then im starvin for more games like demons souls, heavy rain, turok, timesplitters, shadowman.

ALLWRONG4311d ago

What does any of that have to do with Splinter Cell? I can't be the only one here to notice an "off topic" game list.

Heartnet4311d ago

It has something to do with what ubisoft say :S which is what this whole article is about

ALLWRONG4311d ago

Show me where UBI mentions any of those games http://www.gamereactor.eu/n... They don't talk about anything other than Splinter Cell. Well?

I'll wait

omi25p4311d ago

NO. Im "hungry" For a Real Stealth game like Splinter Cell Chaos Theory. Not some Jason Bourne Crap.

HarryMasonHerpderp4311d ago

The old games were amazing, the best stealth games around at the time in my opinion.
This new game looks boring...
Have they changed Sam's voice too?

Spydiggity4311d ago (Edited 4311d ago )

yes, there is no way that is michael ironside. very disappointing. though i remember he didn't really wanna do the last one either.

i think the game looks fun though. i really enjoyed conviction.

TheFirstClassic4311d ago

Yeah I saw some gameplay of the old ones and I plan to get the hd trilogy. Looks a lot better than the newer splinter cell tbh.

GuyThatPlaysGames4311d ago

That's why I'm glad I have the Splinter Cell Trilogy. That's when stealth games were truly stealth.

bahabeast4311d ago

i wana play it even though we could realli use a old style splinter cell game ubisoft notice that action packed is the way to make the money, call of duty, gears of war, halo, uncharted, assasin creed, etc. all of highest selling games are action packed

modesign4311d ago

lets wait and see what the sales say about gamers hunger levels.

OneAboveAll4311d ago

Sick and tired of Tom Clancy games...

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - A Decade in the Shadows

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell has been out of action for a decade, so it's time to look back at 2013's Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

CoNn3rB240d ago

Sam Fisher is evidently the most skilled stealth operative because no-one has seen him in his own game for years

kevco33240d ago

10 years, in fact. He must be, like, 60 by now?

phoenixwing240d ago (Edited 240d ago )

why make an inspired game that takes effort when you can half ass it with multiplayer gaas games and filler filled assassins creed games?

That question up there is the reason you don't see splinter cell games

zarbor240d ago

Yup, another example that Ubisoft has no idea what they are doing.

MIDGETonSTILTS17240d ago

The entire mark and execute system belonged in another game.

It’s cool, but the polar opposite to how Sam Fisher initially handled.

The original trilogy made shooting very, very difficult, yet a viable option, which ultimately motivates stealth.

The mark/execute system makes shooting stupid easy, to the point of why would you even bother trying stealth as an alternative?

FYouDad240d ago

Because Ghost is the method fans of the series actually prefer? IMark and execute is never forced upon the player you liiterally never have to bother using it even once throughout Blacklist.

Tody_ZA240d ago

The sad part is that I actually really enjoyed the last game, Blacklist. It may have lacked the iconic voice but the gameplay was excellent, and blended stealth, action and a mix really great compared to most games, where none of the three options felt like the wrong way to play. I really hope they either produce a remake of the original game or a proper sequel.

Rikimaru-00240d ago

Isn't UBI Soft remaking splinter cell.

Sam Fisher Deserves Better

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "Ubisoft, we need to chat. Please, have a seat. Thanks. Ok, so I think you know why you’re here. No it has nothing to do with all those game delays, we’ll talk about that later. What? No it’s not about the Skulls & Bones and Beyond Good & Evil 2 falling off the face of the Earth, just listen. We need to talk about Splinter Cell. Don’t give me that look, you know this conversation needs to happen. The way you’ve treated the series, its fans and poor Sam Fisher himself is sad, infuriating and just plain disappointing and it needs to stop."

The Fish!!!

I'd love to see a remastered edition of those games as well as something new. It's about time.

UltraNova1480d ago

MGS is done, at least as we know it so it's now or never Ubi, give Fisher the reboot it deserves. And for Gods sake, don't you dare turn Splinter Cell into another Division/Ghost reckon online abomination instead of a SP focused steath action game!

Psychonaut851480d ago

You know they will though. This is Ubisoft we’re talking about

zachyBROosevelt1480d ago (Edited 1480d ago )

I would love a new splinter cell, maybe even a reboot at this point. Sam Fisher deserves it

Profchaos1480d ago

I think reboot the entire franchise the games were great but every time they try to make him human like a father or something it comes of as unbelievable

hiawa231480d ago

They added damn near every SC game to Xbox1X back compat enahnced list. That is a lot of Sam enhanced and I am loving it, but Sam deserves a new next gen game.
