This is literally the first time I've seen someone say either of the R6 Vegas games have some of the best campaigns. They are probably the most serviceable campaigns in a shooter last generation, the perfect thing to mess around with when you arent playing the multiplayer. Also those game's rely so heavily on their cover mechanics that I don't think I would even lump them in the FPS genre completely.
I think every mode in both of those games is great. Enjoyed both the campaigns a lot. However I do consider them a FPS/TPS mix.
Doom calibre? I wouldn't say that myself but they are really fun. I really like that kind of squad based tactical shooter and the genre hardly exists anymore.
I said everything I said as a big fan of nearly all of the rainbow six games. Love the games to death, but I found it comical seeing the vegas games as best shooter campaigns in FPS history.
The Rainbow Six Vegas campaigns. The story may not be all that memorable, but the locations you go through are great. You can play on your own and command squad AI team mates, or you can play co-operatively with friends. You can play on Normal difficulty, or when you bump it up to Realistic, the gameplay gets even better. Night and Thermal vision, flashbangs, smoke grenades, remote detonated C4 charges. Shooting people while hanging from ropes. Peeking under doors and tagging enemies, sometimes you get caught in the open, other times, you can plan ahead how to tackle tough encounters. I even played through Rainbow Six Vegas 2 on Realistic using only a Desert Eagle pistol, making it the only FPS campaign I've played through three times. Easily among the best fps campaigns of all time, still good looking games now.
