Better than average game but unforgivable lack of save option! February 2, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Update June 2008: I re-played the entire game, after only intending to take a quick look at it, and enjoyed it so much I had to comment:
I think my previous review below was unfair. It is easily one of the best games I have played on the Xbox 360, clearly has HUGE replay value, and I put it up there with other game master pieces like the Splinter Cell series and the two Ghost Recon Advanced Warrior Xbox 360 games.

No save options, you just have to get to the next checkpoint. Some people may enjoy playing the same level over and over again. I don't, and there seems to be no cheats available on the net, so if you get fed up and stuck somewhere it's game over.
Setting the game in Las Vegas casinos may have seemed like a good idea but the visual overload of colour and light from the machines in many areas means it's almost impossible to see where the enemy is.
The hide behind object function is good - and all games will probably start to use this technique - but in Rainbow Six it is sometimes jerky and doesn't always work. Certainly nowhere near as well implemented as it was in Gears of War.
Weapons, special goggles, player animation are all excellent, and the controls to order squad are easy to use and works well.
Overall the game looks just okay, plays well and is often a lot of fun and it's well worth 15 - 20 but certainly no more.
