Rainbow Six: Vegas demo [Update 1]
yeah, i played through the demo a few times this weekend, and I've got to say, it's the prettiest FPS I've played on the 360 in a while. the controls are tight, with a new cover/blind fire mechanic tied to the r trigger. it makes shooting around corners almost identical to how it worked in G.R.A.W., except that when you pull the R trigger, you go into a third person view, and when you release, it jumps back to a first person view. very nice. and the rope-rappel stuff is cool, but a little hard to get used to. and the new snake-cam functionality ( you can designate targets with 3 degrees of priority) is the bee's knees. all around, it seems like a solid entry that might just flush out that nasty-ass taste that Rainbow Six: Lockdown left in my mouth.....but don't take my word for it, check out the Dec issue of OXM for a demo, or jump onto the Xbox Live Marketplace ( in U.k.) for a demo. ( for some reason,it's not available in the U.S. probably OXM's exclusive access to the demo....yay for subscribers.....)
If you REALLY want to get your dirty little hands on the U.S. demo from the Marketplace, check out this site, with instructions......
