  1. Rainbow Six Vegas is a fine portable shooter.
  2. I totally enjoyed the new characters, new parallel storyline, new locations, and exciting gameplay. Sure it was too easy at times, but there were also some areas where things got downright nasty, but in the end, Vegas on the PSP is a great addition to the Rainbow franchise.

    What you are getting is a grave magnitude of repeating hallways, a dull story with often dull witted opponents, mucked up controls, and a game missing many key abilities from the 360 or PS3 editions.

    this game blew me away when first got it i think it is one of the best games for the psp systems the only thing i wish is that you had is that you would get to have the extra two people that you where supposed to find in the mission so you could have to back you up and have there mouth move when they talk other wise it is an awsome game i am always online trying to find players but i never can because no one plays this game anymore but is an awsome first person shooter i highly recomend this game go online Expand

    A great game overall. The graphics are good but not spectacular. One thing this game is missing is more online players.(Only 4 players) I would recommend this game. Expand

    Terrible. This was the first FPS I played on the psp and I was worried. Bland environments, sluggish control, and a not very interesting story had me worried this was maybe the best the little psp could do. Then I picked up the first Syphon Filter game, Dark Mirror, and it blew me away. Especially in comparison. Give thisRainbow 6 a pass. There's better stuff out there by far. Expand
