Felt the need for some mindless violence today (virtual of course) so i loaded up an old first person shooter . Tom Clancy's rainbow 6 (Vegas) and i cant leave it alone unsure.gif
Considering the age of the game , the graphics are good , and its really immersive .
Ive managed to survive most of the scenarios , but there is one called the "kill house" ... a terrorist training camp type thing , and I'm having a hard time in there . Dudes coming out of nowhere , with real bad attitudes .
I find the room by room situations really get the adrenalin going ( even though its not real)
Anyway , i have rid the world of at least 50 bad guys today .... and I only died 8 times. rolleyes.gif
Just looking at some others i have on my desk .... "sniper , ghost warrior" "call of duty" and "hitman" maybe i should talk to someone ninja.gif

This time off the year we a lot of tourists laugh.gif ... last time I brought a shoot em up type was back in 2000, in the end I gave it away.

having played first person shooters for a long time I say welcome to the club (though Vegas is over the shoulder view from memory?)

Yea shooters are fantasitc for a bit of adrenaline. I like the Arma 3 which is more a sim though, And i also really combat flight sims (DCS).

That's quite fun Rainbow 6 especially when using flashbangs and clearing rooms, if you're into that stuff Arma 2/3 has some good missions of a similar nature only more freedom = more fun. Or if you like killing zombies there is always DAYZ.
