This is game is great. It has great missions it has a high frame rate and is very suspense full. The missions take place all over the world and its much more relistic then other shooting games. the only set back in this game is the bloodyness, which can be turned off. This is a great buy and is well worth the pennies. It never gets old.

FYI

This is the version from the PC game and not from the Nintendo 64 version. For example, when you plan your mission it's a little bit more complicated from the N64 version. You have to go through each step of the planning phase insatead of diving right into the mission. Overall it's a pretty good game.

awesome

I have played many different video games in my time and i'd have to say the N64 version of Rainbow Six is THE most enjoyable game I have ever played. Period. I can't wait for the dreamcast version to come out.

A must-buy!

This is the most realistic fighting game I have ever played, bar none. If you even remotely enjoyed GoldenEye for the N64, you MUST buy this game. The graphics, evironment, enemy and ally AI, and storyline are top-of-the-line. This game is also worth every dollar when it comes to replay value. With the planning phase, you can create seemingly endless ideas and strategies for accomplishing different missions. I NEVER EVER get tired of Rainbow 6 titles. If violence is an issue for you, don't worry--the blood can be turned off. So stop reading this and go buy, buy, BUY this game!

This game is the best when playing with the right people

Rainbow Six was the funnest games I've played on-line. I rated it a 4 because if you get into a multi-player game with somebody that has slow modem, their character will jerk around and make it hard to get a bead on them. Other than that, it is THE BEST GAME on the market. Find the right game room to play in, and you'll have the greatest time you've ever had.

Since Rainbow Six won't be multi-player you shouldn't even worry about framerates in online games. The game is fun alone because when in your life do you get to command a S.W.A.T. team on covert missions. The graphics are AWESOME and realistic. When you shoot an enemy in the leg he hobbles around and screams but doesn't die. If you liked Goldeneye on 64, you will love this game because you're not alone on those missions. The computer controlled teammates actually help and could probably finish the mission without you, but why would do that when you have all those cool guns and explosives to use on the bad guys. If you like tactical games or shooters, I promise you won't be dissapointed!

It's Finally here!

Well I know most won't believe it but Rainbow 6 for Dreamcast is actually on the store shelves! I bought it about 20 minutes ago and so far it's pretty good but I haven't gotten too far into the game.

Rainbow Sucks....I mean Rainbow Six

First off I'm disappointed that I had to wait 8 months to find out that this game wasn't really worth the wait. Secondly, I have read all of these other reviews that say that the graphics and gameplay are outstanding. Let me be the first to say that game absoultley, positively, does take advantage of the Dreamcast capabilities at all. When I first played the game it looked like the PC version. For me personally, this game would have kicked ... if it were to look like MDK2 or Rayman 2. When I buy games for the Dreamcast (the most powerful game counsole on the market) I expect to be blown away by the graphics, sound,...etc. The characters in R6 have too many rough edges, and the environment that your team is immersed in is OK but could be a lot better. I really have mixed feelings about this game. While there are some cool aspects of the game there are downsides that overshadow the high points in the game. Furthermore, when I found out that the game was only 1 player I was yet again dissapointed, only because the articles that I had read in the past said you could play up to 4 players. Overall, I am disappointed with the game, but I am sure that others will be able to overlook my complaints that I have mentioned.

Best game out right now for Dreamcast

Finally this game has been released. I had not played Rainbow Six for any other platform but had heard it was an awesome game and even better than GoldenEye for N64. So I rented it for 64 and loved every bit of it. I can say the same for the Dreamcast version, with the graphics being the main difference between the two. I just finished the game and next to Metal Gear Solid for Playstation it is the best game I've ever played. The environments that you're put in are realistic where there isn't 30 terrorists in one small spot. Don't get me wrong there are plenty of enemies but they are much smarter and more dangerous because you might be peeking around a corner like on other games and all of the sudden you hear a shot and you're dead because one shot can kill. That sort of realism is what makes Rainbow Six such a great game. The planning phase can be fun too because you must strategize and tell you're guys where to go and give go-codes and give the teams assignments. Overall, this is easily the best and most fun Dreamcast game out right now. I definitely recommend it.
