"Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® 3: Black Arrow™ for the Xbox will launch this summer! Developed by Ubisoft’s Montreal studios, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® 3: Black Arrow™ improves upon the most successful Xbox Live™ game of all time with new single- and multi-player missions, new online modes, split-screen for cooperative gameplay, and a host of new features that maximizes the possibilities of Xbox Live. It will be the first game to deliver the new Xbox Live 3.0 features to the gaming community!
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six® 3: Black Arrow™ continues in the vein of last year’s mega-hit, which received a number of awards, including ‘Console First Person Action Game of the Year’ from the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences (AIAS), X03 Game of the Show and ‘Best First Person shooter’ and ‘Best Online Game’ from IGN. Players command a four-man international anti-terrorist squad comprised of the cream of the crop from the United States, Germany, Britain and France as they infiltrate a ring of nefarious terrorists and halt their bloody quest for weapons and power. The popular voice-activated command system, individual personalities of the team members, and comprehensive Xbox Live multiplayer capabilities will be familiar to current devotees, while the new missions and features will attract a new crop of players."
To split hairs about the hard drives, some are 10 Gb, some are 8 Gb. But the Xbox only recognises 8 Gb on the 10 Gb ones.
Hopefully they'll tart up the graphics and iron out the glitches like they did with Island Thunder. Hopefully be more multiplayer orientated like Island Thunder as well.
Might reknew my faith back in co-op mode as well, also hopefully have more varied missions and less claustrophobic levels this time round.
Damn pre-release hype.
The 5 or so meg that the download takes up isn't so big, in comparison.
