Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas is the fifth chronological release in the Rainbow Six
series of video games. It was launched for the Xbox 360 on November 21, 2006, and for Windows on December 12, 2006. The PlayStation Portable version was released on June 12, 2007, for North America and Europe, while the PlayStation 3 version, on June 26, 2007. The game's storyline follows a new Rainbow team that is dispatched to Las Vegas, Nevada, to defeat a terrorist organization (comprised mainly of mercenaries) conducting attacks in the city.
Rainbow Six Vegas changes the series with multiple new features, such as a new health system where the player regenerates health while not taking fire. However, the regeneration is slow compared to other games; if the player does not move to cover quickly enough, one or two more bullets will lead to death. The player's vision is also greatly impaired while damaged, similar to the health system in Gears of War. Furthermore, a third-person view has been included for moments when players can blind-fire around corners to lay down suppression or covering fire.
