Team Rainbow is a multinational task force comprised of counter-terrorism experts from around the globe. Equipped with state-of-the-art weapons, Team Rainbow is deployed during terrorist crises. When all other attempts have failed, Rainbow is brought in to save the lives of innocent people.
They do not negotiate with terror. They destroy it.
Members of the team are from all over the world, the best of the best, and you are one of them.
You start out rescuing hostages from terrorists, but as you go on, you discover there are bigger things at stake. Such as the entire world.
Based upon the acclaimed franchise by the famous author Tom Clancy
The focus on planning and situational awareness make this a “thinking man’s shooter”

I'll keep this short, but this game was AMAZING in it's time.
Very frustrating at first (how fast you die etc) but once you give it a chance, get used to it, the game just gets so exciting and fun.
Multiplayer was also great.
Great game, give it a go!
Just remember!
With all Rainbow 6 games, they are very very irratating at first, simply because you do tend to do very fast and sometimes can't even tell who shot you etc - put auto aim on and get used to the game then you'll love it.
Well, everybody knows you can't play the latest shooter on a netbook. But, I decided to try it out after reading the glowing reviews by the others and I'm totally satisfied. Although, at first I thought I had problem with the file as it keep telling me that the file is corrupted. But, after I read the help file which told me to skip the integrity check and just go ahead installing it. It installed without any hitch! I'm an avid FPS shooter especially the latest COD and even Rainbow Six Vegas but been looking for a great FPS for my netbook and this is it. Definitely, a must buy. It's pretty smooth framerates unlike Far Cry which is graphic intensive. You can play it in first person view or third. No, matter. This is the best tactical game for a netbook yet. Make me love my netbook n Gog more! More such games plsss....
I have this on the PS1, but the actual PS1 is dead now :/
i can remember playing this back in the day :D - brilliant game, good graphics, better than most of the FPS' today!
now only if they had metal gear solid ...
*Or, you know, a thinking woman's shooter. Unlike just about every other shooter series, this one includes female special forces operators from around the world!
So basically, you ought to play this for the same reason that you probably ought to read Hamlet. It's a dated story, but it's also an important game that did a lot to push the genre. When R6 came out, pretty much every shooter out there was some variation on Doom or Quake (with a special mention to Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight). This game did something radically different: in lieu of bunny-hopping, it rewarded you for thinking, and it punished the hell out of you for not thinking. It not only spawned the tactical shooter, it defined a lot of what you can and cannot do in other shooters. There's no bunny-hopping in Modern Warfare 2 mainly because Rainbow Six said that's stupid.
I want to emphasize for those of you who never played this before, though, that in the early R6 titles, you spent about 70-90% of your time in the planning phase drawing out your assault. Especially because that disappeared completely from the series starting with R6: Vegas, that might come as a shock. A lot of old-timers are going to tell you that planning out each intricate move is a mainstay of the series, and Vegas did violence to Rainbow Six by abandoning it. Truth be told, a significant reason that the planning phase used to be such a huge portion of the game is that the path-finding AI used to be terrible and simply could not be expected to adjust on the fly during the execution phase. That started to change with Raven Shield, which also introduced context-sensitive menus during the execution phase; I'm pretty sure the reason the planning phase disappeared after that game was that future designers realized you could do 80% of what you wanted using only the context menus. SWAT 3 and SWAT 4 also went the same direction.
Have fun!
Windows 7 64 bit, Intel cpu with an AMD RX 580 are the basic hardware of this computer, and this game will not run at all without me using Dxwnd and even then so far I have only gotten 5 fps out of it. I thought GOG games were supposed to just work? Why did I even bother buying this if it wasn't going to work? What the heck?
