Kevin Roberson writes: "The phrase “wagging the dog” ceases to be adequate here. While Splinter Cell may have originally been based on Tom Clancy novels, the novels are now produced to match game quotas, even though the games are trying to make themselves more like books with walls of flying text everywhere. It’s sort of like a gyroscope constructed entirely of interconnected dog tails with a live Chihuahua at the center."
Ubisoft has updated their Online Services Masterlist with 8 older titles that will be losing online features as of May 22nd, 2021.
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.
I would love a new splinter cell, maybe even a reboot at this point. Sam Fisher deserves it
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
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.
On this episode of the Left Behind Game Club, Moe and Jacob played Splinter Cell: Conviction and give their best Michael Ironside impressions, use some cool gadgets and mark & exécute their enemies.

i forgot about this game. Doesnt matter now but ok review, i played it on my PC. It was good but felt something was missing. i would say 4/5 is good
my only complaints are that the story wasn't that great, the "flashback" level was incredibly ill advised and the third echelon agents should have used sam's own tricks against him, i thought they were supposed to be the best. how intense would that be with other agents shooting out the lights and whatnot?
other than those issues i thought this was the best splinter cell by far. i own all the others but the action always felt too stiff for my taste. i like that the character is genuinely progressing and the gameplay elements they added are a ton of fun. i'd give it at least an 8, 8.5.
2/5? Really? Same as they gave Alpha Protocol. To each his own I guess.
Execute feature is pretty imbalance.
AI are pretty dumb.
Most of the time you'll be playing in Black and White.
Every enemy can be killed in one shot by a pistol.
+Coop is pretty nice.
6/10 for me.

It would be foolish of them to release it a year later , with all the games that are coming ,
It did't sell that well on the xbox even as an exclusief , so i don't think it would do that great on the ps3 either and certainly not after a year .
Don't get me wrong I'm not bashing the game , i'm a big splinter cell fan myself.
