Rainbow Six: Siege - 10 Things It'll Do Better Than Call Of Duty

10. Depict Special Forces Properly

If your knowledge of the world's most skilled military operators came from Call of Duty, you'd be forgiven for thinking they were all caricatures of 80s machismo loaded with testosterone and accents that would make even Arnie blush. You'll be happy to hear then, that Rainbow's depiction is anything but this. In his writings, Tom Clancy was not only able to craft tales of suspense that provided social commentary on the post Cold War era, but also to depict soldiers in a very human way (as demonstrated immaculately by 'A Clear And Present Danger'). Though the game adaptations have fumbled in their attempts to emulate this at times, the page-to-screen transition has largely been painless - as reflected by the emotive narratives of characters like Sam Fisher, Scott Mitchell, and Logan Keller. All these characters have human voices, and personality shines above and beyond the blood and bullets in every scene. Rainbow at its core is about the special forces of the United Nations coming together to tackle extraordinary threats. British, Americans, Germans, South Koreans and many more comprise its ranks - and it's fantastic to see a depiction of cooperation that's very sadly lacking in the real UN. It's not Anglo-Centric and it never will be, and that's part of why it's so special. Not much is really known of Siege's campaign as of yet, but expect it to carry a story that will very much be worthy of recognition.
