Has anyone been able to confirm his existence in other Rainbow games? I haven't been able to do so since the last time I played them before the Vegas story, I didn't see his name anywhere. [[User:Ominae|Ominae]] ([[User talk:Ominae|talk]]) 13:00, 13 June 2014 (UTC) |

At the bottom of the page "In Rainbow Six Vegas 2, a NSA agent (Splinter Cell) liases with the main character ,Bishop, through out the game via radio. They also meet face to face in a helicopter cutscene towards the end of the game, but he is revealed to be the traitor, Gabe Nowak." This is a major plot giveaway, I think this should be changed --[[Special:Contributions/134.153.182.112|134.153.182.112]] ([[User talk:134.153.182.112|talk]]) 15:51, 1 April 2008 (UTC) |

"Ubisoft Entertainment insists on continuing the use of his name on all former Clancy-owned franchises (Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon, and Splinter Cell) as well as using his name on projects that he was never involved in at all (End War, Air Combat) '''in an attempt to lure in the tactical fans who have long-since abandoned those series'''. |

Ubisoft recently bought the "Tom Clancy" name. I believe "Hawx" is the first entirely original title with no input from the man himself: |

While I suppose saying "tactical fans have abandonded those series" is difficult to provide any evidence for there is a recent statement by a Ubisoft executive to the effect of they aren't making tactical games anymore because the market is too narrow: |

== Weaponry == |
|||
What relevance have these weapons got to the storyline? There seems to be no explanation, and the weapons listed appear to be from the video games, not the novel. (The weapons in the novel being Heckler and Koch MP5s chambered in 10mm JHP, with Sound Suppressors, a Walther 2000 sniper weapons system, and a laser sighted M60 E4.) I suggest that you replace this list with a list of the weapons from the novel or a list with the weapons from the video games series. See the weapons list in the [[Delta Force: Black Hawk Down]] page for ideas. [[User:Delta Five|Delta Five]] ([[User talk:Delta Five|talk]]) 21:56, 26 January 2008 (UTC) |

:I agree, considering that weapons lists arent allowed as i understand, and agian, the novel only mentions the few guns, MP5/10s, the M60, the Walther and Johnson's custom rifle. and from a logical standpoint, what professional counter-terrorism/hostage rescue team would use a MAC 10 when better equipment is available? <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/66.191.125.92|66.191.125.92]] ([[User talk:66.191.125.92|talk]]) 21:39, 21 May 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Tango means Target. It usually refers to terrorist but it's the replacing word of Target. Some sort of [[argot]] used by Team Rainbow. --[[User:Mato Rei|Mato Rei]] ([[User talk:Mato Rei|talk]]) 03:03, 25 April 2008 (UTC) |

Rules of engagements in the case of a SWAT team would call for the surrender of suspects and possibly terrorists but are real counter-terrorist units always on shoot to kill mode like in the series? <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/70.231.228.0|70.231.228.0]] ([[User talk:70.231.228.0|talk]]) 09:20, 12 May 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

No, they're not, and the novel reflects this. The first few games in the series (IIRC - the only one I've played recently was Raven Shield, and I know for certain that this was at least true for that game) also allowed you the option to subdue, rather than kill the targets. They would surrender if you scared them enough, injured them, ect... Vegas and Vegas 2 are much more action-oriented and realism-lacking, so it's no surprise that they also do away with this option. That said, there never really was any incentive to USE the subdue option in the earlier games, so it wasn't all that great.

|||
If this going to stay in the article can someone at least allow my addition to the section of "Warning: This section contains a plot spoiler." to remain as it has been taken out. |
|||
I and other people I know read about games before we buy them and in less one buys it on the day of release or even if they do buy the game on the day of release but the game was released earlier say in the USA, and someone has posted the end of the game ruining the big twist, as this does it spoils the game.

>:( I second this. I came here because I just got done with R6:LV and didn't expect an LV2 spoiler in a section about references to other games, so that's really quite frustrating.

We cant be the only two that didnt expect a spoiler to be in this page, or even the lack of warning about one! [[User:Carbon-Q|Carbon-Q]] ([[User talk:Carbon-Q|talk]]) 12:59, 28 April 2008 (UTC) |

::Spoiler warnings aren't considered necessary (see [[WP:SPOILER]]), but considering that the section referenced isn't supposed to be plot-related, I've removed the spoiler. It wasn't really necessary to the section. --[[User:Clpo13|clpo13]]<sub>([[User_talk:Clpo13|talk]])</sub> 17:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC) |
