Unlike the embarrassingly dummied-down PlayStation version, Rainbow Six on the DC has everything the PC game does, plus more missions. What it doesn't have, however, are intuitive controls. This is probably the most complex Dreamcast game on the market. Since you control a tactical squad of troops equipped with lots of gadgets, it takes an awful lot of button combinations to keep things in hand. After all, on the PC you have the luxury of a keyboard and mouse. For the first few missions you'll be fumbling about and sometimes you'll feel like you're fighting your control pad as much as you are the terrorists. Having the instruction book in front of you helps, but not as much as it should--a lot of the subtleties in the game aren't covered at all in the crappy manual. Once you finally get into the swing of things, you'll find that Rainbow Six is a very satisfying tactical game that is a welcome alternative to the crowd of cookie-cutter first-person shooters out there. Not only do you complete your missions by being stealthy, but also by planning ahead of time. Properly outfitting your troops and having them work together is key (through orders and planning on a map), but the game's flaky Al makes them stumble about, sometimes rendering that planning useless. Between that and the controls, R6 can be very frustrating, but if you can grit your teeth and be patient, you'll probably enjoy the game.

Oh, you'll find plenty of reasons to cringe at Rainbow Six. It's got blocky, as-seen-on-PC visuals. Control is downright grueling; figuring out the button combos to switch weapons, change views, jump to different team members, etc., is about as simple as mastering Tekken combos (I wish this game supported the keyboard). And where's the multiplayer cooperative mode? Even the N64 version's got that! But give this game a chance. It's got the infamous and intense one-hit-and-yer-dead gameplay, and the mission planner is surprisingly rewarding once you get the hang of it. lust be sure to twiddle with the training missions 'til you master the controls.

Big Six Research Model

I'm blown away by the depth of this game. As a PC port nothing was compromised. In fact, there are even more options and features including extra missions. Once you get accustomed to the commands (there are many, believe me) and settle into the rhythms of this game you're going to love it. Mission plans are deep with detail and can be customized to the hilt. Characters gain skill with each successful campaign. Eventually you can simply command your boys to do the dirty work for you. It's not an easy game either--enemies are surprisingly clever most of the time. If you don't mind a steep learning curve, Rainbow Six is well worth the money.
