The rather bizarre formatting is being fixed now. Someone had gnawed through a wire. Fingers are being pointed at hamster boy.

Oh. Oho. There goes rauper, stealing my thunder.

My question about home suffered much butchery.

Wrongly asked, 'I'm sure you don't want to exhaust the Vegas setting to much more. Where to after Vegas?'

Forgot this was ubisoft we're dealing with.

I asked if he would consider getting Ross Kemp in to do a voice over. I'm quite obviously being ignored.

Bugger, didn't answer my question on why there's no party system.

That's an oversight if ever I saw one.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is not in my list, there are in my opinion far better shooters already released "or to be released in short time" such as COD4, Battlefield: Bad Company, SOCOM, Haze, Killzone2, UT3 (to fresh things up a little and bring some arcadish style) Ghost Recon, Resistance 2 etc...

Everyone is entitled to an opinion,but i think its unfair to argue that "unreleased title X" is superior to "unreleased title Y"...

My TOTAL lack of surprise at my question about giving money to the evil overlords of the arms business getting a 'no comment' �_�

I hope the Eurogamer staff follow this one up though. I know they're blatantly well in with Ubisoft and probably making a lot of advertising money from them and that's fine, but I'd really like to know if my favourite hobby is becoming part of the military-industrial complex

Matty, mate, really? You like games about shooting stuff but consider guns and gun manufacturers evil? I know that's not a complete contradiction, but I believe it's a tiny bit schizophrenic. It's not even a fantasy game, it's one grounded in reality and has to have real weapons, because that's what a significant part of the game's public wants.

Sadly, there's no middle-road satisfying the mainstream and what has apparently become "the hardcore", or in other words, the PC gamers. At least those of us that prefer our games with a bit more depth.

I loved the Rainbow Six-series up until Ravenshield. Had Ubisoft not been complete arses and pulled the official servers, way too soon after release by the way, I'd probably still be playing it.

Let's hope they make an effort and create a hardcore-mode in upcoming games, not unlike CoD4, but one that's actually tactical, like the old games were.

Oh well, who cares. Bring on endless wave after wave of shallow spray-and-pray games. It's like everyone has an attention-span of five seconds now a days; if something doesn't blow to bits as soon as the game loads, and if something doesn't continually blow to bits every five seconds after that, gamers fall asleep. Morons. :-/

"I can't answer that question".
"I can't comment on that".
"I can't say anymore on that".

Anything you can actually say?

Is there a possibility of more players in Terrorist Hunt for the PC? I understand the limitations of the consoles, but with the PC and the simplicity of TH - it could be done with a patch.
Four just isn't enough! If you want to increase sales for the PC - expand the multi-player aspects! No wonder you don't sell as well as you would like on the PC, since you are not dedicated to releasing a competitive product in that market. PC games do incredibly well if they feature good multi-player options and co-op is extremely popular.
The only reason I and my 8 buddies, whom I play games with bought GRAW, was the patch which increased the player cap in Terrorist Hunt to 16. Multi-player is a tremendous factor in choosing to purchase rather than to download pirated content. Another is availability and lastly price - everyone I know who plays games BOUGHT the Orange Box from Steam - almost all pre-ordered it because the rebate.
PC gaming isn't in trouble - you are.

PS3 only has 14 players because of "Dedicated Servers" and "Technical Issues".
Does he think any savvy gamer believes that statement ? No. The PS3 has less player support because Ubisoft care less and or their PS3 team is weak.
