Summary: Command Team Rainbow in their toughest mission yet. When one of your own is taken hostage, do you follow orders or do you break them in order to save the life of one of your own men? The next Rainbow Six title features a thrilling single-player campaign that has you playing as either the confident team leader, Ding Chavez, who never leaves a man behind, or as the team's arrogant sniper, Dieter Weber, who never misses a shot. The final result: a totally immersive experience - which becomes even more compelling when gamers go online to play against other fans from around the world, using voice chat to communicate with one another. New weapons and equipment: Complete your mission with all of the tools of the trade including new items like motion trackers, battering rams, and the deadly MTAR-21 micro assault rifle. Stunning graphics and ultra-realistic "ragdoll" physics deliver staggering realism and spectacular close quarter firefights. [Ubisoft]… Expand

Worthy of the R6 series, solid single-player and multiplayer, good visuals and sound.

While there are some seriously entertaining mission scenarios, the single-player campaign is marred by poor enemy and teammate AI as well as some straightforward levels that have you zipping through them way too quickly.

But the sad fact remains, the intense experience we craved is just...gone. [May 2006, p.54]

Just for the record, this game is way better than what people are saying about it on forums like IGN and GAMEFAQS. These kids seem to want more of the same. Well I'll tell you this much: Lockdown is bold, and doesn't conform to the industry standards in blood guts and distaste. It's strategy, intelligence, and fun. Check it out. It's well worth the buy.… Expand

This game isn't completed. The AI is absolutely pathetic (Enemy's looking at walls, standing motionless, etc.). Character animations are terribly choppy. The game just doesn't "feel" as tight as the previous Rainbox Six games. Extremely linear levels. Big letdown for me: worst R6 title so far. But on the plus side, the graphics are beautiful; pretty environments and the characters dont look bad either. Potentially fun for LANing, but don't expect much from this title.… Expand

Player could lean left/right, crouch but no prone. The graphic is almost like the other game Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter, but not better than. The weapon selection menu is very similar to the G.R.A.W. You could mount a scope to some assault rifles so to snipe some enemies dead. It's rather hard if it's the first time you go through a location, but if you could remember where all the "jack in the box" are, then it's very easy to get past this game on the second replay. (1/4 alike elements) SWAT 4 was released in April, 2005. (1/7 alike elements) F.E.A.R. was released in October, 2005. (2/5 alike elements) Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter was released in May, 2006. (1/5 alike elements) Rainbow Six Vegas was released in December, 2006. (10/10 alike elements) Gamespot was released in 2006.… Expand
