different from pc version but still fun
ok I cut my teeth with the PC Rainbow Six back in 1999. In the pc version, you have a lot of freedom to choose your team, where they will enter and exit, what they will do once there etc. Naturally this means a lot of pre-planning before you actually start the mission. The PS 2 version of things is definitely geared more towards action and less towards planning and stealth. That's not necessarily bad, but if you are a fan of the PC version of Rogue Spear or Raven Shield, please understand that this game is lot more like Soldier of Fortune - a very linear shooter with the emphasis on action. R6 vets will recognize a lot of the maps - most of them are modified versions of the maps found in Raven Shield.
Still I enjoyed this game. In this game you can do a few things which you can't do (or do easily) in the pc version. For example, using zulu go codes, you can leave your team while you go and do something else. This is especially fun if you want to set up an attack from more than one side of a room. Unfortunately, since the game is very linear and you don't have a map, you don't get to do this a whole lot, and usually you can tell when the map wants you to do it that way (two doors side by side). And since you don't plan stuff out in advance, you can simply back up and retreat if things go wrong. You character can take up to 4 shots in the game - the PC R6 is one shot, one kill unless the enemy is very far away.
It's fun to drop this in for some old school shooter action with realistic weapons and maps. Just don't expect the same experience as the PC version.
Splitscreen co-op feature not implemented
Rainbow Six 3 for the PS2 is quite a good looking game and plays generally quite well, with a decent interface and controls.
But I feel it has a significant problem. Let me make this clear: a friend and I purchased this game for the 2-player, splitscreen coop mode. Like Ghost Recon PS2, this mode is implemented extremely poorly. You can only play splitscreen on missions you have finished in campaign mode first. You cannot save after splitscreen missions. You can't progress beyond the first coop mission without running through more campaign missions.
Let's think about this. The game forces you to play through the game one player in order to play two player..at which point one of the players has to go through all the missions again in two player mode. To me, this is like forcing somebody to play through the game in order to get the sound working. Coop is an important feature that was mentioned over and over in advertising but does not really exist in a usable form.
Just wanted to blow off some steam and warn everyone: Do NOT buy this game for two player splitscren mode.
One hell of a game!
You know what? I love the first person shooter games and I am a big fan of the Bond games. For some reason I love the sound of a loading gun and this is the satisfaction I have been waiting for in a game. This is one of the best first person shooters......well.......one of the BEST GAMES I have played.
First of all I like the weapin choice. You can really customize what you are fighting with. You have a primary, secondary, high explosive and covert weapons to chose from. Some of those missions I will tell you...they were really hard. the best thing in the game was what you could do with your team-mates. You could tell them what to do and they were the ones who made the mission that much easier. There is a window that popps up when you want them to interact with the environment, like doors and so on. I have to give this game a 5 out of 5 because first of all the graphics are incredable, it is a challenge, it makes you think, and it is just another fine product of the Tom Clancy mind!!
