Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six

"You have got to be kidding, a mediocre shooting First Person Shooter, read on!"

If any of you like this game, then-Warning, don't read this!

Graphics: 7/10
The graphics are pretty good. But the thing is, all the enemies have an encounter with ''Slowdown Syndrome'', meaning, you guessed it- they slow down, well just a little. Plus, all the characters look like simple sprites. And just a bit too colorful. Otherwise, it's good.

Sound: 10/10
The sound would probably have to be the best part out of all the game. The voice-overs are just superb, and the gunshots are excellent. Along the great reloading sounds, this part of the game is absolutely awesome.

Control: 8/10
The control is pretty good. Problems- you need a Dual Shock, since this game requires both controls(in basically the same way as most FPS games today.), and to just open the doors, you have press in the R3 button. Sometimes, depending on the side of the door you're on, you either have to stay there, or back up. Otherwise, good control.

Setup Value: 10/10
The setup option is excellent, all you do is simply choose your team, choose weapons for them all, choose what kind of suit each of them will wear, then finally choose where all three go. One could go on the roof, on at the front door, and the last can go at the door of the second story. The best part about choosing the weapons, is they give you stats, like how much noise each makes, how much accuracy they have, even how much recoil they have.

Music: 2/10
The major(only) problem is basically, not only is the music bad at Orchestra, but there's not enough in it.

Replay Value: 3/10
It's not good to have a game that practically has you having your 1st 2 out of 3 characters die, but it's also bad that when you get rid of all the Terrorists in the 1st level, you still can't find rescue the Ambassador!Just put me out of my misery by flashing the Flash bang, then shoot me with the any of the weapons, use any secondary mags, if you want to deplete them all.

Rent/Buy: Rent
If you're serious about playing this game, then try to find somewhere where they only give at least 2-3 days at once.

Fun Value: ?/10
About the only fun thing I found to do was shoot and kill all the ALMOST all the way smart Terrorists. I can't even think of any rating to give this disgusting First Person Shooter.When I played this, I knew this was my greatest chance to hate PlayStation games for as long as I live.
