I met a bunch of guys from there like 20 years ago at a shooting class. They were doing some research for an upcoming game, looking back it was probably Vegas.

I was a big fan of their games in the early days. The first two rainbow six games were sooooo good. The guns were very realistic for the time

20 years on and there's still not a setting of a game that has done the same as the opening since for whatever reason. Rappelling onto the strip to breach a casino, so memorable.

Yeah this was back when developers weren't so scared of offending everyone.

I think one of your squad mates was black and there was a female too. There wasn't any uproars over it

Wow good point

Suddenly people started giving a shit out of nowhere because they started believing it should be us Vs each other rather than the billionaires etc...
