I was wondering about the same thing...I traded in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 a while back. But in retrospect, its gameplay is different enough from other shooters to make it worthy of a spot in my collection though. IF the online is still going strong, why not come back?

You can still easily find a game ( im guessing your talking about number 2 right?) and its improved dramatically since launch ( no lag problems from my personal experience ) its a great tactical shooter that is unique and worthy of owning. It also has awesome co-op that never bores me

There's plenty of people online, and the ranking system is addictive(if not annoying at the same time). As long as you get a host with a good connection then there will rarely be lag. It's different enough from other shooters to be worth the buy, especially with the price it's at.

I enjoyed RSV a good bit and got almost all the awards (just needed maybe 2 or 3 awards to haveall of them).

If you are talking about rainbow six vegas 1 then i would say that is a complete waste of your time and money. DO NOT buy this game, visuals suck, story sucks, and the game is not that great.

the first had a much better singe playerexperiencethan the second, but the second lets you level up your character in single player and has much better multiplayer, with a big community. Also, make sure to use third person mode, I found this out after I bought it for a second time, gave the game a great feel.

You can find the code on google.

Out of ALL the people that own this game, there's gotta be a bunch who still play it online.

I love the MW franchise "BUT" it's "NOT" a tactical shooter. RB6V2 is still worth a purchase and there are loads of people playing it online as we speak!!!!

Loads my friend...loads!!! The terrorist hunts is what seperates RB6V2 from other shooters, I never have a problem finding a match.

Rainbow is a different animal. It's got such a different style of gameplay that people do go to those other games, but in a few weeks they come back. Besides, RSV2 survived the COD4 launch and is still going strong.

I would suggest you purchase it regardless. The campaign is fun and Terrorist Hunt is a blast/challenge.
