pushed to the side this generation in favor of hyper-realistic games like Rainbow Six and Call of Duty.

Not to say that I don' t love RS and CoD mind you, but when 9 out of 10 platformers in a generation are movie tie-ins...
