So many leaks come from France now. They tend to be true too lately.

Jadedz4035d ago

I'm glad Ubisoft's supporting the Wii U. They haven't released everything for the console (Far Cry), though they are showing the most enthusiam out of the rest of the 3rd party publishers launching software on the system.

PopRocks3594035d ago

Oh wow. A third party release that isn't old. Kind of sad that I have to say "Oh wow" to that.

Jek_Porkins4035d ago

This is actually big news, cant help but think the new Tomb Raider might have made its mark if it released on Wii U as well. There is literally no reason not to release these games on Wii U.

Now, if Nintendo would just add an "accomplishment" system...

StrongMan4035d ago (Edited 4035d ago )

How is this "big news"? Identical versions of this game will release on the 7 year old PS3 and 8 year old Xbox. Besides, a lot of fanboys from your camp were raving about Conviction but none of you bought Conviction and since Blacklist is multi plat none of you seem interested in Blacklist. Funny that.

Whymii4035d ago

What??? If you read some of the words together they makes sense, but as whole you're on another planet. Are you for or against the game on the wii u and what does that have to do with PS360s? Also, what are you going on about conviction? I'm sure you know what you're saying at least.

mcstorm4035d ago

Its big news as it means it can be bought on the WiiU as well as the other 2.

The more 3rd party games the WiiU gets the better. Its been noted by a lot of people on here that the WiiU is lacking 3rd party support so anything that comes is big news.

Also if its not big news then why have you clicked on the link?

Jek_Porkins4035d ago

I bought Conviction, not only that but it sold well overall and scored well on Metacritic, which seems to be the only things you care about anyway.

I had fun with the game, one of the best graphical games I've played.

bitboi4035d ago

This game could def' have some cool gamepad intergration, especially with the types of gadgets Sam Fisher uses.

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.

CoNn3rB248d ago

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

kevco33248d ago

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

phoenixwing248d ago (Edited 248d 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

zarbor247d ago

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

MIDGETonSTILTS17247d 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?

FYouDad247d 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_ZA247d 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-00247d 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.

UltraNova1487d 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!

Psychonaut851487d ago

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

zachyBROosevelt1487d ago (Edited 1487d ago )

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

Profchaos1487d 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

hiawa231487d 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.
