This game is one of the most challenging games, if not the most challenging game I have ever played.

As indicated above, this game is pretty hard. The biggest reason for this is because your health bar goes down and it doesn't regenerate and you can't pick up health packs and another reason which isn't as big, is that you can't pick up ammo or different guns so you may run out of ammo for your primary gun and have to use your weak secondary weapon. In story mode you will play 5 missions. In each mission you will have multiple sections to complete. The controls in this game feel weird and take some getting use to. In Rainbow Six Vegas you switch in and out between 2 people, Brian and Shawn, to help each other get through the missions. Brian is the one with the automatic guns (not optional) and Shawn is the one with the snipers which is another major reason why this game is so hard, because if you are in close combat while you are Shawn, you will have to either use your weak secondary weapon or pop out with your sniper when they turn around which is very risky and if your enemies find out you are there before you kill them, then it will become even more difficult to kill them. You will have some missions with both Shawn and Brian where you will have to protect one another by killing people shooting at which ever person you are protecting. This game relies a lot on stealth and timing. The timing and stealth was addressed previously but another part to the stealth part of the game is that you will be given something called a snake cam which allows you to look under doors and around walls and with that you can see where your enemies are and you can also tag your enemies which puts an icon above the enemies that you can see through walls which gives you the ability to know where your enemy is at all times. Throughout the game, your main mission, although you have other missions that lead up to the end result, is to arrest a guy named Picares and the end result may differ from an arrest. The story mode took me about 6 hours to complete. After each section that you beat you unlock another area for you to play in Terro Hunt where you, well, hunt terrorists. After you beat the story mode you can play online. Overall, Rainbow Six Vegas is a very challenging stealth and timing game that should interest stealth and timing gamers and can be enjoyed by them.
