Rainbow Six (PC)

[SprodeBoy]

This video takes so long to load. DAMN YOU AOL!

[RamoB9]

4:31 Got Shit Up I Thought They Were Zombies...

[coldbrewbeer]

I remember playing this multiplayer on MSN Zone..good times!

[TheMango121]

"Playing with W, A, S, D for SOO long!"

LOL this game was before WASD, Even Duke 3D used Arrow Keys.

You can thank Rogue Spear for WASD it was one of the first games to use it default.

[wdsa8d]

just like you, i remember watching this game played by a friend at his house and remembering feeling how realstic it felt - exactly because of the idea of one shot being able to kill you

[winlover37]

This plays a lot like SWAT 3. Another good tactical shooter on the PC.

[HCM29051993]

This game is the best! I have the RS cd1, RS cd2: eagle watch, RS: black thorn(my favorite) and all the others that were more realistic than Vegas and the news ones, now the rainbow looks like a superman that don't die for anything while the old one like you said can die with one shot... Great video!

[TheAfflictionn]

Lol, planning out your missions is why this game is the best.

[spookylocopv]

rainbow six + eagle watch / roguespear + covert operation + blackthorn is awesome. Used to play this alot on MSN Zone (Roguespear)

[TheCyberAssassin]

i never knew that this was originally on pc. the ps1 version was one my first action games. but this looks soooooo much better. the planning looks like the best part. prolly the smartest ally ai ive ever seen

[Rancen123]

Hey, I played this game on Dreamcast and it was about 20-30 fps. Even with modern pc problem is probably (as practice saying mostly) in emulated dx9 on windows7. On XP it would run most probably at max with fraps. W7 sucks hard in all parameters, cept dx10-11. So, just good only in games with dx10-11 support, otherwise - pure junk in terms of speed, advanced interface and battery life. XP still is the king.

[josh1303]

I am getting lag through my mouse (Logitech G9) with this game and rouge spear. I turned down the sensitivity ingame but its still not perfect smooth and i get hesitation when aiming ingame, any ideas?

[Ragnos1997]

Old Times yeah

[trojanspaghetti]

the way to tell if someone is good at the rainbow or ghost recon series is the person will scroll through the team members taking advantage of synergy-

at the end of the game all team members should have nearly an equal number of kills if the person is a skilled player

[Redwolfxx]

Classic!



[lanmi9659]

Classic Tom Clancy intro... #Epic

[suLstrat]

yeah no. counter strike was much better "STRATEGY" shooter and was released b4 that game

[AIRSOFTserbia123]

@suLstrat counter strike was actually released later (in 1999).

[Deadpool534]

lol six is my fav number . you got rainbow six, seal team six that headshoted osama and bravo six from Cod

[MW2crewAD]

the dam mission was my fav...... i would take ding chavez only on elite and not get shot at at all

[tml240]

teamgod lol

[quedog701]

When it install nothing comes up you help me

[FunkySamek]

I still remember the intro movie. And soundtrack was amazing as well!

[JamesTCA]

great review...thanks.

[MrMegaalve]

sou fã desse jogo

[DominateSupremacy]

this game is back online! check out my video!

[davideatshershey]

Intro vid always gives me goosebumps, spectacular game, still play it and its expansions.

[TheFiscster510]

This game is amazing! i used to play it back in like 2000 and its great to see it again :D

[Americanfootballer]

This game as fun to play against people on the Zone back in the day.

[moderndude1234]

@Americanfootballer

how do you play this game on the msn gaming zone plz reply

[ocampor0011]

I miss that game

[dynasticmatt95]

I loved the game but didnt realize that Crappy quality of the Graphics

[Zoneup100]

I bought Rainbow Six today for my 64 Bit Windows 7 and tried setting the compatibility to Win 95/98 but it still wouldn't work :(

[videomagnet2000]

@Zoneup100 Uninstall the game first. Then put the disc in and right click on it and press explore. Find the file that is called setup.exe. Set that to win95/98 in compatibility mode and then double click on it to install the game. Then when the game is installed play the game on compatibility mode. Should work (it works for me).

[Zoneup100]

@videomagnet2000 Uh, I couldn't find setup.exe so I used compatibility on the Application "SETUP" but it still wont work.

[LifeinaRaindrop]

GLOBAL COMPUTER NETS

[PoXii]

For ppl that wana play Rainbow Six and Eagle Watch / Nato ofc! Cya there!

youtube.com/watch?v=770-V65Sea­Y

[Wedge4Life]

The funny thing is this was the 1st game I ever played on my own PC ....

to this day I still use the arrows for movement in all fps games and not awsd.... i had arguments with my friends over it all the time about 'how the game is supposed to be played

I blame Rainbow Six.... what a great game though

[LiceFork]

A+ commentary! THANK YOU! Brings back memories :)

[superherb7]

oh my god i still have this game i love it..never beat it tho...

[Stick341]

when my dad bought this game when i was lil it cost him like 50 bucks

[572dwayne]

i beat this on elite best game in its time in downloading the torrent right now hehehe

[572dwayne]

this is my favorite game ever

[RickRandy69]

it came before counterstrike and unlike cs it was a true strategy fps.

[Lockbar]

I loved that game. Forgot about most of the maps. I bought a new fast PC in 1998 just to play the game after I saw a guy playing it at a computer store. I can't imagine the hundreds of hours I spent playing it.

[SabreFan84]

I used to have this game. My favorite feature was fart mode, especially team fart mode. When your squad moves, they fart, and sometimes, one of your teammates will yell, "Watch your fire!"

[LuigiKat11]

OMG! I found this game! *looks in case* FUUUUUUUUU ITS EMPTY

[Spaesmic]

This is good. You're good.

Need to get this.

[zero2186]

one of my favorite games of all the times, specially for the nostalgic sensation it has ^^

[csmybuttt]

I bet half of the youtube population was busy shitting their diapers when this game came out.

[Franksta]

OH SNAP, takes me back to my newb days...i too used to play this online on MPLAYER... oh wowww.. i remember that online airport stage was my favorite.. thanks for this flash back... kick ass video. gg.

[tbeezy1]

Classic game.. I remember being on Mplayer and zone playing this game. Brings back memories when i was claning and gaming hard.

[Mrhabla09]

ahhh i remember playing this im a a fan of these old tom clancy's games =D i got the rainbow six platinum pack edition =D but uhm unfortuantly i got vista and it doesn't work on it XD

[TheOldschool81]

I had this for the PSX. hard but good game.

[powerinstars6]

This game brings back memories. The Mplayer, with all the different clans they had at the time. LRRP, ah yes. I remember many things. Oil Rig and Mint were one of the most over used level in Multiplayer. It was the time when people bragged about how they had T1 connection at school or wherever. Great time.

[baosen92]

This game is probably the inspiration for Counter Strike. They play utterly similiar and some of the sounds and models are very similiar too.

[Homer12333]

how to open door pc

[CdogTehFirst]

I miss this.

[mos158]

I loved this game when i was younger i wanna buy it again D:

[MemoHDFromWWE]

i still have mine from 2001 imma try it on windows 7

[martinmerrywinkle]

will never forget the day I sneaked this game past my controlling mum, got the bus home really exited, booted it up, and played one of the best shooting games ever......video games partially made up for my shitty childhood

[Gabrielvogel]

In the N64 version everytim you throw a flashbang, all hostages dies. Even if they are 1000000000km away.

[dtoned1234]

haha i was rank 1 on some of the leagues when this was huge.. was (fuk)stains.

[ideMeth]

if yall are interested in first person shooter computer games. I can show yall how to get Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six (original) don't need the best computer in the world to play this game. Can show yall how to get the full game + patches. New anticheat patch is now out. im me on aim. (BrutalDemeth)

[Zain844]

I can't stand stealth games I like some of them like Hitman or Manhunt but i dont like tom clancy stealth games I just find them way too frustrating When I play a game I want to feel powerful like a predator which is why im really looking frward to Splinter cell conviction

[150unknown051]

i dont understand.....so you dont like tom clancy stealth games, but you cant wait for splinter cell conviction (which is also a tom clancy strategy game)???????

[Zain844]

But Splinter Cell Conviction doesn't look like it will be like other tom clancy stealth games. In Conviction you don't just sneak around and you get caught and thats it the mission is over like in the other splinter cell games. In this one you are a predator hunting your enemies the mark and execute looks really cool. They are taking the stealth action genre to a different level. It doesn't look like a typical stealth game at all. It looks new and fresh thats why im looking forward to it

[150unknown051]

to tell you the truth.....i do also agree......never a fan of prevous splinter cell( except for online mode) hated the mission over thing aswell as enemy respawns

[RhodeRocker]

gr8 memories of this game

wen i was younger my dad used 2 play this on his laptop and i wud watch him play and i wub b in charge of watching the map 4 enemies rounds the corner! LOL

now i have this game 4 the PS1 classic game

[moderndude1234]

@ideMeth will ya look at that another douche that got spammed

[zatch113]

I loved this and Rainbow Six 2. Online was such a fun experience, except for that damn lag...stupid 56k...

[vox2007]

And I'm a hugh Medal of honor fan :) have all classic MOH: Allied Assault, still play it online some. Alot of people don't know, but all the yesterday games still have many dedicated servers up and running and people still play them online.

[vox2007]

I have all the classic Rainbow Six games :) up to Rainbow Six 3 Athena Sword. And Ghost Recon and Both expansion packs, and all the Battlefield series games, bf:1942, bf:vietnam, bf:2.  I think I have a total of 60 pc games, mostly yesterday games, but I'm still on a yesterday dell 8200, 2001 model so.

[gdement]

Looks great!

I played the N64 version for the 1st level, but this looks better. This game fits my personality, I'm more into stealth rather than run and gun. Even games like DOOM I always played pretty slow.

[GrugNorg]

Doesn't windows 7 have a program where you can tell it what your computer is running in like a simulation? Like a windowed version of an older pc?

[MN12BIRD]

Yes I beleive it will emulate older OS simular to a VM when it needs to.

[moderndude1234]

@MN12BIRD

do you need this game installed to play rainbow six mission pack: eagle watch

[MN12BIRD]

@moderndude1234 I'm pretty sure you do. Not sure about online I think it had it's own service but it might not even be around anymore. Never played it online just on LAN back in the day.

[moderndude1234]

@MN12BIRD

ok so wat does LAN do or wats the features because i nvr played that before only campaign

[trunxmatt]

@MN12BIRD Yes you need to have R6 installed to play Eagle Watch, online included. I used to ladder play R6 back in the day ^_^ Good memories. First on MPlayer, then on Gamespy and MSN Zone. For any of you that recognize these teams, some clans I was a part of: G|2Z (Grim Raperz), TBBH (The Blitzing Blood Hounds), **TOP** (Temple of Pain), GMA (forget what it stood for), and many many more. Anyone out there used to play R6 online too that can share some memories?

[moderndude1234]

@MN12BIRD

also how do you play online

[ravenrage07]

@GrugNorg just for reference if you havent figured out yet. The only way you can do it w/in microsoft way is upgrading to windows 7 professional which has a windows XP emulator

[ZoNeIlluzionZ]

@GrugNorg

Right Click.

Properties.

Compattability.

Run in windows xp service pack (1 or 2)

[lhilkid]

@GrugNorg i know this is old, but you can always run compatibility mode.

[ronmower]

Yeah that game looks awesome.

[XFile2708]

Still looks a pretty playable game today matey :)

[bluetech7753]

I think this game also made it's way to the playstation one.

[DemonmachinE]

Awesome vid, dude. It looks really good. I think I played this on the PS1 and didn't care for it much, but I was a lot younger back then and would likely enjoy it a lot more now.

[JanoSeishu420]

Sadly i never got the chance to play this game. If i could get my hands on a copy of it i'll be sure to play it.

[MajinFrahma]

I remember this on the Dreamcast.

[SpokenCoken]

like you channel man, but you repeat yourself a lot.

[thebonefish]

Code name... Rainbow. FABULOUS!!!

[codenamegamma]

wow that intro is not far off from what it really is today.

[megamanfan3]

That game is based off of the best-selling novel. And yes, I own a copy of that book.

[Connelly90]

Have you read it? lol

[XSC3]

I didn't really enjoy this one, but I did give it credit for being quite an original take on the FPS genre at the time it came out!

Little things about it bugged me though, most of which were remedied in the "Delta Force" series, though that one left out the strategic mission planning, which I think was what truly made R6 unique.

[bmxguitarest010]

being a couple years old at the time i absolutely hated it cus i loved platformers like crash bandicoot

[alexanderjurjens]

This game is from 1998. Doesn't it have a software renderer?

[WhatPixelYouOn]

Oh man, I remember finding a collectors edition featuring all the old rainbow six games in one huge, awesome box! I snapped it up immediately for about £20 years ago now... Now idea what happened to it now though :/

[PearlJammer07]

This looks like a great game. Yeah, the graphics aren't the best. However I am sure it was state o the art for 1998.Great review!

[KieranD212]

doing more pc titles awesome i prefer the swat series but i did like rainbow 6

it was the first game of its type

it does still look nice for its age i have to say not half bad

[LordReserei01]

yeah, I prefer the S.W.A.T series, still have S.W.A.T 4 myself. =D

[KieranD212]

yeah i like swat 4 it is a fun game

i did like rainbow 6 vegas tho i dont really know why but maybe it was that everyone took it serious and i liked the team aspect and the fun of it

reminded me off a simpler swat game

[nextrexd]

i remember this game it was great

[Neodude991]

Great game. There's another game series for the PC called S.W.A.T which is similar.

[geforce5700fx]

LooL That's OLD !

Remember playin this on psx

[MENJAGVETJUINTE]

OLD?! It's like the newest game this guy ever has reviewed! Haha! :D

[geforce5700fx]

x) Yes compaired to Outrun on sega, Rainbow six is 22th century xD

[shiftyiskev]

he reviewed left for dead...

[kiddfridge80]

really awesome review!

[MyBubbleGutz]

This is the game that got me addicted to online gaming back on my awesome 233Mhz Pentium 2 and 33.6 dial up :)

I even remember how to do the weapons hacks. ie: unlimited ammo

[monkyboy74x]

i loved the first rainbow six wen it came out

[romeoteknik]

I remember spending time planning out the mission on the map screen....classic times!

[NewbtasticGaming]

Love the Rainbow Six series, specially im a fan of Raven Shield :)

[vipor29]

im thinking of picking up some old school pc titles on ebay cuz i feel like playing pc games again

[heftymadmonkey]

Awesome video man but honestly it did feel kinda rushed with the louder than voice game audio and the mouse clicks at the end :P great video though get well soon!

[ivantopito]

this game was awesome, i remember having this game, delta force 2, and fifa 98 on my good old windows 98 back then. gold team FTW!

[igotyou62]

i still have this game for my PC it was the shit back in the day.this brings back a lot of memories

[segagenesis1989]

Jake, Have you read the Tom Clancy book?

One of my favourite games is Rainbow Six Vegas. This is really an amazing series.

[wolframf]

Great vid, Jake.

But I prefer playing with my team =)

[ScrewAttackEurope]

I had this on the PS1.

[MultiWarzone]
