I was wondering if there are any tactical shooting games for the ps2 taht are like rainbow six vegas, and is rainbow six lockdown good or bad?|||Best PlayStation 2 Game
Black
Developer: Criterion
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Release Date: 2006
It's too bad EA and Criterion aren't ready to release the E3 video demonstration of Black to the general public. If they were, we wouldn't have to write about it. Instead of filling this space with words extolling the nonstop, volatile excitement of the hyperkinetic first-person shooter, we'd just let you watch the video. And as was our experience behind closed doors at EA's booth this year, it would be all you needed to see. Black's explosive, over-the-top shoot-outs sell themselves more readily than our ineffectual descriptions could ever do.
That Criterion has made only the barest effort to describe Black's storyline, which has you and some other good guys fighting international terrorists, is telling. Let's face it: You don't really need a reason to slam a clip home and lay waste to everything in sight, especially when doing so is as viscerally satisfying as it looks like it will be in this game. That's because Criterion claims the guns themselves are the stars of the show, having gone so far as to coin the phrase "gun porn" in reference to Black's shoot-first-ask-questions-never gameplay. In fact, studio kingpin Alex Ward mentioned prior to our demo that the team's goal was to re-create The Matrix's lobby scene in extended game form, a feat he claims no other developer has yet achieved.
Based on what we saw during the subsequent 10 minutes, Ward and crew are grinding admirably toward that goal. Just about everything in Black's environments breaks or blows up in violent, hyperrealistic fashion, creating an onscreen chorus of chaos far more intense than your average shooter. One of the most noticeable things about Black's firefights is that the air is full of more than just bullets--you're constantly maneuvering amid a sea of sparks, smoke, broken glass, and debris coming from every surface that takes a hit. Never mind the highly destructible environments, which had the player bringing down entire building floors and blowing out the whole glass front of an office building. Black isn't reinventing the first-person shooter--it's just taking the most essential elements of the genre and making them bigger, faster, and more intense than we've ever seen.|||i agree on black
one of the best fps ever|||not really thats why Vegas was a good surprise since the series was good at teh beginning
