This game was pretty ahead of its time for shooters. Lots of memories made trying to clear all the maps as a kid.

Another great tactical FPS, I really wish Rainbow Six still had single player campaigns like this. Shows it’s age in places but still holds up today, it’s a bit of a toss up if this is better than the original Vegas I do like the tactical sprint addition and a super tense section where you don’t have your allies. The first game had slightly better environments though, being focused in downtown Vegas is very iconic, but this one does have great levels as well like neighborhoods, a convention center, a villa, and a monorail station. Worth playing if you like tactical shooters or are just nostalgic for the days where Ubisoft was putting out great games left and right.
