With less skulking and a whole lot more shooting, Crush! Frag! Destroy! reviewer Sage Knox expresses his disappointment in Spliter Cell's gameplay shift.
"Back from a tumultuous slumber, the stealthy panther that is Sam Fisher has risen from the ashes for Splinter Cell: Conviction. Originally announced in 2007 as a hobo simulator, Sam’s new adventure disembarks from the classic “sneak-and-evade” gameplay of old and boasts a “sneak-and-destroy” focus.
My constant struggle with Conviction’s new style has hampered my ability to adequately enjoy the game as others have. When SC:C opens, it’s quite apparent that the series’ constant option to exclusively use stealth doesn’t apply anymore. Within the first 30 seconds of player-controlled action you’re tasked with gunning down a couple of unaware guards. Conviction isn’t the traditional stealth-action game: it’s a sneaky third-person shooter and it doesn’t hide it."

Star Wars Outlawa has some real potential. I loved the Fallen Order games but the abundant timed jumps at times took me out of the narrative as they could be come frustrating. The branching options and status with factions looks great.
Prince of Persia 2026…REALLY? And that’s all they had for us…a candle.
Jesus. Imagine if they didn’t give it to a shitty support studio and tried to sell us a sloppy remake years ago
Now we have (no hate on quality here) two PoP games no one asked for. We could have been anticipating a Warrior Within remake by now.
No surprises just updates on existing games & games that have already been announced. A lame show.
Get a fresh look at Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and more on June 10.
Assassin's Creed Hexe is what I wanna hear about most. Yes I wanna play as a witch with magic during the 16 century witch trials in Germany (as per rumors). Sign me up
Hopefully gameplay of ac shadows or star wars outlaws, if they finally announce the new far cry I'm definitely getting that, far cry still fun af and gorgeous games, yeah ubisoft has their faults but atleast they're not copying souls like games their titles still have identity
I'm going to be an outlier amongst the rest of these comments.... give us something NEW! I'm pretty burnt out on Ubisoft franchises, unless you're giving us a new Rayman game!
*Edit - imagine what they could do with a Rayman 3D game in this day and age. I say now is the time to revisit the series.
