Rogue Spear Platinum Pack is the BEST game of its Type. The Strategy combined with the Intense Action woks Great on Solo Play and even better on Multiplayer. The game doesn't require a super computer to run it. If You Enjoyed playing the Original Rainbow Six, You will get a blast out of Rogue Spear and Urban Operations, and if you are new to the RAINBOW games, Rogue Spear has a great training mode that will teach you more than you need to know.

Best Game Ever

Best Game Ever, well, thats sort of an over statment, this game isn't the best game ever, but is close. I'm writing this review, on the day the game is released, but I will write a second after I get the game. First of all, from what I read, and saw, this game has awsome graphics, they are much improved over the first Rainbow Six games. Second there are new things you can do with your Rainbow operative, for example, you can crouch walk, and you can peek around corners before puting your whole body around, this is somthing you couldn't do in the first game. Also there are new weapons, and operatives, and there are many new motion captured move, so when you shoot a tango he dosn't just fall over dead, he falls like in a billion doller hollywood movie. Its really great. Thats just Rouge Spear, Urban Operations, is about the same, except for a few thing that are different. First is that you are not really fighting in hugh over poullated, you only do that in the first level, second there are only 5 new maps, then there are 5 maps from the origanl rainbow Six, but with the new Graphics, and there are new multiyplayer maps, also there are 3 new guns, and afew new operatives. So all in all, I'd say don't buy them each on there own, buy them in this pack. Also if you don't have any rainbow Six games, I would buy the Collectors Edition, if you have rainbow six, and or egale watch, then buy this pack, if you just have rouge spear, and nothing else then don't get this get the other games.

Great Game

I have been a fan of first person shooters for a long time and Rouge Spear is, in my opinion, by far the most entertaining and overall best one out today. BE WARNED: This is not like other shooter games where you can run around a level shooting at anything that moves. Some of the levels might have only a few bad guys but will still take hours for you to accomplish your goals. Basically I would recommend this game to anyone who likes shooter games but would like to have them a little (or actually a lot) more realistic. For example in this game you cant run around a corner and see a bad guys and shoot him as he shoots you and hope his health runs out first. One shoot and your dead. In fact if you run into a room full of terrorist not only you but your entire team will be wiped out. The only thing wrong with this game is the multiplayer doesn't have a respawn so if you die in the multiplayer mode you have to wait until everyone else is done. This can be a pain especially when you first start to play the game and more experienced people pick you off 30 seconds into the match. Basically if you want a challanging game with great graphics and a more realistic twist then Rouge Spear is for you but if you want to run around and destroy things in either a multiplayer formatt or the single player I would skip this game and check out Unreal Tourny or Half Life.

Must Buy

I have been playing computer games since computers were invented. This is my favorite game of all time. The realism is just amazing.

For the people who say the AI sucks, try it on elite. On normal and vetran, enemy AI is okay, but on eilte the terrorists are brilliant. They will flank you and try to come at you from both sides, so you have to be careful to always guard your back.

The bad guys are very good shots, but that keeps it interesting. It would be too easy if they weren't.

My suggestion is for people to look at the map in the planning stage, but only make a plan if multiple teams have to enter a single area from two locations at the same time (using a "go code"). Otherwise use the "U" key and have your team cover/snipe as required.

Have fun.

I tell you...this game is like no other even the guyz notice when a grenade is being tossed...it takes a first point view of how real SWAT men act. I recommend anyone under the age of 14 shouldnt play...its a bit confusing for the first part, for instance in the begining you have to make route on the map and it gets confusing. But it keeps you on your toes and if you look away cause your mom is calling you to take out the trash you be on the ground...I dont mean alive either. And it gets soo nerve racking cause there are sooo many guns to pick from .....i wish i could hav 'em all =).....have fun with the game (some mission are impossible) -

If I could have rated this 6 stars, I would have!!!

By the way,the engine for this game is used to train the U.S. Special Forces in real world tactical ops situations - no Joke!!!
This game kicks some serious butt and I can't wait to run home every night to play it over and over again. I can seriously see why this series of games is being used as a training tool for the U.S. military because the situations are so plausible, and the opponents so real, man I can almost smell the powder burns on my clothes at night. Love this game....

not for amateur

This product is exceptional. I think that if you haven't bought Rogue Spear and Urban Operations sperately, this is what you should buy. First of all, the price is only 30 dollars, when everything is purchased separately, the cost is over sixty. Secondly, this CD pack comes with many customizable missions, which can be changed to suit yor needs. Overall, this is a great buy and should not be passed up

ROGUE SPEAR! HAHAHA!

This game rocks!! The possibilities are endless with so much mods to be able to get. Cool new weopons like the steyr aug. Fun online play. Plus I like all the custom missions. This is a complicated game but sniping a terrorist while your teamates sneak in through the back is pretty cool. Once you get bored of the game (which will be a long while...) get some mods and it will be as interesting as it was when you first got. Good FPS.
