What we are looking at today may actually be the first Rainbow Six game that many people played!
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas (2006/2007) Xbox 360, PC, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3The best way to think of Rainbow Six Vegas is as a whole new ball game for the series as this in many ways is actually serving as a reboot of the series. Ubisoft had a clear vision for what they wanted Rainbow Six to be going forward.
As you would expect the story is set in Vegas one of the tourist hot spots of the world. The basics of the story are that Las Vegas is going to be hit with one of the worst terrorist attacks of all time and only Rainbow team can stop it. One of the interesting things about the story is that you experience the majority of it in game and not with lengthy cut scenes. It actually works very well and immerses you in the action.
Gameplay wise, Ubisoft really changed things up as Rainbow Six Vegas feels like no other Rainbow Six game. While you could still give orders to your teammates (which you did with the d pad) things like regenerating health, 3rd person cover shooter sections and the fact that missions had checkpoints gave the game a much more action packed feel than any other game in the series. One of the coolest things they added was using ropes to move up and down the building all the while shooting! Gameplay was nice and tight and for many was that perfect blend of being action packed while also offering tactical based gameplay.
Rainbow Six Vegas was a huge hit. It was very well received, people love the single player campaign and multiplayer was very popular as well. In all, it was a great reboot of the series and actually introduced many new players to the series as well.
What Next For Call Of Duty After World War 2?
While we have spent a lot of time playing the beta of Star Wars Battlefront 2. One of the main things that our modded PS4, Xbox One, and PC controllers are designed in mind with is, of course, Call Of Duty.
As we all know, Call Of Duty is at this point, weeks away and we are very excited for it. Many fans of the series were super stoked when Activision announced that they were going back to the series roots by setting the game during World War 2. Call Of Duty World War II is one of the most anticipated games in the series history, but where does Activision go from here?
The next Call Of Duty game for 2018 at this point will have been in the oven for at least a year, ready for the inevitable October/November release. But what could it be? Here at Mods “R” Us, we have asked around the office and one thing that is continuously brought up is the Vietnam War.
Some games have used the Vietnam War as their backdrop before, but we think a modern Call Of Duty set during this time period has the potential to be truly epic. We are not even talking about the multiplayer here! The storytelling in the Call Of Duty games the last decade has been incredible and setting a COD game during this time period could give it a Full Metal Jacket, Platoon, Apocalypse Now kind of vibe.
We have a comments section down below and we would love to hear what kind of setting you would like to see in the next Call Of Duty game.
