Sad But True

I'm beyond a lover of video games. I'm an addict.

Gears of War was terrible online. Halo 3 is for 11-year-olds. GTA 4 is vast but ultimately too wide and baron to sustain a dedicated community.

Enter "Rainbow Six: Vegas 2."



I've been playing the Rainbow Six series since the N64 and it never disappoints. Deep, complex gameplay. An ever increasing list of strategies. Amazing online options. Outstanding game mechanics that feel weighty and visceral.

Rainbow Six takes all the great aspects of Counter Strike, Halo, Call of Duty, and Golden Eye, and combines them into one package.

I have to admit, I was hesitant about the latest addition but, like all of the previous games in the series, Vegas 2 won me over. The run button was a little strange... The map packs were too big... The new weapons sucked... To various extents, all of those gripes are still true, but in the right situation, all of the game's downsides turn to pluses.

Come get some, suckas.

And for the record, CoD4 sucks my butt. I was on the beta -- It sucked then and it sucks now.
