With the PC version of the latest installment of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow 6 series now available for purchase Vegas 2 has a lot of pressure to deliver after a largely failed PC release of the first iteration. From installation, performance, game-play and massive server problems that weren’t remedied in time R6V1 PC ended up dropping in to the bargain bins fairly quickly. Meanwhile the console fan base grew and gained remarkable expertise within what proved to be a highly enjoyable and competent arena, easily putting the title in to being one of the best FPS for consoles ever released. Significant advertising and media coverage have probably made most avid gamers familiar with the type of gaming experience this offers not to mention that console gamers have already been playing this for about a month – but will they do it right on the PC this time?

Only 18 weeks from now Multiplay launches what promises to be the UKs largest LAN ever from August 8th to August 11th 2008 in Stoneleigh Park.

A great time is guaranteed for all, with seats selling out rapidly now is the time to get yourself registered and reserve a spot! Our forums have been bursting with discussion on the subject, so if you want to get on board please hurry up!
