Best Rainbow Six 3 - Gamecube Deals

Customer Ratings:

Rainbow Six 3 is simply one of the best games out there for the Gamecube extremely fun AND re-playable, Six 3 has amazing gameplay, controls and a realism that will make you want to keep playing hours on end.

GRAPHICS phenomenal; not "blocky" in the slightest sense, and crafted with a loving attention to detail. Every scenario is smooth and refreshingly unique as a result (making gameplay so much better!!) thus giving the game an excellent sense of realism. You feel like you're actually there and not sitting in front of the TV playing a game try the Alcatraz or Penthouse levels to see what I mean!!

MISSIONS and GAMEPLAY Highly re-playable; I've completed it on various difficulty settings and am still taken by surprise at how fresh all the levels seem. This is because Six 3 has a very good variety of scenarios (you fight in different geographical locations such as Venezuela, Saudia Arabia or San Fransisco) AND a consistent storyline. You are the leader of a squad and it's therefore in your best interest to keep you men alive and they're great at covering you in a tight situation. The command orders are not hard to use and the "zulu function" whereby you can make a team wait before breaching/entering a room is ingenious, and therefore your Rainbow team members become assets, not people who get in the way of combat.

MUSIC AND SOUNDPerfect. I used to study film score composition and this is an excellent piece of writing for the game; it comes on in crucial moments and can really make chills go up your spine. All the right gun sounds have been used, the explosions are fun and the sound of the enemy is crucial in detecting them. Again, excellent realism.

GUNS + EQUIPMENT You have an amazing arsenal of weapons to choose from, and each fire realistically. For example, your shotgun is satisfyingly effective at short ranges but can't hit a barn door for longer distances, whilst the assault rifles really do rip into the enemy they get hit. Thermal vision acts like it does in real life as does night vision from teargas, phosphorus grenades and Desert Eagles you have everything at your disposal, and you will get to use it all during the game!

So as you can probably see Rainbow Six 3 is A MUST HAVE you haven't lived a true Gamecube experience without playing this. It's fantastic in almost every aspect of it's gameplay, controls and scenarios and provides for many hours of great entertainment.

Buy it, and you'll see what I mean ;)

This a really fun game! The graphics are good, and the action is always there. Even replaying levels that you've played many times, you will always be on the edge of your seat. The many weapon selections gives the same level a new twist each time you play it. If you love action, I highly recommend Rainbow six 3!

Honest reviews on Rainbow Six 3 - Gamecube

After reading the previous raving reviews, I had to doublecheck my package to make sure we're all talking about the same game. Sure enough, we are. I can only surmise that the previous reviewers are either not looking at the PS2 version (poor Game Cubers)or have not played the vastly surperior SOCOM I or II.

So, when compared to SOCOM II:

GRAPHICS

Rainbow Six 3 (R63) graphics are choppy and poorly defined/detailed. The lighting effects are non-existent and worst of all there's just no character to the houses, landscapes, or levels. It's all about the ugly at UBISOFT, kids.

GAMEPLAY/USER INTERFACE

Well, R63 has team commands, but they lack the detail or functionality of SOCOM. The player CAN NOT easily order members to one area while flanking the enemy. Opening/breaching doorways and clearing rooms is a chore in Rainbow, while SOCOM offers various means and levels of participation (2, 3, or 4 man clearing with or without explosives). Moreover, there's not even a map to look at what's up with that? You're going to stroll into combat and forget the map? Me thinks not.

Yet, this minor point underlies a litany of interface problems: poor weapon selection interface, poor weapons to choose from, weak voice acting, sub-standard team chatter, and no 3rd-person views.

I haven't teed up on the online play because quite frankly Rainbox Six 3 couldn't hold my interest that long.

There's a reason this game is in the bargain bin at every store; Six just Suxs.
