Rainbow 6 - Vegas II

I was very happy to hear that the Tom Clancy franchise was working on Rainbow 6 Vegas II. The original Rainbow 6 Vegas was my #1 pick for best game on the Xbox 360, now number 2 due to Call Of Duty Modern Warfare, sorry Halo fans. Rainbow 6 Vegas I was really an amazing culmination of first person shooter wish-list achievements.

A few highlights:
- In story mode your computer based team actually performs like a team rather then a bunch of drunk tards out on treasure hunt.
- You can actually give commands to the team from remote locations.
- The story mode was quite a long game, more then I can say for Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2. (I think Rainbow 6 Vegas may have been 3 times longer)
- The multiplayer actually had strategic playability in terms of level design.

Ok on to Vegas II. At the Spike TV Video Game Awards, VGA's, the trailer for Vegas II was released. Ok you have 2 options, either read this line.
- Hey they are making a Rainbow 6 Vegas II.
or
- Watch this video.

You will walk away with the exact same depth of information. Way to go on a cheap ass trailer Tom Clancy!
