I've decided I'll write game reviews from time to time on my blog. I'll post them here whenever I write one for people who might be interested.

I'm not a professional reviewer, you won't get pictures or videos or long text, but you will get a no-bullshit look from a guy who likes games like that.

Although this is probably true, it is not an excuse for the problems Yoshi stated.

I already played t-hunt and some of the multiplayer modes. They're fine (and still suffer from glitches in first game), but as I said, you're better off saving your money and getting the first one. It's almost the same.

I didn't like the theme of Las Vegas anyway, I don't know why some people are attracted to it. I stopped playing TC games back with Ghost Recon 2 and it looks like I made a good decision. :P

Just here for the pie

I've never played a Tom Clancy Game and I don't plan to thanks to this review, which is a compliment. It always seems like the sequel is either not as 3PIC as the first or pretty much just the first with enhanced graphics and like, one extra feature.

Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six were great series, they're worth checking out.

You forgot Splinter Cell (however it is insanely easy unless you challenge yourself and set goals (ex: beat mission without killing anything)).

I'm Downloading Chaos Theory on my 360. I love the spy VS Mercenary online play.

On Topic:

Yeah, Vegas 2 sucks. I bought it thinking the online was going to be just as fun as Vegas 1 was. I played it for about a week and haven't picked it up since.

It's a campfest anyway.

I don't like full blown stealth games either, all I really want is a light stealth mechanic. Some situations you can decide to go out blazing a shotgun, othertimes you should have the choice to put a silencer on your weapon and not be heard from every bad guy 3 miles away. It makes a game more dynamic, especially since its supposed to be a tactical shooter.

Agreed, except that I still like Splinter Cell.

Honestly though, if you are looking for a good tactical shooter, you absolutely NEED Call Of Duty 4

You worded it better than I ever could. This is a reason why I love playing the MGS series.

I'm sorry all you CoD 4 Lovers.

But...

Vegas 2 > CoD 4

(Mainly because I despise CoD 4. And I think Vegas 2 sucks.)

COD4 actually tries to be a bit different, Vegas 2 does not.

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

NudeRaider -- Symmetry
Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
