Tom Clancy's legacy in books and film goes without question, but there's another medium where the author's reach can't be overlooked: video games.
In the mid-to-late 2000s, Tom Clancy dominated modern military gaming. With a new Splinter Cell coming, it's worth revisiting the series' golden age.
Love Rainbow Six Vegas, my Resistance Fall of Man clan moved to that game and had a blast.
IGN: We had a chance to see what it looks like up close, and we can’t wait to tell you more.
If Ubisoft is unable to come with a Splinter Cell sequel, they can at least try a Splinter Cell Reboot.
Or at least Splinter Cell 1 Remake for 'eff sakes.
Do you know what Splintercell Essentials was? It was a PSP exclusive SC game never put on any other console. It was a decent SC game. They need to remaster it for current consoles. The Playstation Portable is a old handheld. It's time this exclusive psp SC gets Remastered with better controls

I know what SC Essentials was. But its way past its time for it to be remastered. The PSP games that needed remastering got remastered for the PS3 or 360.
I doubt UbiSoft'll go back to retouch handheld games instead of their mainline titles. They'd rather put effort on Pandora Tomorrow or Chaos Theory instead.
The PSP games that needed remastering got remastered for 360 and ps3? I didn't realize that Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core got remastered. When did that psp game get remastered?
@autobotban
"needed remastering" ~ as in publisher deemed those fit for remastering. I didn't say all PSP titles got remastered.
Ain't saying Essentials is an underwhelming game.
Similarly, I really wanted MGS Peace Walker for the home consoles and well, it got remastered by BluePoint for PS3/X360 a year later.
Doubt they would remaster a game halfway through the series. From memory, many of the missions were from previous games anyway.
What am I saying? Expecting a new/remastered splinter cell is a stretch. It’s probably that multiplayer crossover game that was rumoured a couple of months back.
Based on this teaser it's some kind of division spin-off maybe. You can see the rogue icon at the 5 second mark but this game looks like a CoD knockoff and possibly f2p?
The new Ghost Recon Breakpoint survival mechanics are certainly intruiging, but do they make nice with the rest of the Ubisoft formula?
Ahhh Rainbow Six on N64... Such good memories... I remember renting that from Blockbuster back in the day on a whim. My cousin and I played the hell out of it.
