Alright, we're talking about Rainbow Six Vegas controls. Your left thumb stick's going to be forward, back, straiff right and straiff left. The right thumb stick is the direction you look. You can go up, right, left, down, however you want to do it. That's just, basically, how you move. The right thumb stick, you won't move forward or backwards with your feet, you'll just look. R1 is going to be our shoot. R2 is our grenade button. Circle, if you hold it down, you can switch to night vision or you can switch to thermal and turn it off. You hold it down to switch to night or to thermal. And your square button is going to be your silencer. Hit the the left on the directional pad, or you can hold square down and change your rate of fire. I'm going to switch to one bullet, here. Your triangle button is going to be your weapon select. Up changes your primary weapon. Right now we have our sub machine gun, which is good, that's what we want. Or, you could change to incendiaries for your R2 button by going right or left on your directional pad while holding down triangle. And, your X button is going to, since I have a team with me, my X button is going to move my team. And, they are going to go ahead and move there. And we just move them around and that's the basic controls the game. Our thumb stick zooms in with your gun; that's going to be pretty important. L1 is the button that gets you up on the walls and around corners. You can hold L1. If you just hold it, if you just hold L1 you'll be just sitting at the wall and if you click your thumb stick either way, you pop out. Then you can fire, you can throw a grenade, or whatever you got to do. And, those are, basically, the controls that you really need for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas."
