Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six (Mac)

Rating:
Summary: Fun but too long to do
Review: The game is good, but the strategy takes a long time to plan and in the end it's not really worth it, the graphics are really good, and the storyline is too, but the loading also takes quite a long time. Pretty good overall.

Summary: This game shoots, it sores.
Review: This game has set a new standard for stratagey/first person shooting (FPS) games. Notice I put strategey first. If you are the type of person who likes Quake, this game is not for you. But if you like Tombraider, Goldeneye and Mission: Impossible, then this game is for you. Before you can blast a couple of terrorists, you must plan the mission out. You need to choose 12 agents to take the job,what they where, what they take, where they go, groups, and a go and no-go code. The agents specialize in many things, such as recon, electronics, assault, and demolition. Leaders of groups should have high leadership, selfcontrol, and teamwork abbilities. This game is 80% planning and 20% execution. A lot of this game is very similar to Tom Clancey's book. If you can't make an under cover group, this is the closest you can get. One shot to the head kills you, real anti-terrorists helped make this game, and Tom Clancey helped make make this game too. Your group travels to 14 exotic locations including the Taj Mahal. I am one of those kids who think they should plan an attack out in Quake. So if you're that type of person, this game is for you.

Summary: An ironic experience
Review: What a game...great graphics, heart-pounding gameplay, excellent weapons, engrossing plot. It's really great! However, it has some problems. First of all, the other players are so stupid that I really need to be the only one DOING anything. I put all teams on hold and don't let them move unless I'm controlling them. I wish there were better team controls--it's unfortunate that you can only control the team leaders. In addition, this game crashes my computer SO MUCH. If they had tested the stinking PC port for about 10 hours they would have found some serious programming errors. What ever happened to SOLID programming! But I want to end this on a positive note, because I am addicted to it!
