Featured reviews
The graphics, sound and dialog are great. the controls, once learned, are easily mastered and employed in the game. In the heat of battle you get some people who flip out, charge the bad guys, or just wimp out and run. so when shots are fired you never know whats going to happen. another good thing is that the tangos are always in different locations so you can't run through it after playing the level a few times.
the only quams i have is that the AI is too stupid sometimes. tangos can sneak up behind and if one team ember in the middle sees him but the others don't he will open fire regardless and mow down the whole team, and most of the time missing the bad guy. another thing is if you stop in tight quarters, like on stairs, and you gotta turn around. you have to kill about half of them before they budge. i think this was fixed in the sequals
all in all this is a great game and it deserves high ratings
I got Rainbow Six a couple of years ago for a cheap price.I didn't really like this game.Rainbow Six is a fairly overrated game in my opinion.Its hard.I had this game for years and I am still stuck on the second level.The first level was pretty fun and had a fair amount of action.The graphics were great for 1998.However this game I thought was pretty hard and overrated.If you see Rainbow Six for a very cheap price buy it but by cheap I mean under $9.99.I have not played the other Tom Clancy games.
7/10

- Quotes
Narrator: The year is 1999, the Cold War has been over for more then a decade and for the first time in half a century the world is free from the spectre of nuclear apocalypse. It should be a time of peace and prosperity but all over the globe the ambers of old anamosities have been fanned into flames by the winds freedom. Terrorism in the 21st century is an international industry. Money and expertise flow freely through the global computer nets and every type of weapon imaginable is available on the black markets of the third world. It has become harder and harder for individual security forces to combat this threat to the safety of their people. What's needed is an organization with the resources and the authority to combat terrorism wherever it flourishes. It would be composed of the best and the brightest counter-terrorism experts from every country and armed with state of the art weapons and equipment. It would operate in complete secrecy, its existance known only to the most senior government officials. It would attack swiftly and silently, cutting off the head of the viper before it had a chance to strike. Such an organization already exists. Its codename is RAINBOW.
- Alternate versionsIn the German version, all blood effects were removed and killed enemies disappear almost instantly. The Dreamcast version on the other hand is completely uncut.
