Not a PC game

By Wild Eep (cnet.com) Read the full review

If you want this game, please don't get it for PC. This is what anyone should come to expect from a Ubisoft game, knowing FarCry 2, and Call of Juarez's history of horrible porting and glitches. Really, this game would earn a perfect 5 from me if they...

Combat mechanics

Where to begin ; AI for both Squad and enemies is broken ; Graphic effects ; Lazy animation ; Poor porting (Controls, code, graphics)

WOW.. really WOW.. this is one of the best PC shooters I have ever played. ( and I played quite a number already ). The graphics are truly spectacular but demanding for your PC. I am playing it on a mid-end SLI config and have some limitation in...

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - Xbox 360 review - Pocket-lint

By Chris Pickering (pocket-lint.com)

Is this on the money?

Intelligent AI, fantastic multi-player options, lots of customisation on offer

It might not be much more than a tweak of the original, but it's a hell of a ride

Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 PC Review

By Wedgeh (gameon.co.uk)

Here we are with Tom Clancy's part prequel/part sequel to the rather good Rainbow Six: Vegas, imaginatively titled Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 and before I begin with the proceedings, may I take this opportunity to say that this game may be one of the finest...

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 (PC)

By (cnet.com)

The Rainbow Six team is the embodiment of Teddy Roosevelt's call to "Speak softly and carry a big stick." They're certainly discreet, and with their terrifying arsenal, they hit hard enough to make a baseball bat wince. But Teddy didn't say anything...

And even then, the PC version of this great tactical shooter doesn't quite measure up to the performances found on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. The AI seems even less capable than before, and the textures break, as does the frame rate whenever...

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas (PC)

By (cnet.com)

Fans of the Rainbow Six games for the PC have had every reason of late to be bitter. The popular tactical shooter franchise originally began on the PC and offered up the first realistic tactical shooting action around. However, over the past few years...

So there will be a tendency by PC fans to want to ignore Rainbow Six Vegas, which would be a mistake. Yes, Rainbow Six Vegas is essentially a direct port of an Xbox 360 game, but Ubisoft has done an incredible job of reinvigorating Rainbow Six. The...

Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2 Review

By Oliver Ranger (planetxbox360.com)

Fans of flight simulator games are typically looking for one of two experiences. A fast-paced, no holds bar thrill ride or the alternative, a highly realistic game where the utmost precision is a must. H.A.W.X. 2 is by Ubisoft to meld the two styles...

Due to the complicated nature of the controls, I felt much more satisfied with gameplay while doing aerial maneuvers with the flight stick. I applaud those out there who are already playing the game with ease, using just an Xbox controller. Outside of...

The lack of a flight stick doesn’t make H.A.W.X. 2 feel broken, but use of an alternative controller is highly recommended. Delving into the overall sexiness of the game, the jets are often fairly easy on the eyes and the environments are occasionally...

Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2

By Ryan Chapman (videogametalk.com)

From the folks at Ubisoft Romania that brought the first HAWX game to the 360 and PS3, Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2 rolled out on store shelves this week, much to the delight of modern, flight combat gamers. The narrative is typical Clancy style, bunny...

Discuss This Game on Our Official VGT Forum

The story revolves around missing nuclear warheads and the missions that are required to keep them out of enemy hands. Also typical to Clancy books, there’s enough military lingo in the game to make your head spin. The story isn't terribly captivating,...

Tom Clancy's HAWX 2

By Joe Sinicki (cheathappens.com)

From yard work to jury duty and everything in between, there's a good portion of life that's pretty friggin' boring. You know what shouldn't be boring? Flying an awesome fighter plane over foreign countries while taking out enemies in dog-fights. Yet,...

Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. 2

By Kyle Hilliard (gamernode.com)

Variety makes H.A.W.X. 2 better than its predecessor, but the core gameplay is still pretty much the same. If you are into aerial flight combat, then you will enjoy H.A.W.X. 2.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas 2

By Jared Black (vggen.com)

Despite some initial concerns I had, ultimately the original Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas turned out to be one of the most fun FPS titles of this console generation. Anyone who experienced that game's cliffhanger ending (or saw the sales charts)...

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 feels more like an expansion pack than a true sequel, thanks primarily to its lackluster single-player mode and incremental improvements in Persistent Elite Creation and online play. However, those improvements are...

It’s time for the Rainbow Six franchise to explore new territory, but you’ll enjoy this final trip to Sin City.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2

By Mike Flacy (videogametalk.com)

Launching off the popularity of the first Vegas title, Ubisoft tosses the player right back into Sin City for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2. While the campaign picks up at the tail end of the events from the first title, the timeline for Vegas 2...

Conclusion This title certainly doesn't launch the Rainbow Six series into new territory, but it does use the previous build to create a high action sequel in a little over 18 months. The well thought out narrative, addictive action and variety of...

Rather than continuing the story of the protagonist from Vegas (Logan Keller), Ubisoft opted for a customized experience instead. Designed by the player, the character goes by the name of Bishop and seems more comfortable in the role of team leader...
