XIII may well be good on Live, but on normal multiplayer it's crap.

I can certainly 'grasp' it, but XIII isn't a multiplayer game. You want quick, arcade-style play and it really doesn't deliver, instead you get slow-moving characters with bad controls. Rainbow Six has great gameplay mechanics but it's just too dull.

Aren't you the same person who loves Cel Damage, anyway? :-P

I'm not going tinto to much detail because I don't feel like it at the moment, but, the idea of having seperate head and body armour is a great idea: opponent wearing armoured vest? Shoot him in the head.

Excellent.

The level design is great, just enough space but small enough to make for a frantic game where tactics can still play a part.

Team play: absolutely excellent.

Range of weapons: Damn good.

etc etc etc

In Short: a great multiplayer experience.

XIII is awful on Xbox Live.

The controls and guns just don't suit fast paced deathmatch's.

Rainbow Six's single player's enjoyable, though the AI on your team mates could do with a kick up the ass.

Replace 'bad' with 'hard' and 'rubbish' with 'excellent'.

Just because you can't grasp why a muliplayer mode is good doesn't make it rubbish.

I suggest you try a team game of XIII on Live.
