The only bad thing is that the adversarial is problematic. I can only join 10% of the rooms and even when I get in, it usually ends before the match starts. I figure there is a 5% chance of being able to get in a game and stay through a match. The coop works well, I actually want to progress through the story as compared to the previous RSV. Looks llike some of us will be stuck in story and terrorist hunt until the versus is updated

Lol, its good to know I'm not the only one. I joined two verses games, and both ended mid-game. The Co-Op works great though. I haven't had any problems with it. Terrorist hunt is hard to join, but nowhere near as terrible as verses.

JAKK, the graphics might have been nice back in the day when the 360 was new. But when a sequel does not have any upgraded graphics, no new music, no new voice acting, and hardly any new online features, it really doesn't seem like a sequel to me.

I want to buy this game so badly, but my terrible addiction to RSV was so hard to recover from that I'm unsure if it would be wise for me to pick up part 2. I'm trying so hard not to fall off the wagon......

I'm going to be honest.

This game is basically the first Rainbow Six Vegas.

Graphics are the same, they didn't improve on some of the action responses such as pressing X to rappel down, or pressing O to throw a grenade takes a full second before **** registers.

The graphics seemed dumbed down...but it may be because after playing COD4 too much...COD4 makes this game look like a PS2 game...I thought SOCOM 2 had better graphics at one point. Also, everything is so stiff and not smooth...

The servers are like wtf.

To conclude, you can call this an Rainbow Six Vegas expansion pack. Nothing new...the developers really took the smallest risks by staying the same...and honestly this hurt them.

The games good for any die hard Rainbow Six Fan....but honestly this game is just Rainbow Six one with new maps, weapons, and COD4 leveling up-esque. There's no real breakthrough kinda gameplay.

It's very bland. The end.

Well, in its defense, maybe it's best that it doesn't have any radical changes. Perhaps they should have just kept making maps and weapons available for download and not even bother coming out with a new game all together. I'd certainly pay for new maps and weapons, again and again.

Just so you know, I wasn't ignoring your invites to play the game yesterday, I just don't have it. (My COD4 problems also cleared up a bit)

I really do want this game now. When I saw it in the shop I just though "meh, same as the first one". But then I realised, the first one was one of the best shooters I have every played on and I just couldn't help but think about when I used to play it on my long lost 360.

The only problem I have is I wont get away with getting this and GTAIV, and GTA takes precedence over every other game until I get a job.

If I get this job at the game shop I have been applying to, even better!

I just got back from a friend's house, where he was playing this on the PS3. Man, you guys got shafted.

The graphics are only 720p and bland. And the lobby system? That's ridiculous.

People can gripe all they want about paying for XBL, and seeing ads on the dashboard, but when they unify and simplify online play like they do it's no contest.

I feel bad for everyone that can't have a choice between the two.

The graphics certainly seem better. I have the feeling most of you didn't bother to really look and assumed it's the same as the first RSV.

So I guess my question is: Is it worth buying?

I have 2 games Im gonna trade in and dont know what to trade them in for. I was thinkning about this but I have heard mixed reviews on not only this site but from people play COD4...

Im not bored with COD4 yet but still want to trade my joints in for something.

Im having a hard time getting used to the slow movement speed. If that was sped up like 400% then I would play it alot more. This game is considered more 'Strategic' mostly because of that slower speed and options to duck behind cover. Which Call of Duty doesn't have. 2 completely different games.

Not a bad game, but GamePro calling this the "Perfect Shooter" is an overstatement.

I'll remake the poll now since the game is out.
