Rogue Spear a great sequel to Rainbow Six

This game has done something very few games have been able to do , it has become better than its original maker. Many game companies in a hurry to make a profit,don't put as much effort or creativity into their sequels of their games, but Red Storm Entertainment isn't one of them!!!!

Reasons why this is hands down better than the original and quite possibly the best game of the 90's: Challenging missions that combine not only action but strategy. Rainbow Six was the first game where you could actually plan out youre mission and execute it just like a top secret military team would in real life. The graphics and sound in Rogue Spear (if you can believe it) are better than the original:
Team members talk more during tense situations ("It's ok you're safe"), their movements are very lifelike, they can blink and breathe just like a real person. You see them enter a room carefully for any danger, then they follow their plan. Before you begin a level you are treated to a musical score to get you pumped up for the action!!! It is simply inspiring.

The levels are breathtaking, in the First level you go inside a Museum taking by Middle Eastern Terrorists, in the Second level you are on ship and must not only prevent a bomb from being detonated, but rescue the hostages in the ship!!

Replay Mode for every mission. This is my favorite part of the game where you can look at how well or bad you completed a mission. My only complaint of the original Rainbow Six is that after you completed a mission there wasn't anything more to look at. With the replay mode, you can watch youre completed mission over and over again. Get some popcorn ready. :-)

The challenge would give even the most experienced game player , hours and hours to try to beat even a single level. (Try playing on Elite/Veteran)

Oh yes and there is network support for it too over the net. Multiplayer options include saving youre team captain from the enemy, wiping out youre opponents team, and a whole bunch of stuff.

You will need a 3d accelerator card, like the Voodoo 3000, otherwise the game wont look 3d and the maps and characters wont look crisply textured.

Finally, there are several mission packs for Rogue Spear.
This is what 3d gaming is all about!!!
If you're looking for an action packed game with a challenge, you're search is over. Haha.

One Sweet Game

Tom Clancy's Rouge Spear is by far the funnest of all his games. Also the Urban Ops Mission pack that comes with it sometimes is great make sure that you play both. The multiplayer mode is awsome it allows you to communicate to your oponents or teammates online! A must play game. Great price!!!!!!!!!!!

Still Fun After 2 Years

I've had Rogue Spear for two years, and it's still my favorite game. I have the expansions Covert Ops, Urban Ops, and Black Thorn. All are fantastic, but none compare to the original Rogue Spear missions.
The multiplayer is never-ending fun, now that I've beat all normal missions on elite difficulty, and all the terrorist hunt and lone wolf missions on elite difficulty with only a pistol. It took me two years to accomplish that. The game will never get old because of unmatched AI, flawless gameplay and sound, and unprecedented graphics. Everyone must buy this game!

Best Game That Is Out There!

Rogue Spear is the most packed action PC game that I played yet. It takes you misson by misson, saving the hostages and killing the terrorists. I have to explain how awesome it is!

There are new places you get to travel around, at the airport, in buildings etc! See, its much better when you play online to tell you the truth. Meet new people and even play with your friends. Go one on one with each other or teams. Get to pick out your own weapons and gender and even vote which level to go to. This is pretty much like Socom on PS2.

Im a girl and I think its still cool even if im not a guy. This is NOT waste of your money.

WOAH.... Goodbye Delta Force!

Rogue Spear is a very cool game... It's gaming-style is similar to Delta Force but it has much more depth, interaction and is more exciting. First of all, theres the wide range of uniforms, weapons and characters to choose from. Also, after each successful mission, you get an awesome full sized screen shot that you can print out by pressing Print Screen on your keyboard and pasting it into any document. It's realistic, with enemies that duck, hide, surrender and much more. The missions are preceded by briefings that you can actually UNDERSTAND and profiles of the enemy organization. The environment is just like being there, with sandstorms in Oman and rain and thunder in Kosovo to name a few.... What can I say, the only thing that could possibly beat it is actually joining the army :).

Action in a realistic way

I still jump on my monitor when I'm shot. The variety of weapons, the reality of the game, the maps from all around the world turns Rogue Spear in to a habit. The only complain I have is the bad AI that causes problems sometimes, but most of the time they are my planning and coordination mistakes. Great game that all collectors should have.

Rogue Spear, a great game.

Rogue Spear is a harder game but is really fun too. It is much better that the first Rainbow w/ more guns, levels and gear. If you enjoy the regular Rainbow you will love this game. It seems to be based on a Navy SEAL and/or SWAT team game. Different people have different abblilities such as demolitions, recon, assault and sniper. Also they have traits such as stealth, sniper, assaulting etc. I hope this review helped you.

Hi-tech military action!

In this game you will act as anti-terrorist fighting crime around the world. There is a large arsennal of weapons and tools. You will get to chose your weapon, people and uniform for all 19 missions. I encourage you to buy this game if you are over 11. Have fun general.

This has to be the most amazing game I have ever played. The graphics have been greatly improved from Rainbow, and there is a much more realistic feel to it. The smallest details will blow you away. At times you feel like you're in Rogue Spear and you could be shot any second.

From the New York Museum of Art, to a 747, to an ancient Persian fortress, you will be completely immersed in the game. I personally could not stop playing it. Even after you beat the campaign, you still have the option of playing Lone Wolf, in which it is you vs. 30 "tangos", or Terrorist Hunt, where, somewhat like lone wolf, you face 30 terrorist, although this time you have your normal team of 8 operatives.

Everything in Rogue Spear is unpredictable. I can't tell you how many times I failed a mission because as I was approaching a hostage, he got up, yelled, "I can't take it anymore!", and ran off into the middle of a firefight. The terrorists are even better. They are much more real. They'll call out when they see you, use cover when guns start going off, and try to ambush you.

Ten new team members are also included in Rogue Spear including four from the novel. There is much more variety in the area of personel. Like last time, there are Assault, Demolitions, Electronics, and Recon specialists along with a new speciality... SNIPERS! These guys are so useful on missions!

Another new feature is the replay mode which allows you to watch either a failed or completed mission, see what you did right or wrong, save it, and send it to others over the net.

Overall, this is the greatest game I have ever played, and I recomend it to everyone. The WORLD is in danger again, and only YOU can save it.
