Rainbow Six: Vegas... Truthfully

Well I actually told you about after u said it's Sucks? Really? (in the Whatwas your First Game fourm). This is what I said:

It doesn't SUCK. It's Mediocore. It's not the best but not the worst. I mean the box is very misleading. (the graphics look amazing on the box. like the best graphics on the psp and it looks kinda like the console game). But while the graphics aren't as good and they could have changed up the game play abit. It's still a fairly enjoyable experience. After you beat the 7 or 8 level Story u have Terrorist hunt. Thats its. But hey u could get it for $20 or less and if ur done with it within a week u can return if it's used. (Gamestop policy).DarkMaster7991

Basically it's mixed. To be honest u really have to look past the bad parts ot somewhat enjoy it. You could get better FPS's. Like Medal of Honnor Heroes, hell maybe just maybe Coded Arms. But I mean u could do the used game thing.

I haven't played it on the psp, but I have played both Rainbow six vegas 1 and 2 on my friends xbox 360. We both found the first one to be a big dissapointment and the 2nd one was even worse. So in my opinion there are a ton of games I would reccomend before this.

Try some of these

-both GTA games

-Splinter cell

-rachet and clank

-resistence

hope I helped :)

Rainbow Six Vegas for the PSP is AWESOME! As I stated in my blog, it's very fun, and I think that you should ignore the mediocre reviews. If you want a second opinion, you could ask JesusFreak1990. He has the game, and I'm pretty sure that he likes it, as well. :D

the game kinda disappoints it has bad online and an ok but short story andterrible replay value

It's not an FPS, it's a third-person game... so there's your first mistake. The second mistake is to listen to anyone in an all-or-none fashion... rent the dang game from GameFly, or whatever, but the real story is if you like it or not... NOT if some toolbag who's trying to pay the bills by writing game reviews while he/she tries their hand at the Great American novel or some punk online with way too much time on his/her hands (including ME).

Personally, I hate third-person games... i hated "SOCOM" on the PSP, I don't like "Resistance" though I respect what they accomplished, it's just not the FPS feel...

Get off your duff and make up your own **** mind.

I really liked it. It was pretty tight. Like others have said before me... It's not the best and not the worst. Hope that helps :D

Dude it's like you don't either... you've been what we call "Post Whoring" for weeks... I see your name. Why are you attacking me for telling the poster my opinion? THAT'S WHAT THE FORUMS ARE FOR. So you back off, and stop reading things into what I say or trying to color the WAY I say them, OK, sport?

The point I'm trying to make here is that as you can see there is a wide bit of polarization to the reviews and so you're never going to find a true consensus - you're gonna have to get a little dirty on this one and shell out some cash if you ever want the TRUTH... read a few reviews, some gamer's thoughts, and then play the game yourself to make the final impressions... but don't let yourself be blindly led around by anyone (and again, ME INCLUDED), when it comes to formulating your own opinions and your own tastes. I've played plenty of games which I personally would have rated much higher than I ever saw in published (paid writer) or gamer-opinions... I'm sure that there are a few games on your shelf that weren't rated very highly but you liked them a lot.

As far as understanding the nature of these forums... well, they might have started with the most noble of intensions, and they may still be governed by those who think they are in control of the editorial content of these pages... but in reality they are being used. Ask anyone at any gamestore, and off the record they will tell you it's true...

If you listen to the rah-rah or the nay-nay on this forum, you'll never find what works for you. Most of the forum blah-blah these days is a put-on; People who are paid to sit and talk about "Game X" on a given popular forum to generate buzz about a title (and I must admit that it worled in my case, I went out and got "Monster Hunter" because I had seen so much back-and-forth about it this last week or two I had to make my own critical run at it - there, mission accomplished). You'll notice that a certain title will all of a sudden get several topics posted about it, so-as to keep the game's title fresh in the prospective buyer's mind, John Cussack does it with a record in "High Fidelity" where he puts on the record and instantly sells two copies... this is a place where they know they can begin to petition their product months and even years before they sink into it, gaging the market and gamer's wildly fluctuating tastes when it comes to "what's hot". This isn't paranoia, it's the truth. These sites and their forums are being used to market things to you, take survey information from you (either with or without your direct knowledge - and not in some weird hacker way, but just by asking an innocent question), in order to streamline the advertising and find out what the pulse is... knowledge is power, and knowing what the gamer wants is key.

So I don't know what these forums are about? Yeah. I might suggest the same to you.

Open your eyes, OMG-It's-EVO... stop being manipulated. Become a gamer with your own thoughts, and your own opinions... why don't you tell us just once what makes you happy or sad about any given game, instead of thinking of inane questions to regurgitate onto this site? EXPRESS YO' SELF!:D

Take it easy, man. Peas.

Nice try, EvO, but you know I'm right. Sorry for not communicating in monosyllabic grunts for you... and try not to read tone into people's typing. You're the one who turned it into an attack, it was nothing of the sort. You need to calm down, I even ended my post by wishing you well.

You are quite welcome Evo and im on your side here, he blew itby saying it was 3rd person, thus proving he had never actually played it before.

Hey Ston3henge, we have our own opinions, thats why we are stating them here, we arent writing out full length reviews, we are just saying whether we like it or not, simply saying that the gamespot review did it no justice and we are convincing people not to be swayed from buying it just because of the low review. So relax and leave us to our forum. If you wanna insult people cos they wanna talk about a game, post your own forum, well see how long it lasts.
