Ubisoft's Tom ClancyÂ’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 (Microsoft Xbox 360, Sony PlayStation 3, PC) is supposed to "take the franchise to new heights with new gameplay features and groundbreaking co-op and multiplayer modes," but we're not exactly that picky, so we're very happy even with just these new screens from the game. What we're looking at don't have excessive amount of bloom, but they do get us excited about the next Rainbow Six title from Ubisoft.

It's got guys in uniform, guns, and blood-stained floors - this sequel of Tom Clancy's successful Vegas and the sixth chronological Rainbow Six title has your typical next-gen first-person shooter fare. You can choose to gander at the screenshots below, or speculate about how the actual game will be. After all, it sounds promising with 11 new weapons and customizable clothing that should make the experience of being in the special forces a lot sweeter.

Tom ClancyÂ’s Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 is scheduled for release this March, and it's going to coincide with Rainbow Six' 10th anniversary so it won't be surprising if Ubisoft goes all out. Our eyes are peeled for any new snippets the devs will be willing to reveal about Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas 2, so watch this space for updates!

Good to see that Ubisoft Montreal will (still) be developing this. But I still do hope that Red Storm will eventually get back to its tracks. I have to admit that Rainbow Six Vegas by Ubisoft Montreal is a very good game. But I still admire the good old Rainbow Six days by Red Storm. Red Storm screwed up the Rainbow Six series on Lockdown but at least they get to make Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2. Either or, both studios are owned by Ubisoft. So they will be able to pull it off.

Is it just me..

or is everyone else underwhelmed too? I think we've been spoiled by CoD4.

Those screens don't look too hot. I'm not spoiled by COD4, as I've yet to even play it, but in these screens, the only good looking thing is the character models. Everything else looks very lackluster..

R6 has never been top notch in graphics...

If you have played previous/old R6 games, the main focus is stragetic FPS. The strategic part was the key during the old days. You have plan your entry and breach. But like I said, the tides turn the other way when Lockdown was released, they took off the planning section so it went from stragetic FPS to just your average FPS. Probably to increase fanbase support for the R6 franchise. The main reason why COD4 is amazing is because Infinity Ward uses their own proprietary engine. Unlike Ubisoft Montreal which uses the Unreal Engine 3, IW can optimize everything since they are the ones who developed the engine.
