Your Squad is your Weapon: I see Rainbows
Freefall \| 5:29 AM on 09.09.2009	2 comments

Nothing gets you immersed in games more than being in a squad in the heat of battle. These teams get you through the most deadly of situations. These are the best of the best. I will have a look at the best squads in the coming weeks and finally have a Poll to decide the ultimate Squad. Today we'll have a look at:

Rainbow Six from Rainbow Six Vegas

About Rainbow Six:
Rainbow Six as an international counter-terrorism operation hosted by NATO and funded by money funneled through the U.S. Department of the Interior. The name Rainbow Six refers the many different nationalities that make up the team.

There are quite a few members; different people for each game, but this is the main team in Vegas.
Members:
*Logan Keller (Leader)
*Michael Walters (Demolition Expert)
*Jung Park (Electronics Expert)

Moment of Awesome:
Shooting Irena Morales, then heading to the top of the dam and casually destroying the missile, another day in the job.

Why I think they are Badass:
Have you seen they're credentials? No, neither have I, but I'm sure they have very good ones. The actions they do speak for themselves though. They run through Vegas, decimating every single terrorist force they come too, never needing back up, and it's just three of them! Three! Impressive stuff.

How are they on the Hardest Difficulty Level?
Not too bad, it helps that you can revive them, it doesn't help when they get shot and die before you can get to them. Luckily you can order them to go places and breach a room from one side, while you breach it from another. Team work is important here, if by team work you mean 'Ordering them guys to walk into the line of fire'.

Thoughts:
A really down to earth team, no real witty comments or humorous lines, just work, work, work, they don't even stop to play slot machines, heck, they had ample opportunity. I guess its nice to be with a team which is professional, even if they don't make me smile. At least they're damn good at shooting terrorists... thousands of them.

Team Rating: 81%

My Gaming Confessions

You've seen me before?

Who Am I?
I once went to the cinema and watched a 3D movie. As I was walking out, a guy with his 3D glasses still on yelled, "Woah, everything is 3D!" I was one of the 10 people that put their glasses back on to check.

I was looking at my to-do list on my laptop. Near the bottom of the list, already crossed out, was written "time travel" I have no recollection of writing that.

Once, there were only two brownies left. I decided I should eat them both so that they wouldn't be lonely. I am completely satisfied with my decision.

That's who I am.
