Posts: 16 | g.r.a.w 2 or rb6 las vegas? i bought graw2 on lauch date and played it, beat the single player campaign fairly quick, started online working on the campaigns. for some reason this game isn't really grabbing onto me like gears of war did. only reason i play it is to get the achievements but its not like gears of war for me.
on the other hand, i've been playing las vegas at my buddies house on his 360 we've been doing split screen terrorist hunts, i havent tried single player campaign or mulitplayer yet but i was thinking if i should return/sell graw2 for las vegas. im looking for a fun, well populated, multiplayer game
anyone mind dropping their $0.02 on if im about to make a good decision here? |

Posts: 369 | Tough choice. I like both, but for different reasons. I say keep GRAW2 and pick up a copy of RSV when you can. On the other hand, if GRAW2 isn't quite your thing, there is no sense in keeping it.
GRAW2 has a great multiplayer, too, and it has split screen.... You have to remember, GRAW2 is still fairly new. Give it some time and the servers will fill up. JMO.

Posts: 842 | My vote would go to Rainbow 6:Vegas every time. GRAW is good, and I am not trying to take anything away from that. But RB6V is a great time. Online is a ton of fun and there are more maps and/or modes coming down the line. Good luck~

If you are only playing for the achievements you are playing for the wrong reason to begin with. By default, shouldn't it be R6 since you already got your achievements for GRAW 2? |

Posts: 3,816 | yeh, is it really worth paying £40 for a game just so you can basically buy some GP? i dont quite get people like you either, i prefer to buy and play a game that i love and do what i want on it and if that lovely little "achievement unlocked" alert pops up while i'm playing then it just makes it a little sweeter
but...as a guy who has both games i'd have to say vegas is better. im not sure if thats because i prefer indoor, tactical, close range, room 2 room shooters over outdoor long range shooters or not. but either way i'd put my money on vegas

Posts: 25 | Both are great games. Like the man said; Rainbow is close combat centered around buildings, while graw2 is open terrain combat. Graw2 is more atmospheric, while rainbow is more direct. I would say that rainbow 6 vegas is one of the all time great online experiences; while graw2 is not for everyone........... By the way; a great gamerscore does not make a great gamer. There's no better feeling than beating and embarresing someone with a high gamerscore. |

Posts: 88 | Rb6 Rainbow 6 beats GRAW2 hands down. There is no comparison. If GRAW 2 had the fluidity , the free movement and speed of rainbow 6 then believe me even I would be happy and that usually takes some doing lol |

Posts: 515 | Both are great games! If you must eventually buy one of the two... consider renting them both. That way, you can see which game suits your particular tastes better.
I've played both, but i seemed to have enjoyed Rainbow 6:Vegas better -- IF I HAD TO CHOOSE.
GRAW2 is good too! And to an extent, both are very similiar to each other. Either way, rent them out! |

Posts: 1 | GRAW vs. Rainbox 6 Hey I have to agree with you about GRAW 2 being a bit short. Ironically I sold back Rainbox 6 for GRAW 2 and granted it seems that Rainbow 6 is little bit better then GRAW 2. If you can resale GRAW 2 for a good price( $40-$45) go for it, if you can't keep GRAW 2 and enjoy the awesome LIVE play.
