What Happened to the Sam Fisher I Knew and Loved?

Planet Ivy: With the newest Splinter Cell game coming out later this year it’s interesting to see how the game play has changed since its beginnings, over ten years ago. For anyone unaware of the series, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell follows the activity of Sam Fisher, top NSA operative. So far the story has spanned seven games including the newest offering, Blacklist, which will be on sale in August this year.

One of the best game franchises ever, never got old for me

gorillabiscuits4042d ago

I don't know, I actually thought the games got weaker and they ran out of fresh ideas and the franchise is dragging now a bit..

moviewatcher4042d ago

Rubbish- I think it's one of the few series of games which has retained a level of quality even to this day

"What Happened to the Sam Fisher I Knew and Loved?"

xbox happened.......

Campy da Camper4041d ago

@movie watcher...I respectfully disagree. Chaos Theory was head and shoulders above the last installment. Even tops double agent. Some of the best mp I have ever played was spies vs merc.

moviewatcher4042d ago

Yes! I love each instalment. I still love Sam Fisher, the brute

gorillabiscuits4042d ago

ha. Is looking very tired these days..

LackTrue4K4042d ago

Regardless, Tom Clancy has maintained this game series better then it has with Ghost recon!! I just hope they too don't end the same.

pete0074042d ago

100% with you gymboy with a broken tooth!! to those who´re not pleased with yhe console version, try a hi end PC and you´ll see a complete different experience. if you cant afford one, i m selling my config. it runs everything fullhd, max settings 60 fps.

the hd collection is all that was good, the rest not so much.

gorillabiscuits4042d ago

I like the ideas, but generally they haven't been executed all that well

moviewatcher4042d ago

Yeah, a lot of the best of SC. I have spent too many hours on this game...

appleandroid4042d ago

@tentonsoftube- You're right, it sucked, haha. Still a great game though

e-p-ayeaH4042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

Looking forward fro SC: Blacklist the gameplay videos show promise.

StrongMan4042d ago

Double Agent and Conviction sucked.

coolbeans4042d ago (Edited 4042d ago )

Enjoyment of Double Agent varied to me because of the difference between last-gen/this-gen versions. I like sleuthing around JBA HQ in plain clothes (360's version), but it's a shame that story-based co-op wasn't on all versions.

For Conviction: That felt like a great shot in the arm for the series (conceptually)...just executed too heavily on action imo.

Campy da Camper4041d ago

Bingo. I liked the sneaking around in double agent, too. The last one was OK but that auto take down stuff has got to go.

This is a huge release being treated like a patch update but really it’s a monster in disguise…Bethesda being Bethesda, no actual release times or pre load available or file size info, sigh. All that said, clearing space on the SSD and putting the PS5 in rest mode while at work so I can play later, fully expecting snail download speeds as millions bang on their servers.

Simundo15m ago

It just popped up on the UK PSN store as a native PS5 download of 56 gigs. I had the PS4 version installed in case it just patched that but it is it's own download.

Not sure if that download includes the DLC's though which I own, think it's just the base game. At the moment there's no separate PS5 DLC download options. But might just take a bit for it to be added.

Review - A Difficult Game About Climbing (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Leo Faria: "A Difficult Game About Climbing is obviously frustrating, and I don’t exactly think it’s a fun pasttime, but it’s exponentially more enjoyable than the horrendous Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy. It’s actually beatable with enough trial and error. Its mechanics, whilst not exactly polished to the brim, work as intended, with no intentional input lag. It’s still clearly meant for Let’s Play youtubers to film themselves losing their minds over it, but it can still be a passable challenge if you’re up for the task."
