X3F TV -- Points>Life: Fire It Up!
Each week, X3F tips gamers to the tricks of the trade of Achievement hording in Points>Life. Every week a new achievement is unlocked to help you continue your unhealthy obsession with the Xbox 360 meta-game.
This week in Points>Life my unhealthy obsession with CBS' The Unit continues as I picked up Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and was told of a glitch that made ranking up a lot easier. While a few videos have been released with this information, we've collected some of the best practices and uses for the trick in one video.
One thing we need to stress with this glitch is updating Rainbow Six Vegas 2 patches the exploit. There is a way around that, but we're not recommending that. That's what the comments are for!
Also, watch The Unit.

Yeah, I guess you guys don't condone "cheating". Well, when it comes to the sweet cheevos, I say do what needs to be done.
Delete your Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Update, then play the game offline. If you are patient, and like shooting in the same spot... OVER, and OVER, and OVER again. You can rank up pretty fast. I could only stand this for about 20,000 EXP points (just enough to grab one ch33v0).

Glitching Cheevos? For shame x3f for shame....
crock @ May 20th 2008 4:27PM
You made a mistake. What you should have done is not concentrated on his glitching, but the fact that he said he was obsessed with the "unit". *snicker*

The Unit is awesome.
Zoot Suit Jedi @ May 20th 2008 9:45PM
Xav, I think he was talking about THE unit and not "The Unit."
In which case, alot of what I have said over the past few years, and most recently in this post, take on a COMPLETELY new meaning.
Xav de Matos @ May 20th 2008 9:48PM
Ah. Damn kids!
Xav de Matos @ May 20th 2008 4:24PM
This is the third glitch we've showcased.
Keep up sir!

There is no shame in the harvest of cheevos. These are quick and dirty, I think that's the whole point.

Does anyone ever play this game? Feels like COD4 dated it pretty hard.
SovietSpartan @ May 20th 2008 6:27PM
COD is nothing like this game. Its alot of fun if you like to play tactically with your friends. I play airsoft on a team and we usually apply rl tactics to our gameplay. Also, there's the bonus, of being able to select guns and not have to sell out a few hundred dollars for the rl replica, same with the armor. What I am trying to say, if you like airsoft or shit even owning real assault weapons and real armor, you will love this game. COD4 is cool too, but its different... hardcore search and destroy would be the most similar to RS6V2.

The Unit is effin awesome, but the new theme song is total garbage. Snake Doc FTW.
Xav de Matos @ May 20th 2008 9:15PM
Great news!
The Unit will be back for another season. CBS announced it two days ago!
duzzyman @ May 20th 2008 9:29PM
Not to hijack the topic but I really Really hope CBS brings The Unit back. Damn good show than and NCIS.

X3F is all up on the old today.
Xav de Matos @ May 21st 2008 8:05AM
Uh, we've been doing the same thing (giving older tips) for this segment for the last 5 weeks. But thanks for that comment, I guess.
Also, if you read the post and watch the video I do say it's old. So, guess I beat you to the hate.

Thankfully, I haven't played R6V2 in like a month... so it just asked me to patch today. DECLINED - just put tape on the LT and switched the input source back to my computer so I can rank up while playing the PC version for real :P
