Personally had a little better experience with Vegas 1 than Vegas 2. Especially as the friendly AI was much more useful and got stucked on geometry only twice during whole campaign - much better than in Vegas 1. Still its far from perfect and if one wants to have the area properly cleared it is neccesarry to command them only few meters at a time. Enemy spawns were also much more sensible, with exception of dam level (I had to look up guide only to find that there is enemy spawn right behind teammate doing hacking}. Environment variety is probably slightly worse than in Vegas 2. Las Vegas is boring enough to set one game in it. Making two is just a quick cashgrab with recycled assets. Combined with 2000s muddy filter every city level looks the same. Level design is passable - there are few chokepoints where going in first is absolute deathtrap and one might as well reload if both friendlies got knocked out. Gunplay is good, sometimes cover is little broken but in most cases it all works fine. Minor gripe is completely unmanageable full auto - strong recoil combined with strong flash makes it applicable only on point blank - quite unrealistic as the protagonist should be skilled enough to handle them. Than again suppresive fire is not a thing here so there aren't much usecases for it anyway. Difficulty is generally quite balanced - even playable on an controller (tough gyro aiming is must). Story is there probably. Its evil terrorist doing evil things like having big bombs or hostages. It's there only as a set dressing and it shows. Overall I would recommend Vegas 1 over Vegas 2. There is just so much less bs, largely thanks to much more useful friendlies. It was an interesting experiment trying to bring R6 into a modern era. If you like "tactical shooters" give it a try.

-{Graphics}--- The old PS3 looking graphic. The Vegas looks stunning to me, i was in a jawdropping moment once i saw it. ---{Gameplay}--- The gameplay is tactical shooting, where u will be accompanied by two (2) allies. This game has the First-Person View and Third-Person View, which makes this game dynamic in terms of gunfight, What I love about this game is they have the THERMAL VISION, which for me looks surreal, although the night vision could gone better but thats the limit of UE3, COD2019 still has the best night vision due to modern tech. Wonder if we get another tom clancy vegas? Hmm. The enemy AI got hands i tell u, (im playing on realistic difficulty) if u played Far Cry 1 u will know. The rope climbing is dope, we can see that now in R6 Siege. Missions are okay. Giving orders to your ally is a great mechanics but no no if u want to stay stealth and hidden bcs they dont crouch. ---{Audio}--- Cant speak much for the audio especially for the gun SFX but i can tell u if u were fighting enemies there will be a soundtrack just for that. Consider it as an indicator if there still enemies around bcs the song will stop once all cleared. One bad thing about this there is no subtitles to toggle on. ---{Audience}--- Well its an old game, doesnt harm to say this is for all ages of audience. ---{PC Requirements}--- Even potato PC can run this ---{Difficulity}--- Not sure about normal but the realistic can hit like a truck, and the vision on blood loss can hinder u from seeing things ---{Grind}--- Nothing to grind, nothing to unlock. U prep ur equipments, do missions, and kill enemies. ---{Story}--- Not bad, ur standard backstabbing shooter game. Cant judge till proven ehh? ---{Game Time}--- Jeez im having hard time on this one. If u play on normal, u might get 2-4hours from this. Since this game doesnt savepoint often, if u fail a mission, u will start from ur last checkpoints (I dont know how to put this). ---{Price}--- Dirt cheap, get it either full price or discounted ---{Bugs}--- There is a bug where i encountered during the mission to extract data on the enemy data hub, u cant progress at all. So u need to restart the level ---{Verdict}--- A good tactical game with a good gameplay. I had my sweet and bitter moments with this game but overall its alright. Will pick Vegas 2 one day

This game is really fun, for the time, this is the best Tactical game, sadly there's some performance drops that happens after loading 3 maps (probably because i'm using Proton) some AI NPCs are broken and the weapon recoil is awful, i mean the game is supposed to be realistic but the recoil is bad, they could improve that. the maps later on gets a insane difficult with "protect missions", there's too many enemies to just defend one NPC and it gets crazy during the Theater mission. i recommend it, it is a great game and it deserves more love, this is the Ubisoft i know with the old games, sadly the new Ubislop doesn't care about quality anymore, they could bring the good games back instead like Splinter cell.

This game learned from Lockdown and abandoned all pretense at being some kind of slow, serious military sim. And it’s all better for it. It’s a slick, vaguely tactical action-movie game now, and I’m mostly had a blast playing it. When the levels are good, when they are those open-ended arenas with multiple entry points and floors - killing terrorist by the hundreds feels amazing. And quite challenging too, I just sleepwalked through Lockdown and this game forced me to wake up and pay attention. It’s still alright even when it is straight-up just corridors. The problems start with those defend the hacker, you just alerted the horde sections, Those nosedive the game into being the lamest, most irritating game of Whack-a-mole in existence. Thank god there is not so many of them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McNM-7V8jhQ&ab_channel=Silent_fog Oh, and checkpoints are just psychotic. Get ready to repeat ten minutes of nothing before arriving at the actually challenging part over and over and over again. And they are placed BEFORE every dialogue ever, so I hope you are into listening the same thing 20 times. And the ending is straight up is not there, so you better buy Vegas 2
