So I am half way through RB6V2. I will keep this review short, as I don't want it to sound like a repeat of my review from RB6 :)
Controls:
Overall, if you played the first game, there will be no surprises in store for you here. With the exception of a sprint feature, this game plays just like it did before, from shooting, to using the cover feature, nothing has changed.
Graphics:
Even though some may say there is an improvement, I find it hard to tell. I guess, the online graphics are better, but over all this game LOOKS just like the first one except you are in different areas of Vegas. However, with what seems like bigger, more open areas (Convention Center) it seems like there are new frame rate issues that we did not see before, they are VERY noticeable when you use smoke grenades.
Story:
Ummm, yeah, I think there is one.
Online:
This is where this game still shines, I have not played a lot online, but it seems stable, and everything you loved about the first game is still there in this one. One cool thing, you now not only earn EXP while playing multi-player games, you also earn EXP while playing in the single player campaign. Also, you gain EXP when your team members (human or AI) get kills. Also, the maps seem bigger, or more open so there are many ways to get from on point to another, this leads to some great sneaking around.
Difficulty:
Not sure if it's just me, but this game (on realistic) is very hard, almost harder then the first game. There have been checkpoints that have taken me 10-15 times to get past.
At The End Of The Day
This does feel like Rainbow Six Vegas version 1.5. That is not necessarily a bad thing, it does every thing it did well before, with no real drawbacks to think of, it just does not really do anything NEW or ground breaking. If you enjoyed the first game, then you will enjoy MOTS (more of the same). If you did not play the first one, then jump right in, it will keep you entertained for a while.

One of the worst games I have ever played. Honestly. Read this before you buy or even rent this waste of money.
