    R6: Vegas/GRAW question

    I'm not very good at shooters, but I do enjoy them. I want to give Vegas or GRAW a shot, but are they hard to pick up and just play? I don't mind it taking some time to get used to it, I just don't want to get it if it's going to take me a LONG time to get the hang of. Oh and I probably won't do that much Multiplayer with either game, if that changes anything. So which game would probably be best for me? Thanks.

    The toughest obstacle to overcome is map knowledge. The veterans know where all of the key sniping, or attacking, points are. You'll find yourself getting picked off a lot in certain areas because a veteran of the game is locked in on it. Other than that, it's your typical FPS. Controls are easy to learn, and the game modes keep things fresh and fun.

      I take it this is for Vegas? I changed the thread a bit because I've been thinking about GRAW, also. Thanks though.

        Well with the new coming out in around 2 months, would you really want to buy the game for full price only to have the new one drop a week later?

          What Sully said regarding map knowledge actually applies to both games but more so on Vegas. As far as the OS crowd goes, Vegas is getting the brunt of play time. GRAW is virtually non-existent online for OS guys, well at least the guys who post in this thread. Can't speak for the whole OS community of course. Still yet GRAW is a great game but we just moved on to greener pastures.....LOL

          The controls are easy to pick up for both games. GRAW has much bigger maps than Vegas, but the online and single player gameplay in Vegas is very addictive. The computer enemy AI in Vegas is the best out there for any 360 game.

          Hope this helps

            I was planning on renting one. I know, I know. I could rent both. But I only have my one free rental per month at BlockBuster.

              True, GRAW 2 looks to blow the first GRAW out of the water !!!! It's scheduled for sometime in March.

              One last thing about Vegas, they are releasing some DLC in March which will include some new game types and 10 maps - - - - LONG LIVE VEGAS !!!

                Rent Vegas. Play with us. You'll end up purchasing it.

                Hold off on GRAW until GRAW 2 releases.

                  I'm going to do that. Just about to head down to BB before I settle in for the game tonight.

                    Get Vegas dude... much more pick-up-and-play than GRAW, especially if you're looking more for a single player experience...

                      I agree, Vegas is a much better buy, than GRAW. I enjoyed GRAW alot last year, but I've enjoyed Vegas alot more. Besides, GRAW2 is coming out in a month, so I'd wait on it.
