Phantom Doctrine Review (TSA)

If ever Sam Fisher and a Sectoid’s eyes met across a crowded room, if they were to have a few drinks, exchange phone numbers, go out on some dates, find a place together, declare their love for one another and finally have a baby, then that sprog would be named Phantom Doctrine. It’s an odd name and that kid would get bullied at school a lot, but my point is that Phantom Doctrine plays a lot like a cross between XCOM: Enemy Unknown and Splinter Cell. Such a lazy comparison does it a disservice though, as Phantom Doctrine achieves enough on its own merits to stand alone from these titans of the videogame world.
