Here we go again as we look at the next installment in the Rainbow Six series.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six 3 (2003/2004) Xbox, PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCubeRainbow Six was no stranger to console having appeared on PlayStation, Nintendo 64 and Sega Dreamcast. But this would be the series’ first entry on this generation of console. The game was originally released on the Xbox before making an appearance on the PlayStation 2 and GameCube the following year.
While this version is called Rainbow Six 3, you will notice the subtitle is missing. That is because the console versions are completely different to the PC. There is no complex planning of missions before you do them like in the PC version (which is one of the major things about the Rainbow Six series) and in general, the game has a much more action feel to it. The story was also very different to what the PC version offered. The rainbow team is sent to South America to investigate a series of terrorist attacks and soon finds out that it is the president of Venezuela who is behind them.
Players now only control one character, Ding Chavez who is the field commander of the Rainbow team. You can still dish out orders to the rest of the team, but you only have direct control of the one character. In general, this is a much more streamlined Rainbow Six experience. But while this sounds bad, Rainbow Six 3 on console is actually a very fun game in its own right, especially the Xbox version which got great reviews at the time. The PlayStation and GameCube versions of the game did not get quite as high review scores at the time.
War Mode is one of the best new things that Sledgehammer Games added to Call Of Duty WWII. While we wish there were a few more maps, we have had a blast with this mode and wanted to share a few basic tips with you for this mode so you can have as much fun as we are.
We cannot think of another game mode in Call Of Duty that requires teamwork as much as War Mode. In an ideal world, you will have a headset so you can communicate with the rest of your squad. If you do not, make sure you are doing your part, completing objectives or even becoming a human target so that one of your teammates can complete an objective while the enemy is busy with you.
Use Smoke GrenadesSmoke grenades… really? Well yes, while these are kind of useless in most other game modes, War Mode is not like other game modes in Call Of Duty WWII. Smoke grenades can allow you to get in and build that bridge, or provide cover so you can get away from that tank. As soon as you have them unlocked, add them to your loadout.
Take Advantage Of Your DefensesWhen you are playing on the defensive side, take the time to build up your defenses. This can be a great way to make the enemy go where you want them to go or even get them to try and take them down, leaving them vulnerable as they do.
Use Your Knowledge Of The MapsAs there are only three maps, you will know them very well. Use this to your advantage. Anticipate the areas that the enemy is most likely going to attack from and set up a trap. Find areas that are easy to hide in so you can make it to an objective. Just take the time to learn the maps as best you can.

Call Of Duty WW2 Dominates Sales Charts
It is no secret that Call Of Duty WW2 is one of the best received games in the series. It was a great return to form for the series and we have not actually heard anyone who has played it really have anything negative to say about it.
We all knew that it had sold well, but the amazing news is actually coming out of the UK where Call Of Duty is the number one selling game of 2017 and is the Christmas number one game, a title that Call Of Duty has held for the last 4 years in a row (yes even Infinite Warfare) and in total has held 8 times!
The only games that have beaten it are Fifa 09 in 2008, Skyrim in 2011 and Fifa 14 which was released in 2013. It is a truly phenomenal run that shows no matter how much people like to make fun of the annual Call Of Duty series, that this series has some serious legs and in all honesty when it comes to iconic gaming series. Even if you are not a huge Call Of Duty fan, you have to put it up there with the likes of Mario, Sonic, Halo, Resident Evil and the other iconic games.
The people at Activision must be thrilled as even though they held the top spot last year, Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare was not as well received. Call Of Duty WW2, on the other hand, has not only sold like hot cakes, it has also been very well received by gaming media and people who have actually played the game.
