When Ubisoft didn't show Splinter Cell: Conviction at its last event, people worried a little about how the game might be doing. Fear not - the game's doing great. So great, they say, that Ubisoft just decided it'd be better off releasing it as part of its "2009-2010" lineup instead of in this year's fiscal fourth quarter. You know, to "bolster" next year, as the company said in its fiscal first quarter results statement.
Signs at Ubidays seemed to suggest that the game was undergoing a reworking, though Ubisoft's reps were specifically vague on details. We also heard that a "way too egotistical" Michael Ironside would no longer be returning as the voice of Sam Fisher.
Microsoft presented a new batch of Xbox 360 games that received Xbox One X enhancements via Xbox One backward compatibility, and here you can watch how they run.
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.
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
Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne
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.
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.
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
I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable
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.
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.
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!
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
Splinter cell conviction is great, vf 5 is fun. Haven't played the other two so I'm excited to try them out.
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.
Now that there's gamepass, expect bugger AAA to have priority in that, more money for both the dev and Ms more likely
Vf5 fs is the best fighting game of all time abd backwards compatible, so it is a huge win in my book.
No these are pretty awful. Virtua Fighter is great and so is Splinter Cell but those are 360 titles.
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."
Don't confuse the Xbox gamers. They have enough problems to deal with... : P'
No confusion at all. Just another game added to the list if anyone gets nostalgic.
"new"? an "old" Tom Clancy Adventure can be enjoyed on xbox one due to back capat is worth the return"
*Fixed*
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
The Bots used to say
Wait B3YOND
Now its turned a full 360
Wait for Anything Get Nothing !!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA
The game was scrapped and back to the drawing board. They just dont have the GUTS to admit it.
Even now, their game couldnt even rival 5% of the super triple A that is Metal Gear.
They scratched the game and took it back to the drawing boards. Its pretty clear now, they have been working on this game for over 3 years and have nothing to show for it...MGS4 wasnt even released and they already had to scratch it. Sad, isnt it.
Should have produced the game on the PS3 and kept your mouths shut Ubi. Yes, folks. These were the guys who said that Naruto 360 is not possible on the PS3 and that PS3 cant run Splinter Cell or do any AI.
Look who is crying now. MGS4 shiat ALL OVER IT. These guys sure are Ubisofts finest rofl.
Naruto couldnt be done on the PS3 right? If youre a shiatty developer with no real skills, you should just keep your mouth shut next time.
PS3 cant do Splinter Cell AI, guys. LOL.

"So, Conviction is confirmed for PC and Xbox 360. But what about the other consoles? Double Agent was a 360 exclusive for a whole week. On this issue, Danny could give us a firm answer. “It’s NEVER gonna come out on the PS3 or the Wii.” It’s a logical decision. Nintendo’s console simply doesn’t have the graphical horsepower, and he candidly told us how the PS3 can’t handle AI nearly as well as the 360."
First Alan Wake,then Halo Wars and now Splinter Cell too?This sucks
Edit:*sobs in the corner*
LOL
