When you clear a room, use the camera snake and tag the tangos that pose the greatest danger to your guys. if there is a guy facing the door, breech the door instead of another option, OR if you have to enter with non-lethal entry force (hostages, etc.), then stand in front of the door where the tango is, and send the order. When the door opens, waste the tango immediately. It's not hard really, and you can get some fun +exp for it too (shotguns, for example have a great chance of hitting on blind-fire ).

both vegas games are thinkers, and require an exact strategy to play, expect plenty of redoes your first time through, but multiplayer is as fast paced and hectic as cod4's anytime, as far as single player think Half-life2 apposed to Halo(1-3).

Yup, very tactical but with with a degree of freedom in how you approach a situation. The annoying part is that there is not even near the degree of freedom of strategy that you had in R6 1-3. I do like that Vegas 2 brought back MORE weapons. I especially liked seeing the return of the FNC (one of my all-round favorite battle rifles in Raven Shield). Though the 552 commando is still a very unbalanced weapon (best weapon specs for assault rifles overall in the entire game and it's your STARTING AS). The different rifles do have different feels to them, though. Not as much with the SMGs, but at least they aren't the perfect little shooters they were in Vegas 1.

I miss the tactical planning screen. And the multiple fire teams.

I was pretty unimpressed by R6V2. I haven't really played a R6 game since Rogue Spear, so I don't know if this is an improvement over other games, but the squad AI was pretty awful, and there were some pretty serious graphical glitches. I saw a lot of sloppy bugs that shouldn't have been there. The cover system is decent I guess, but very awkward at times. Shooting around corners shouldn't be difficult to do. Gears of War had a much more effective and fluid system in my opinion. Another thing that irks me is that in splitscreen the graphics are seriously degraded.

Sure, its moderately entertaining to play in coop and MST3k your way through it, but that's about all it's good for. I just cannot take it seriously. It doesn't hold a candle to COD4 in any way.

Fun fact: Player 1's ridiculous camo-scheme will transfer to your squadmates, so you can get some awesome technicolour mix-and-match camo going.

I borrowed Rainbow 6 LV 2 from a friend, my opinnion: ITs a good game, seeing as I really loved Gears of War and COD4, it pretty much gets both pretty nicely done.

On a side note: GOW2 in November.

Yeah, Gears 2 is going to be hot. I'm more excited about Resistance 2 myself, more my type of monster invasion game, but you can't go wrong with chainsaw gun duels.

Resistance 2 is doing co-op and multiplayer RIGHT. Me thinks it's going to essentially rub the 360's nose in on who has the better console . All plugs are being pulled on it, so I'm definitely excited.

This Fall is going to kick for the PS3: Fallout 3, Resistance 2, Killzone 2, Ghostbusters.......and then this spring: MGS4, and Haze. Oh HECK yeah!

- Search by game title.
- Find appropriate No-CD/No-DVD version
- Download
- Find and rename current game .exe with STOCK.exe or similar
- Paste the modified game .exe in the same folder
Enjoy.

OR if you have STEAM (you really should, I recommend getting it if you don't have it)

- Activate your COD4 key to your STEAM account
- Download COD4
Enjoy.

I personally felt Rainbow Six Vegas 2 felt like a cheap rip-off of Call of Duty 4 and some other game I can't exactly remember the name of.
