Will there be a spectator mode? (PC and Xbox)
No.

On a related note, did any of the other Splinter Cell games have an extensive multiplayer? I'm pretty new to the series.

"did any of the other Splinter Cell games have an extensive multiplayer?"
Oh, God no. And I hope they don't give us this list of multiplayer modes like MGS4, after all this isn't Ghost Recon. Just give us enough stealth modes, polished & balanced and it should be enough.

Arnon5673d ago

I would honestly just be fine with a 1v1 online, considering this is heavily stealth based.

KingKionic 5673d ago

Im pretty sure they`ve learned from chaos theory .

If multiplayer is like that...it`s all good .

Christopher5673d ago

Player hosted games will only lead ISPs to the need to hike prices, limit bandwidth, or both. This means players will be paying more to game in the end which will cut into their ability to play multiplayer games, which means less people will buy multiplayer games as a whole.

So, while they may be saving some money in the short run, in the long run they'll lose out on more money.

Is it like spy vs mercs again or is it just deathmatch? Or haven't they done the spys vs mercs since the second one?

Leord5673d ago

Matchmaking sounds good...

Redrudy5673d ago

Sounds standard to me. Nothing stands out.

Dorjan5673d ago

spy vs spy! (remember that old game?)

whothedog5673d ago

That would be funny if that was the multiplayer haha

Nothing wrong with more games. As someone who just fundamentally hates xbox, I am pretty jelly that xbox gamers get real BC.

Finally ninja gaiden 2 is BC, I've been waiting on this since they announced BC.

Bane352266d ago (Edited 2266d ago )

Yeah i thought ninja gaiden was gonna get remaster because it wasnt announced for backwards compatible til just now tho i would've been up for joy if they announced max payne 3 for backwards compatible today instead

hiawa232266d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane352266d ago (Edited 2266d ago )

@hiawa23 i think R* has plans to remaster MP3 at this point

Z5012266d ago

You couldn't play your copy of NG2 before this announcement?

Bane352266d ago (Edited 2266d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19932266d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5012266d ago

Kept your game, but no console to play it on?
No one sells 360's anymore?

Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne

Gwiz2266d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin2266d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

2266d ago
Movefasta19932266d ago

facts, once you beat a souls game and do ng plus, you have the game downloaded. Once you return to ng1 and 2 you still can get your ass handed to you lol, the regular enemies are a threat, still attacking even when they are on the ground dismembered.

Gaming4Life19812266d ago

Agreed dark souls, bloodborne, and sekiro are overhyped games and dont compare to ninja gaiden 1 & , ninja gaiden 3 sucks.

What does BB have to do with NG2?
Why not insert Contra Shattered Soldier while you're at it.

bluebenjamin2266d ago

Ninja gaiden was once considered one of the hardest games ninja gaiden 2 has rpg elements so does bloodborn they have similar combat but ninja gaiden 2 just looks better doing it plus its fast pace and flashy combos removing limbs of foes remember 360 put more enemies on screen than ps3 on this game 360 had more dismemberment of limbs than the ps3 vs.360 had a better gpu but ps3 still to this day has an awesome cpu the ps3 had the prettiest ninja gaiden because of native 720 p while 360 pushed 640p now the one X has both higher rez and 360 style dismemberment But Ok for you contra ps2 version and nes

Movefasta19932266d ago

I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable

Z5012266d ago

Again. Why'd you pick BB?
Ninja Gaiden has ninja dog mode = easy
NG2 has a jump and block button
BB has none of those.

You could've picked a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta game. They're more similar to NG2 than BB.

What does PS3 have to do with this announcement? Your insecurities are showing.

Gaming4Life19812266d ago

I think they are being compared because of difficulty but I dont even think that is comparable imo. Ninja gaiden games are better though that's just facts.

Hungryalpaca2266d ago

And Forza is Better than MARIO Kart!!!!!

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin2266d ago

No Mario Kart is the best racer ever almost anyone can play

timotim2266d ago (Edited 2266d ago )

Amazing news! NG2!?!? Three Splinter Cell games!!! Fable 2&3 (the first is already enhanced)!!! This is what separates Microsoft's version of BC from others...its that they enhance both the performance and visual quality of these titles to keep them current in a lot of cases, instead of playing them exactly how they played and performed back in the day. Whats even better...I don't need to do ANYTHING but download the new patch...amazing.👏

Keep it coming Xbox!

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for July 2018 any good?

Neil writes: "Every single month we hear the same old thing about the Xbox Games With Gold titles. "We don't want that rubbish - we want decent games, we want AAA blockbusters, we want something different". Well, the free Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles being given away during the month of July pretty much tick those boxes. What's the chances there will still be complaints?"

Tom clancy and virtua fighter are great death sqaured is pretty cool idk about assualt

lxeasy2556d ago

Splinter cell conviction is great, vf 5 is fun. Haven't played the other two so I'm excited to try them out.

ApexWolf222556d ago

Great month for 360 titles, X1 titles remind me of early days when all they gave away were indies, I hope they dont start doing that again.

AG1002556d ago

at least you can play the 360 games on xb1 too lol

Goldby2555d ago

Now that there's gamepass, expect bugger AAA to have priority in that, more money for both the dev and Ms more likely

yomfweeee2556d ago

I though Plus was lackluster this month. Gold is way worse.

BQ322556d ago

Vf5 fs is the best fighting game of all time abd backwards compatible, so it is a huge win in my book.

annoyedgamer2556d ago

No these are pretty awful. Virtua Fighter is great and so is Splinter Cell but those are 360 titles.

lxeasy2556d ago

so what if there 360 titles it's still awesome

A new Tom Clancy adventure can be enjoyed on Xbox One due to Back Compat – Is it worth the return?

Carlos writes: "Xbox Backwards Compatibility has shown a strong start to 2018 with a number of top titles being made available to play on Xbox One, but whilst this week doesn’t bring quite as many new arrivals as the past few weeks, there is still one addition for us to get stuck into once more... and it’s one that’s sure to prove a popular addition."

TheRealHeisenberg2696d ago

No confusion at all. Just another game added to the list if anyone gets nostalgic.

Vectrexer2695d ago

Are we confused? We get games that we've been enjoyed before at no cost to us!

C-H-E-F2696d ago
