R6 Vegas "Black Edition" live News

Xbox 360 News by Tom Bramwell

26 June, 2007

Those of you with points left to burn after the "Red Edition" Player's Pack for Rainbow Six Vegas captured and held 800 of your Microsoft points now have the option to sink the same amount into a matching Black Edition.

On Xbox Live Marketplace today, the 705MB downloadable add-on features five multiplayer maps - including a "reduxed" version of "Streets" and the return of "PRESIDIO" from Rainbow Six III. Others are newcomers called things like "Red Lotus" and "Wartorn". Rrrra.

"Place your bets on the Player's Pack: Black Edition to complete the ultimate Vegas experience," the blurb on Major Nelson's blog concludes, and we repeat so as to add a third paragraph to an otherwise-complete story and stop the page looking wonky.

For more on Rainbow Six Vegas (although it seems like we needn't have bothered now), check in with our Rainbow Six Vegas gamepage, where 270 of you claim to own it, and the rest just sit around reading reviews, submitting reader-reviews and watching videos.

Hmmm, should I? I didn't really get the most out of the previous edition, hardly played any matches on the new maps. I'll have to sleep on it I think.

Everything here is included in the PS3 version (out on Friday) so I might hold of on this for now

Same as Inquisitor, don't really play the last lot of maps that much.

Shame they can't concentrate on sorting out the glitches online before they go releasing more content and squeezing more money out of everyone!

Out of curiosity, do those of you who play the game online find that new maps get played much, old maps are abandoned, etc? I have no idea how the game works online, but presumably there are people who can't play on the newer maps too?

Maybe I should have gone to download on the day it was released, as I can't find any sign of the download now either!

It really sucks because when I try to join friends online a pop up tells me that I can't join them as they're using content that cannot be found on my console (words to that effect). :(

I sure hope they sort it out!
