![]() ![]() Like Rainbow Six 3, this is a very console-friendly tactical shooter. It’s still missing a few features of the Xbox version, but there’s a feeling that this time around, Ubisoft have tried hard to make every system feel special. If you wanted a tactical shooter, Ghost Recon and SOCOM seemed better bets by far.įor the most part, Rainbow Six: Lockdown doesn’t suffer the same fate. Look at any review of Rainbow Six 3 going, and most will include something on the lines of “Get the Xbox version if you can.” The initial PC Version was still full of the tedious route-planning stuff that used to put off the adrenalin-fiend contingent, and the Gamecube version suffered from a lack of online play, but most people were convinced that the PS2 incarnation didn’t measure up – it just didn’t have the same level of polish. In the past, Rainbow Six could leave PS2 gamers feeling like this for good reason. You might be in the majority, but you could be left feeling like you have missed out. But you do so knowing that you’re nearly always getting the worst looking version going, the one with the dingy, low-res graphics the patience-stretching load times the imprecise analogue controls the one without the flashy online features. True, you get just about every third-party game going, and a few in advance of other consoles. Sure, you get your share of great exclusives – a God of War, a Gran Turismo. There are times when owning just a PS2 would make you feel like a second-class citizen. ![]()
