    Rainbow Six: Vegas soon!

    Hi all! Is anyone stoked about this game? Just a month or so and it's in our hot little hands! I'm a huge R6 fan and this one looks fun. I visit Vegas about every few years, so it will be fun to wreak havoc in that city R6 style.

    Im stoked too. To be honest, I don't know how they nailed it. But I always wanted to know what it looks like to rappel down the side of a Casino in vegas.

    I just pray this isn't as horrible as Lockdown.

    I wouldn't worry about it. There is an excellent gameplay video, very lengthy and very detailed. Check it out and your fears will be allayed.

    You'll be wanting the E3 2k6 Demo Walkthrough. Amazing stuff.

    Ubisoft apparently realised it would take much more than a trailer to bring back Rainbow Six to its former glory.

    Nice trailer, thanks for posting that! Gadzooks, it looks they they ARE on the right path here. I didn't think Lockdown was horrid, but it didn't even come close to classic R6. Raven Shield though, that was amazing. This trailer gives me hope!

    I didn't think the later ones were horrid, but they were certainly not up to snuff when compared to the earlier ones, that's for sure. This looks better, but we'll have to wait and see.

    It sure would! I've lost enough money there, I'd like a little vengeance! Gads, can you imagine all the shattered neon? I hope the environments are majorly destructable.

    According to Major Nelson, there will be a playable demo with the next XBox Magazine and it will be on the marketplace early next month. No word of the PC version getting a demo yet :-X

    Hooray for Major Nelson! Good news! I'd like to try both a CP and a 360 version, so I also hope for a PC demo. But at least there is confirmation of the 360 demo conming soon. Sweet!

    is this new R6 game going to suck like, say, everything after rogue spear?

    all the games in the last few years have basically been counterstrike clones.
