Once online, players of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas will be able to push the customization by putting his or her own face on the character using Xbox Live Vision. In just two simple steps, a head-on photo and a profile photo taken with Xbox Live Vision, gamers can create a custom, virtual “head” for the character that looks exactly like the actual gamer. Once the custom head is completed, players can further customize their online character by choosing weapons, clothing, camouflage and body armor.
