If you've played the original R6:V much of this game will be familiar to you. The looks, mechanics and controls are very much the same as before. The subject matter of the story and even the side-kicks on your team haven't changed either for that matter.

R6:V2 plays more like an expansion to the first offering, but a good one nonetheless. The ACES system, ranking and achievements are a brilliant addition to the PC. As is the ability to customise your avatar in the single-player campaign. New weapons are always nice, but don't really change the game play experience.

It's better to think of this in the same terms as the "stand-alone expansions" of late, rather than a full sequel. So if you enjoyed the first game (as I did), this is right up your alley. - (4/5)

Customer rating: 2 out of 5 stars Not impressed

This game is not impressive at all. It plays exactly like a console port on to the PC. The graphics are good, but the gameplay just isn't worth it. It has nothing of the tactical element of the original games e.g. Rogue Spear and as a first person shooter (since its not tactical) it really lacks realism. Buy Call of Duty: Modern Combat instead, you'll have more fun.
