I just bought Rainbow Six a few days ago, even though I have only begun the training missions, It is the best game I have ever played. It's so realistic, that it is scary!!!!!

Two thumbs up for "Rainbow Six"!!!

One of my favorite games of all time! The other reviews said it all... The graphics and playability are first rate, and the emphasis on good planning, encourages brains more than brawn.

One thing not stressed enough in my opinion though, is the great multiplay to this excellent game. The fact that players don't respawn when killed encourages players to play toughtfully and work as a team with other players.

It's THE ONLY multiplayer game I have really ,really liked!

This is smashing

When I started reading the book I knew that I would have to get the game and that it wouldn't let me down. And it didn't. Great graphics. Cool weapons. Challeging missions. It had it all. The only bad part about it is there is only 17 missions.

Rainbow Six - worth every dime and a little more...

With its superb conflict scenarios and excellent graphics, Rainbow Six has truly gone where no game in this genre has gone before. By pushing the boundaries of realism, R6 is definitely the best buy on the market today. No more monsters from outerspace, power-ups and extra-lifes to be picked up on each level, nope - if you catch a bullet, you bite the dust and it may be sayonara for this team member for the rest of the campaign, so you better watch your six. The excellent collection of sound-fx, background sounds and graphical effects, plus the high detail level on various weapons and gear makes the feeling of combat intense and fierce. Never has the feeling of downing a bad guy been so good and liberating, knowing you survived yet again and in multi-player games not having to watch the fight from the sideline. The only reason this game is not rated 5 star supreme ruler of its class is because, this game like all others like it, could have used a little more finish, but all just cosmetically and nothing which makes the game less fun to play.

So check out Rainbow Six and "Tango Down"

The thinking man's Doom

The realism in this game is unbelievable! Though the single player campaign is awesome, this game shines in multiplayer. There is nothing like turning the corner, seeing the other guy, raising your sights to his head, pulling the trigger, and watching him fall (except maybe when you pull the trigger and nothing happens, which is when you curse and run away while reloading :-). This game is not for the youngsters, nor the squeamish, but for those of you who enjoy a tactical game that's fast paced, this is your thing.

Rainbow six is the bomb

Rainbow6 maybe has not the best graphic-engine of all times, but it's enough close to reality to permit yourself to be in the action. A lot details taken from real-life situation and reality in weapons tech-data makes this game a favourite of mine. No frenetic Doom-like action, but skillfully strategy planning is required.

Great game that any age group will like!!

RB6 is a great action game. It requires quick thinking, thoughtful planning, and quick reflexes. You are equipped with everything from door charges to flashbangs. This is the most realistic shooter game yet. Its excellent graphics, great animations and realism make this one of the best games out there. If you ever get bored with the single player, you can go onto the internet, and play agianst your friends. This is a great game that will be around for a long time. Good gift idea.

The tension in my shoulders didn't dissipate for 3 days

I had played the demo of this game in almost every conceivable strategic combination before getting the full release which I played to completion on the medium skill level over a long night. Most enjoyable, but the tension in my shoulders didn't dissipate for 3 days. This game caught me line and sinker in a way I haven't felt since Doom all those years ago. The quality of the real-world graphics is impressive and has enough attention to detail to keep the spell working (of course a juicy direct3d card is a must). The sound library is extensive, clear and to the layman, quite realistic. The musical score deserves a mention too for it's quality and no. of well appointed tracks. However, my longer term use of the game is limited only to pushing my team intact through the elite skill level every now and then, when my stress needs to be topped up.
