Rejoice, counter-terrorist hotshots! After months of sheer neglect, Ubisoft has finally announced that a sequel to the highly successful tactical shooter Rainbow Six: Vegas is currently in development at their Montreal studios.
Critically acclaimed for reviving the Rainbow Six series after the load of steaming horseshit called Lockdown, Vegas brought fans of the tactical shooter genre as well as regular FPS fans together in a great meld, before ending with an infuriatingly nail-biting cliffhanger. Announcing Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 in a press release, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has said that the sequel, still set in Las Vegas, should be arriving on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 sometime in March 2008, with a new single player campaign and some surprising additions to the multiplayer and co-op modes.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas has been the effect of a bomb in the world of video gaming in 2006, by introducing in one fell swoop technological advance and innovation in terms gameplay.
We are confident that Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 will also pioneer in the field of highly competitive shooters and delight fans of the Rainbow Six brand.
This time, though, let’s hope that PC owners get a better port job with fewer problems and complaints and that PS3 owners don’t have to wait months before getting to drop tangos with a well placed shot. Irena Morales, I’m-a comin’ to getcha!

Is it just me or does the screenshot released by Ubi look pretty fucking horrible?

Yup, it actually does. Probably early WIP I hope, and without all those messy port jobs that ended up screwing the textures in the PC version of RSV. Let’s hope it actually lives up to its predecessor and doesn’t pull a Lockdown on all of us.

Sssshhhhh. We try not to think of the crapfest that was Lockdown.

Hard not to, when you actually paid for the original and it stares mockingly at you everytime you glance upon your collection. That, and Enter the Matrix. And Mace Griffin: Bounty Hunter.

Lol.. Don’t forget Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death. A part of me died after I reviewed that game

Oh yeah, thank God your review saved me from a similar fate. Still, I feel better for you than I do for poor Reggie, who put himself through something called Operation: Matriarchy! And then there was the unbearable John Romero nightmare that I experienced. You know the one I mean…
