Solid shooter

User Rating: 7.5 | Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Lockdown PC
Nothing special; a fun game that if all one wants is to look at some nice scenery and blast through in their spare time, they can do so in a few evenings or a couple of weekends. The storyline is almost beside the point; one can simply jump in without even reading the briefings or altering the configuration of the player's equipment when playing on the standard difficulty (though I always selected high capacity magazines). Those wanting a challenge can play on higher difficulty and attempt to get through without having to restart. A good little game that will present a variety of challenges that way.

The developers have taken great pains to provide an international feel to the cast of characters, but they seem almost beside the point; characters wounded or incapacitated in one mission will reappear in the next with no harm apparently done, and there seem to be no consequences from injuries suffered to the player from one mission to the next. Difficulty could probably have stood to be increased in that respect, but if the player is only looking for a fun shooter, this game will not disappoint.
