Balthazar I literally quit playing the game after finding myself stuck in that solo refinery level on Realistic, when you spend twenty minutes in a single section trying to kill people and hiding when shot and then immediately dying when enemies just spawn around the corner and one shot you.
Ikcatcher I was too stubborn. I've played Lone Wolf terrorist hunt on realistic until I've beaten it on every level. Took a lot of sweating and figuring out the AI, but I did it.
Ikcatcher I still didn't have the patience to unlock every single ACES level (I think I had all the weapons, maybe, but it was incredibly grindy). It was back when all I had was a PS3.
"Control your shots. Make each one count!" "He's dead! We're fucked!" I really love the enemy banter in this game :') Also, playing Terrorist Hunt with my twin brother was always a great time!
I LOVED the PVP for this game, the gameplay was tight as hell, customizing your guy was addictive as hell and there was so many great weapons. Hell of a game.
i used to rock terrorist hunt 24-7 online in this super ghetto setup, my outfit was dark blue pants, a white tank top, and a balaclava. my load out was the glock 18, ak47, and silenced mac 11. was a super funny and fun set up and i actually did pretty well in it, the comments i got from other players about my outfit were a hilarious bonus
@@epicninja2378 its a last gen game. It was great at the time and for the veteran players it will always be great. Cant imagine someone who never played super mario 64 back in the day would think it was "great" if they played it now.
a game being fun does not necessarily translate well to it being a worthy installment in a series and the Vegas sub-series was a prime example of that, it introduced the series to an era of depriving long-standing franchises of their trademarks so as to casualize them and make them more approachable to newcomers - which I don't have an issue with, I understand such moves, but publishers don't think of making any sort of a compromise most of the time
and it should go without mentioning that the concept of "fun" is a rather vague and subjective one - I had fun drawing a plan for one of the missions (the one at an airport) in Raven Shield, while you might think of that as tedious and too much involvement in a video game that they were unique is what made them stand out for me, whereas I felt the Vegas games were quite bland and lacking of any memorable peculiarities
Dick Chavez actually made his debut is the Jack Ryan novels I believe and worked with and was mentored by John Kelly, one of the best Tom Clancy characters ever written, and was one of the founding members of Rainbow Six.
49mozzer I wish they could've atleast included a nod to some of the characters from the book. Hell the older Rainbow Six games actually allowed you to pick just about every Rainbow team member from the book into your squads. They don't even mention John Kelly or Dick Chavez in Siege, they could have atleast included a training mission with Dick but they didn't. They had a lot of wasted potential there.
I loved this game's customizing system to death, I remember having the main menu theme burned into my mind from hearing it loop over and over from the many hours spent making tons of different character looks and loadouts. Sadly, games these days have mostly bare bones customizing that offers little fun
Right?! The customization was so good and I loved getting max level so I could make custom camos. The theme music is forever burned into my mind as well. I was playing MW3 and they have some music that sounds similar and it made me wanna play/watch stuff on Vegas 2 lol. I miss the multiplayer/terrorist hunt more than almost any other game. I wish we could all go back!
Playing through both these games on Realistic recently, revealed to me how much better this one was when it came to level design and friendly AI. The guys in 1 constantly get downed or killed, in this one, they tend to stay alive a lot more and drop more enemies because of it.
These days, the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter PC titles (Developed by GRIN on their Diesel engine nowadays famous for it's use in the PAYDAY games) are pretty much no longer sold digitally (I think Ubisoft pulled them after the GameSpy shutdown), but they are available on disc and have one shockingly well-archived collection of community modifications, and I think I caught wind of a multiplayer revival project. I haven't played them myself, but there's some potentially rare merit to be found within these games (Towknee's showcase of weapons such as the MP5 within the game displayed the ability to not only account for the round in the chamber, but allow it to be fired mid-reload and have the reload animation change to account for it). I certainly had me some quality time with the GRAW titles on the Xbox 360 in my youth thinking of them as "The closest thing to Brothers in Arms in a modern setting". Perhaps the biggest aging factor that I immediately encountered in an attempt to revisit them sometime ago was the horrendously low aim-sensitivity that cannot be adjusted (Something that made revisiting BLACK as someone who played games like Halo & Destiny at sensitivity 7-8/10 very difficult).
I love Vegas 2 to death, I just don't like how some people use it as the standard Rainbow Six should be at. It's such a simplistic game compared to the older R6 games.
i actually loved the simplicity of these graphics, they werent bogged down with overly detailed environments or lighting fx so everything felt sharp and clear
That long ass lone wolf mission will put hair on your chest. Shit was crazy, it almost makes you feel like Sam Fisher when you carefully stealth through it.
I still remember the days when I used to play Vegas 2 day and night, that and left 4 dead 2, shame siege is slowly turning into garbage instead of sticking to it's tactical/realistic roots.
Cold hands Yeah Siege is still very fun but the more operators they add, the more ridiculous and cartoonish it becomes. I wish they'd just add a vanilla mode with the base operators and maps for OG players.
Dr Strangelove I like the idea of adding new maps and operators every season but the new operators are getting so cartoonish. An operator who can deploy holograms of herself? And operator who can inject nano-machines into her teammates which gives them more health and recoils control? Siege is supposed to be a realistic tactical game but it gets more cartoonish and archady with every season.
Fun fact, the ads in the game were cloudsourced and would change depending on what Ubisoft was advertising at the monent, like a movie in theaters that weekend or a game that was coming out. I remember playing Vegas 2 and seeing ads for Assassin's Creed 2, which came out one year after the game.
Vegas2 is a really good Rainbow Six light (no pre-mission planning and overall somewhat arcadey third person coversystem) game ... heavily consolified yeah but still a lot of fun in coop and even solo. Nice video you really did it justice.
I remember making a green helmet and when I would hook around in vs mode the other team (sometimes) would mistake my green helmet for the green icon that means "same side" and they'd be running out of their spawn while I was running in, and they wouldn't shoot me, and let me get in good position behind their front line. It worked more times than it failed.
they also had an amazing amount of non custom camos aswell, like every major nations military and swat style police force camo pattern was in that game they even had the ww2 olive drab color scheme
It was so awesome! I made all kinds of em but my favorite was classic woodland with blood red, dark grey and black. Damn I miss that game. I also put my face on my character and it actually turned out really good. Even had my beard and gauges in it lol
I remember getting this game on ps3. The first time I played it was at my cousins house and I fell in love with it and bought it myself from GameStop. So many good memories with this game.
Out of all the games I have on my 360, I'd always come back to this. Sure, you'd get your ass kicked far too many times, but as you said, it was a blast coming back in different ways with different weapons in order to figure out the best way to win. God, I miss this game!
gelul12 I never was able to play multiplayer on them but I always had fun replaying the missions looking for hidden objectives and trying new strategies.
Aww old memories quick scoping with the d pad at the best snipers across the damn map. I was one of the last players on game before they shut ps2 servers down
I remember playing this with a buddy of mine. I’d always go for a realistic looking character with heavy armor and camo, while he’d always wear the brightest color he could pick and wear no armor aside from a vest, running around with an LMG and hollering like a monkey. Good times.
People looking at the old games with rose tinted glasses is too true I kept seeing the positive reviews about Raven Shield and was very looking forward too it Except it didn't last very long when I realized how busted the A.I. is and completely throws any pre-planning and tactical gameplay out the window Vegas 2 might not have pre-planning or permadeath, but at least it doesn't have human sentry guns for enemies
Hey Gman from 3 years ago, my hope for games like Ready or Not is that they can fill that Vegas 2 type PVP. RS:V2 was an incredible game. I remember playing terrorist hunt with my cousins and doing competitive matches via Gamebattles on XBOX 360 with them and some friends. Game was a masterpiece. The unlock system was highly addictive and FUN to grind. The maps were incredible, and offered an intense PVP experience. I loved everything about RSV2
This game is still the best Tom Clancy game ever. Epitomizes everything that was good about this series. I still play it on my Series X but I would love a next gen upgrade
I have many memories playing Terrorist Hunt with friends and going through the campaign coop on Realistic. Good times. I will warn those playing on Realistic difficulty, the enemies do not miss and you die in two or three bullets at best. Here's a good tip, don't take cover behind cars. The enemies will shoot your feet and you will die. There are at least two lines I remember the enemies saying in Terrorist Hunt: 1) "Would it help if I ran into your bullets!" 2) Oh shit! He's dead! We're fucked!"
man ... i remember this game, played "the shiiieeet" out of this game PVP, realistic TH, and joining random realistic storymodes on XBOX Live back in the day - was a legit lvl 92 Elite. Gameplaywise one of the best RB6 Games - it was so much fun, even when sometimes unfair (realistic terrorhunt & SPAS onehits - while you cant hit a barn door from 1 meter distance) Brought back good memories - i think ill get it a run now, didnt play it for years thanks for this review :D
This game is pretty awesome, and makes for a great co-op experience on either the campaign or terrorist hunt modes. My first roommate and I both had this for our PCs and the male bonding was real.
Great review man. Still Imo I think that the funniest chatter at videogames award must go to the legendary Company of Heroes. For example when you order your volksgrenadiers to stop (the first basic crappy inf unit) the leader will shout "halt, I said halt! I feel like at the teacher at the boot camp" or when you upragade them with mp-40s "volksgrenadiers, try not to shoot each other" and as a last final example when you order your grenadiers to retreat, they sometime will shout "Grenadiers, tactical withdraw to Hq"
Recently I replayed through the game, at one point I got bored took off all of my armor got ak and somehow beat a few terrorist hunt don’t know how but I did, and it was surprisingly fun.
oh man. I spent hundreds of hours on this game. Such a good time it was. I never played vegas 1, but after playing this I never could. Ubisoft had a good handle on stealth games back in the day especially with splinter cell. So this game giving me options to either go stealth or full blown attack squad was really fun. This still exists to the day with all their ghost recon titles, rainbow six games never disappointed, and I say that because I've clocked nearly 2k hours on siege as well lol
I've only experienced the Vegas series by backwards compatability on Xbox One. Around the Christmas Siege came out I got the game, but it was a special edition loaded with two codes for Vegas one and two, and I honestly preferred them to Siege at the time. I loved the cover based shooting, and more of the tacticality. It's an amazing game, I can't wait to get my PC to play Vegas two on there, it seems much better than console.
Vegas 1 is my first ever FPS, my parents got it for me and my big brother when I was about 10 and I enjoyed every second! My dad finished the game himself soon after:) I'll never forget the frustration after getting the "to be continued" screen after completing the game
I tried the texture-mapped face long ago, and I thought it was just my mullet messing around with the registering of my face...but it seems like I wasn't the only person having problems with it. Thanks for reaffirming that.
I believe you neglected to mention the custom camo, unlocked at the highest few levels. Being able to run around in a bright pink tank top and denim jeans was all part of the online scene. This worked well in the online, as it was actually beneficial to wear proper camoflague for each map.
I still love going back and playing this game. When you get to the elite rank you can customize your own camo so you can litterally be rainbow police... good times
Ok so I've only seen like 5 of your videos now and I havent started watching this one yet but I'm about to. I found out about your channel through Civvie11 and I just want to say I love your channel already. I was watching you Killzone video and I thought to myself "I wonder if he's played Rainbow 6 Vegas", I search it up and boom here I am watching the man who hss apparently played every game in history and reviewed them
I STILL come back to this game sometimes, and I don't enjoy video games any where near as much as I used to growing up. Having played many other Tom Clancy games other than Splinter Cell Conviction (I think that was the title). Had some nice stealth gameplay but nowhere near as much replayability as Vegas 2. Even that main menu music is nostalgic. Probably my favourite FPS game in terms of gameplay. Love the ability to command your own small team in single player. The thermal sights combined with tactical stealth felt like something straight out of the Predator movies that I was a huge fan of around the time I was getting into the game.
Cool little note. Ding is actually one of the original founding members of Rainbow. Second in command to John Clarke, played by Willem Dafoe in clear and present danger.
I would buy vegas 3 in a heartbeat if they ever made it. Definitely was room for improvement on the T-Hunt (the team style from Vegas), specifically the spawns, objectives, and civilians. Wish ubi would've added t-hunt to siege or made vegas 3 instead of division.
nothing could ever beat the fun of terrorist hunt with a buddy. whether it was on the same tv with a console or PCs at a LAN center it's a blast. Definitely, need to re-pick this up thanks for the solid review.
I felt really disappointed by the Terrorist Hunt mode in Vegas 2. I loved it in Raven Shield, but it seemed like no matter whether I used a suppressor or not, after I fired one shot every enemy in the level would converge on the nearest doorway for me to mow them down. I didn't get to see much past the open areas of the T Hunt levels as a result.
Love your reviews,always well thought out and your honest opinion about the games that you play(and play most of and/or the whole game) they’re good fun and i always look for your review before i buy a game. Keep it up! Also,you should review the xcom games.
This was my fave fps game in the ps3 era. Realistic difficulty is so challenging and it was so fullfilling to finish a mission or even their skirmish mode with ai. I love the concept of having a squad which you can control and strategize, unlike cod games which ai firefights seem scripted. The ai teammates and terrorists are both good and stupid. Man how come they dont make these kind of games anymore. Id pay to play a remastered version of vegas 1 and 2
What i don't like about this game and Ghost Recon future soldier is that terrorist hunt can get really cheap with the enemy spawnning, altho it can be more or less tweaked on PC.
Realistic difficulty: Whether you’re wearing am armor made out of adamantium or literally shirtless, you die in one or two hits
Ikcatcher True, it's why I wouldn't even bother equipping armour, I would just use some cool looking pants.
Balthazar I literally quit playing the game after finding myself stuck in that solo refinery level on Realistic, when you spend twenty minutes in a single section trying to kill people and hiding when shot and then immediately dying when enemies just spawn around the corner and one shot you.
Ikcatcher I was too stubborn. I've played Lone Wolf terrorist hunt on realistic until I've beaten it on every level. Took a lot of sweating and figuring out the AI, but I did it.
Balthazar You have my respect, I don’t have the patience to do that, and this is coming from a guy who did Mile High Club Veteran
Ikcatcher I still didn't have the patience to unlock every single ACES level (I think I had all the weapons, maybe, but it was incredibly grindy). It was back when all I had was a PS3.
ah, the good old days, when you can unlock new items by playing the game rather then paying for RNG loot-boxes. I miss those days.
The good old days when Rainbow Six games were proper Rainbow Six games and not hero shooters.
I feel a bit better there are still people feel the same way in such chaos gaming industry.
man wtf happened to the video game industry!!?? what a complete shit show we have today
Pretty sure there are games that still do that.
The good old days when the game was shit not for having loot boxes, but because the game was actual garbage.
"Control your shots. Make each one count!"
"He's dead! We're fucked!"
I really love the enemy banter in this game :')
Also, playing Terrorist Hunt with my twin brother was always a great time!
Guy: **Dies**
Guy From Behind: “That guy owed me money!”
Guy From Behind Again: “Me too!”
"Would it help if I ran into the bullet?"

ENEMIES REMAINING: 1
Terrorist 1: Go check it out. Take someone with you.
Terrorist 2: Yes, sir!
did being twins helped in thinking alike without verbally communicating?🤔 just wondering
I LOVED the PVP for this game, the gameplay was tight as hell, customizing your guy was addictive as hell and there was so many great weapons.
Hell of a game.
I played it recently and i thought it wasn't great.
hell
Hell yeah in hell
i used to rock terrorist hunt 24-7 online in this super ghetto setup, my outfit was dark blue pants, a white tank top, and a balaclava. my load out was the glock 18, ak47, and silenced mac 11. was a super funny and fun set up and i actually did pretty well in it, the comments i got from other players about my outfit were a hilarious bonus
@@epicninja2378 its a last gen game. It was great at the time and for the veteran players it will always be great. Cant imagine someone who never played super mario 64 back in the day would think it was "great" if they played it now.
The Vegas fly-over difference IS night and day...
Ha! I get it!
That's the joke, congratulations.
It also shows how terrible Vegas 2 is visually versus the original.
@@marcoivancic1187 both visually look crap
Everything from your accent to the way you review new and old gems makes me love this channel so much GGG, keep up the awesome work.
GGG big drama show
"It takes the original formula and improves it across the board"
Sounds like another game with "Vegas" in the title
Ayyyyyy
Shots fired lmao
Wait, is he asking for a nuclear winter here
Nice
Fallout New Vegas? lol it fits really well
This is one of my favorite games of all time. Easily the best Rainbow Six game and one of Ubisoft’s best games
the Vegas sub-series was an extreme case of dumbing the series down, have you even played any of the first three games
Mygirlhatesmyheroin dumbing the series down? Then everything after must be a child's walk. Lol.
Mygirlhatesmyheroin there dumbed down but so much more fun than the previous installments
a game being fun does not necessarily translate well to it being a worthy installment in a series and the Vegas sub-series was a prime example of that, it introduced the series to an era of depriving long-standing franchises of their trademarks so as to casualize them and make them more approachable to newcomers - which I don't have an issue with, I understand such moves, but publishers don't think of making any sort of a compromise most of the time
and it should go without mentioning that the concept of "fun" is a rather vague and subjective one - I had fun drawing a plan for one of the missions (the one at an airport) in Raven Shield, while you might think of that as tedious and too much involvement in a video game
that they were unique is what made them stand out for me, whereas I felt the Vegas games were quite bland and lacking of any memorable peculiarities
Dick Chavez actually made his debut is the Jack Ryan novels I believe and worked with and was mentored by John Kelly, one of the best Tom Clancy characters ever written, and was one of the founding members of Rainbow Six.
49mozzer I wish they could've atleast included a nod to some of the characters from the book.

49mozzer Sorry about that one, been a bit over a year since I lasy read Rainbow Six and some of the last Jack Ryan books, foggy memory.

Nice. You should review the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter games now.
Play both the PC and Console versions, they're different games.
Shea Agnew Oh wow, you're right. I didn't know it was like the ps2 and OG Xbox versions. I'd love to see him review the Xbox/ps3 versions of the game.
These days, the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter PC titles (Developed by GRIN on their Diesel engine nowadays famous for it's use in the PAYDAY games) are pretty much no longer sold digitally (I think Ubisoft pulled them after the GameSpy shutdown), but they are available on disc and have one shockingly well-archived collection of community modifications, and I think I caught wind of a multiplayer revival project.

Where can i get those games now-a-days, i was amazed that they looked such good games, like scripted ARMA that works...
Bizargh
Really informative, thanks
I love Vegas 2 to death, I just don't like how some people use it as the standard Rainbow Six should be at. It's such a simplistic game compared to the older R6 games.
The older rainbow 6 games were more complicated? Dang, I've only played (scratch that I remember playing The first Rainbow Six game on the ps2)
Try playing Rainbow Six 3 Raven Shield on PC.
It'll kick your ass real hard.
Ace Wolfgang They were harder, even more unforgiving with the damage you can take before death, and had a very in depth mission planner.
Hemang Chauhan I've Raven Shield is the most difficult game in the series.
Rogue Spear is worse for me
i still play these games with my son and brother. they are awesome for couch co op
Best reviewer
Sheeeitt yeah!
I would even watch his videos when he would make make-up videos, just because I love the way he talks
I remember spending hours on this on my 360 when I was a kid. This still looks as I remember it being
i actually loved the simplicity of these graphics, they werent bogged down with overly detailed environments or lighting fx so everything felt sharp and clear
Brutal Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 when ?
Super Ragdoll Cheat, with an LMG and a shotgun. That's pretty much as close as Brutal Vegas 2 as you can get
This game was literally ahead of its time
Lol no
I was beast in 1. I got 2 and was like "get ready scrubs." Then i saw a dude sprint by me like "WAR DOES CHANGE!"
remove all armor and run/sprint sideways is much faster.
no armor was better than any.
the only bit some players would use is the left side arm guard.
The enemies really hate me . Everything time I play . I keeping hearing "AIM FOR THE HEAD" or "AIM FOR THEIR LEADER"
That long ass lone wolf mission will put hair on your chest. Shit was crazy, it almost makes you feel like Sam Fisher when you carefully stealth through it.
I still remember the days when I used to play Vegas 2 day and night, that and left 4 dead 2, shame siege is slowly turning into garbage instead of sticking to it's tactical/realistic roots.
Cold hands Siege is slowly becoming more and more futuristic and arcady. I bet in a couple of year the game will play just like a Call of Duty game
Mark Zuckerburg it’s not that bad
Cold hands Yeah Siege is still very fun but the more operators they add, the more ridiculous and cartoonish it becomes. I wish they'd just add a vanilla mode with the base operators and maps for OG players.

also me: Boys we back in the gamae!
Dude you always make great reviews with no bias. I love it. I always watch your videos even if I've never played the game.

You forgot to mention the broken Spas 12
Super-Spas!
FAMAS was broken OP through both games too
Drake Parker Aug was my favourite
Never played what was broken about it
Logan Ingerson thing was a sniper
Hey I got a suggestion for a review. Ever play the SOCOM Navy Seals trilogy for the PS2? Those Games were always a blast to play in my childhood.
Austin Cross multiplayer was amazing
gelul12 I never was able to play multiplayer on them but I always had fun replaying the missions looking for hidden objectives and trying new strategies.
yeh it was a great series :)
Aww old memories quick scoping with the d pad at the best snipers across the damn map. I was one of the last players on game before they shut ps2 servers down
I miss playing those games online. Socom and the Tony Hawk games were the only reason to use the PS2s online functionality.
You have talent sir, you review games like a pro. It's relaxing to watch your content.
Thanks!
Your videos have become my favorite to watch. Short but very entertaining reviews
Thanks!
I remember playing this with a buddy of mine. I’d always go for a realistic looking character with heavy armor and camo, while he’d always wear the brightest color he could pick and wear no armor aside from a vest, running around with an LMG and hollering like a monkey. Good times.

Vegas 2 might not have pre-planning or permadeath, but at least it doesn't have human sentry guns for enemies
This game was the Dark Souls of Ubisoft Games.
This game is old classic and fantastic to play. I miss these kind of games these days especially for single players.
Great video as always, I actually re-installed both of these last night because of your last video. Decided to finally see it through to the end.
Terrorist Hunt on Realistic in Kill House co-op are some of the best gaming moments in my time. Love the grind.
10 y/o me was f hyped about this game
Hey Gman from 3 years ago, my hope for games like Ready or Not is that they can fill that Vegas 2 type PVP. RS:V2 was an incredible game.

I have many memories playing Terrorist Hunt with friends and going through the campaign coop on Realistic. Good times. I will warn those playing on Realistic difficulty, the enemies do not miss and you die in two or three bullets at best. Here's a good tip, don't take cover behind cars. The enemies will shoot your feet and you will die.
There are at least two lines I remember the enemies saying in Terrorist Hunt:
1) "Would it help if I ran into your bullets!"
2) Oh shit! He's dead! We're fucked!"
The Vegas games are very good. I wish they still made Rainbow games like it.
This game came with my Xbox one and I loved it

thanks for this review :D
This game is pretty awesome, and makes for a great co-op experience on either the campaign or terrorist hunt modes. My first roommate and I both had this for our PCs and the male bonding was real.
Thoroughly enjoy your content Sonny Jim
I loved this series! Good ol days...
Was so ahead of its time! Needs a remaster if you ask me. I think it would have a big enough following!
i remember i used to play co-op in this game with my Dad on my xbox 360, some of my best gaming memories came from me playing co-op games with my dad
That's wassup that you have a dad that appreciate real gaming..also you must be young asf lol..

@@tearworld Then you missed out on the evolution of gaming..COD and Fortnite is mediocre compared to these classics. Hell i grew up on sonic for SEGA.
@@tearworld just think RB6 Seige graphics is A1 steaksauce..but the gameplay is mmwaahh..youll be done in a week.
@@tearworld then your young asf lol..i wish i was 18 again and could start over. Anything you wish to do (positive) do it, don't wait..Btw im 36.
Ah, so good to re watch this videos again...my favorite retro pc game reviewer
Great review man. Still Imo I think that the funniest chatter at videogames award must go to the legendary Company of Heroes. For example when you order your volksgrenadiers to stop (the first basic crappy inf unit) the leader will shout "halt, I said halt! I feel like at the teacher at the boot camp" or when you upragade them with mp-40s "volksgrenadiers, try not to shoot each other" and as a last final example when you order your grenadiers to retreat, they sometime will shout "Grenadiers, tactical withdraw to Hq"
Recently I replayed through the game, at one point I got bored took off all of my armor got ak and somehow beat a few terrorist hunt don’t know how but I did, and it was surprisingly fun.
This game is always one of my favourites
oh man. I spent hundreds of hours on this game. Such a good time it was. I never played vegas 1, but after playing this I never could. Ubisoft had a good handle on stealth games back in the day especially with splinter cell. So this game giving me options to either go stealth or full blown attack squad was really fun. This still exists to the day with all their ghost recon titles, rainbow six games never disappointed, and I say that because I've clocked nearly 2k hours on siege as well lol
This reminds me of Siege in all the best ways, remember playing this one as a kid with my best friend. Good memories!
Your reviews are comfy af to watch and listen to
Thanks!
Watching videos you've made on Vegas games makes me sad that Patriots was scrapped in favour of Sige.
I've only experienced the Vegas series by backwards compatability on Xbox One. Around the Christmas Siege came out I got the game, but it was a special edition loaded with two codes for Vegas one and two, and I honestly preferred them to Siege at the time. I loved the cover based shooting, and more of the tacticality. It's an amazing game, I can't wait to get my PC to play Vegas two on there, it seems much better than console.
Vegas 1 is my first ever FPS, my parents got it for me and my big brother when I was about 10 and I enjoyed every second!
My dad finished the game himself soon after:)
I'll never forget the frustration after getting the "to be continued" screen after completing the game
I still play Vegas 2 with my little brother. Still amazing
I remember this game. It was one of my favorite games...hm the old times.
I tried the texture-mapped face long ago, and I thought it was just my mullet messing around with the registering of my face...but it seems like I wasn't the only person having problems with it. Thanks for reaffirming that.
I actually started playing Vegas 2 about 3 days ago so the timing of this video amazes me.
I believe you neglected to mention the custom camo, unlocked at the highest few levels.
Being able to run around in a bright pink tank top and denim jeans was all part of the online scene.
This worked well in the online, as it was actually beneficial to wear proper camoflague for each map.
ign should give up their review business and give it to this talented, humorous Aussie guy
I still love going back and playing this game. When you get to the elite rank you can customize your own camo so you can litterally be rainbow police... good times
Ok so I've only seen like 5 of your videos now and I havent started watching this one yet but I'm about to. I found out about your channel through Civvie11 and I just want to say I love your channel already. I was watching you Killzone video and I thought to myself "I wonder if he's played Rainbow 6 Vegas", I search it up and boom here I am watching the man who hss apparently played every game in history and reviewed them
"I'm under fire ! "
" FIRE BACK ! "
Just re-downloaded this game in 2024 and I’m addicted to grinding the levelling system and trying different tactics in terrorist hunt
I STILL come back to this game sometimes, and I don't enjoy video games any where near as much as I used to growing up. Having played many other Tom Clancy games other than Splinter Cell Conviction (I think that was the title). Had some nice stealth gameplay but nowhere near as much replayability as Vegas 2.
Even that main menu music is nostalgic. Probably my favourite FPS game in terms of gameplay. Love the ability to command your own small team in single player. The thermal sights combined with tactical stealth felt like something straight out of the Predator movies that I was a huge fan of around the time I was getting into the game.
I was literally about to replay this as you uploaded it
Playing this again on the XBOX1X and it looks and plays brilliantly. One of the best games ever, challenging mentally and not just a shootfest.
gman sneaky guy with that night and day joke
Would love a remaster of the Vegas series!!
Cool little note. Ding is actually one of the original founding members of Rainbow. Second in command to John Clarke, played by Willem Dafoe in clear and present danger.
I would buy vegas 3 in a heartbeat if they ever made it. Definitely was room for improvement on the T-Hunt (the team style from Vegas), specifically the spawns, objectives, and civilians. Wish ubi would've added t-hunt to siege or made vegas 3 instead of division.
The multiplayer for this game is still populated on Xbox One. I've reached Elite 99. And I can tell you that's some serious grind. I'm proud of that.
nothing could ever beat the fun of terrorist hunt with a buddy. whether it was on the same tv with a console or PCs at a LAN center it's a blast. Definitely, need to re-pick this up thanks for the solid review.
Awesome review as always!
I felt really disappointed by the Terrorist Hunt mode in Vegas 2. I loved it in Raven Shield, but it seemed like no matter whether I used a suppressor or not, after I fired one shot every enemy in the level would converge on the nearest doorway for me to mow them down. I didn't get to see much past the open areas of the T Hunt levels as a result.
This game was legendary. Played a countless number of hours with friends on splitscreen.
"It's like night and day"
I see what you did there lol
oh man i remember this game when i was 13 and me and my buddies would play every night and then talk about it at school
Love your reviews,always well thought out and your honest opinion about the games that you play(and play most of and/or the whole game) they’re good fun and i always look for your review before i buy a game. Keep it up!
Also,you should review the xcom games.
I vaguely remember there being a level where it was set in some gaming convention that had Destiny posters everywhere.
Yes, then you played this classic
5:45 When you let Polygon journos guest star on your show.
I failed realistic terrorist hunt on theatre about 250 times lol. Villa was one of the best maps of any FPS to me.
This was my fave fps game in the ps3 era. Realistic difficulty is so challenging and it was so fullfilling to finish a mission or even their skirmish mode with ai. I love the concept of having a squad which you can control and strategize, unlike cod games which ai firefights seem scripted. The ai teammates and terrorists are both good and stupid. Man how come they dont make these kind of games anymore. Id pay to play a remastered version of vegas 1 and 2
This game was my childhood. I still love playing it on PC
What i don't like about this game and Ghost Recon future soldier is that terrorist hunt can get really cheap with the enemy spawnning, altho it can be more or less tweaked on PC.
