Rainbow Six: Vegas Cheats for the Xbox 360

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six series is one of few tactical squad-based shooters with near-realistic themes that surround current geopolitical situations. Based on the novel-series with the same name, Rainbow Six is the name of a fictional counter terrorist unit that aims to pull down the dirty business of terrorists and narcotics crime lords. The sixth game of the video game series called Rainbow Six: Vegas lets gamers jump into the shoes of the counter-terrorist unit to stop international terrorist Irena Morales and her accomplices who are creating havoc in Las Vegas’ casinos.

Rainbow Six: Vegas was released on November 21, 2006 for the Xbox 360 platform. The game boasts new features including a new health system, an easy command system based on the D-pad and a new aiming system. The health system allows players to regenerate their health slowly after getting hit. However, death can take place quickly, if enemies fire from close range. Players can also experience in-game blurred visions when they get hit.

Although Vegas is best when played without any hints, cheats or any other assistance, there are some popular hints and cheats for Rainbow Six Vegas that players can take advantage of while playing some missions.
