Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas

This Games Crackin'

This is a great game and probably my favorite among the Clancy series. Not really a run and gun type of a game, your forced to utilize the wall cover feature which is a nice change from other FPS's. It has great graphics and the AI is also fairly intellegent. I would strongly recommend this to any FPS fan. Can't wait for the sequel.

Guns, Lots of Guns.

If your a close range kinda player;
The XMS shotgun is the best. Good range, better stopping power. Attach a lasersight for better accuracy. A six round clip and single or semi-auto firing modes are key.

Medium to long range more to your liking?
I can recommend no other than the MP5N. Single, Auto, and 3 round burst modes for any occasion. Great range and stopping power. Extremely accurate and versatile. Good for any situation. If you lean towards close or medium range, the reflex scope is the best. Long range? definitely the rifle scope.

If your a long range sniper there are two ways to go. The M40A1 can be fitted with a 6x, 12x scope like everything, and provides the best stopping power. However, it's single shot, so if you miss you've got to wait to load another shot. Unless your a crack shot, i suggest the PSG-1. Lacking ever so slightly in power, it's semi auto, which can help if your accuracy has gone down.

Watch out, grenades take a second to pull out before you can throw them, and a lot of the time they'll bounce back from whatever your hiding behind. Unless you've got a clear shot, back up a bit after you chuck your grenade, that is, unless its a flashbang or tear gas.

The Glock 18 isn't as powerful as most of the pistols, but it is fully automatic, so keep that in mind if your doing a lot of blindfire.

I didn't know this for a while so i thought I'd put it up. Remember to click on the left stick to turn upside down while rappelling, to take out anyone in the vicinity of the window without exposing too much of yourself.

If your doing multiplayer terrorist hunt, watch out. The game doesn't put all of the enemies in the map at the beginning. So, as you progress to different areas it spawns enemies around there. Watch out, and be ready to fire fast, the may spawn ever right in front of you, ready to fire.
