Between the smooth graphics, fun aiming controls, and the immersive tactical team gameplay, I'd highly recommend Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard.

For the most part it's a well-made shooter with a high-quality campaign, but players might want to forego playing online until the development team irons some of the kinks out.

This is a good installment in the series, well-optimized for Apple devices. In spite of a multiplayer mode than only works well with very good connections, this is a good game if you can get used to the controls.

Really sets the standard to what an iOS game should be. The first person shooter gameplay and astounding graphics are just incredible. The only problem is the repetitive missions and (at times) slow gunplay. Otherwise, this is a must-buy for all iOS gamers.

Sure, it's not all that different from the N.O.V.A.'s or the Modern Combats, and it would be nice to see Gameloft stretch themselves a little more in a future FPS. But no other company out there makes iPhone FPSes as big or exciting as Gameloft. If you want a tactical shooter in your pocket, you've come to the right place.

If you are looking for something new away from the N.O.V.A series, this is a great contender for your collection.

While Rainbow Six plays and controls like most other Gameloft shooters, the additional of strategic maneuvers and co-op multiplayer help to separate it from the pack and give it an identity all its own.

It can be hard to master, and what Rainbow Six game isn't?, but once you get into a few multi-player bouts you'll get a good and solid multi-player experience, it's just not quite great.

The cluttered controls and odd intelligence of both enemies and teammates throws a little cold water on the game.

Shadow Vanguard, despite all its bells and whistles, proves to be a lacklustre affair, to be endured rather than enjoyed. Its initial showy promise is just a facade. Move along, there's nothing more to see here.
