Losing Michael Ironside As Sam Fisher Doesn't Hurt Splinter Cell: Blacklist

GR: "By trimming the fat, Ubisoft takes Splinter Cell back to its roots in sandbox stealth play and globe-trotting espionage."

Agreed. I liked Conviction but it seemed kind of held back by the story/Sam Fisher's age.

acharlez3896d ago

Out with the old.

In with the new.

Sev3896d ago

Crazy how little buzz there is for Splinter Cell. There was once a time when it was a AAA release and people went nuts for it. Shame that a series can fall so far from the top.

dbjj120883896d ago

It didn't help that the last game was exclusive to Xbox 360.

cunnilumpkin3895d ago

actually it was on pc as well

and it was much better on pc, way better visuals, ZERO jaggies, 60 frames per second, no awful textures, no ugly screen tearing, better/more control options (splinter cell games play better with kb/m, can access all gadgets with the touch of a button over fumbling through menus)

just like this one is going to destroy the console versions on pc

TrendyGamers3896d ago

Seems like Saints Row 4 is getting more pre-release attention.

Wedge193896d ago

I didn't even realize that this was coming so soon! I thought it was further away. Like others are saying, sad the amount of pre-release attention that is being diverted from it. Seems like it will be a good game.

AcesHigh2913896d ago

People getting too attached to a voice actor? You don't say.

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

kevco33241d ago

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

phoenixwing241d ago (Edited 241d 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

zarbor241d ago

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

MIDGETonSTILTS17241d 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_ZA241d 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-00241d 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.
