SC:Blacklist was a bit of a disappointment, first of all the gameplay just didnt sit well and at some places force you to run and gun, secondly the voice acting, I know Michael Ironside is getting along in years but why did they not make Sam Fisher head of 4th Echelon and have him give the orders and mission to a new character instead of having a new voice actor. That being said Blacklist wasnt bad at all but it most certainly is not Chaos Theory.

I'm playing blacklist right now. It's not bad, but the level design and missions are just so average.
The first four Splinter cell were really about stealth, about waiting in those crazy positions to kill a guy, it was about patience, meticulosity, planning.
Conviction had a great sense of stealth action, it brought something new and did it well, it was fun in a different way, faster, you could push the limits.
Blacklist is just a mixed bag of those two directions, it doesn't do stealth like the old games did, and it doesn't do action like conviction did. Without hesitation, it's the worst splinter cell, it's still a pretty good game though.

I only played Conviction and Blacklist as I am newer to the Splinter cell games, but I enjoyed both games very much. I will admit I did like Conviction a little more.

Lmao, if you suck at a perfectly made game why bash it?

GrayFox2083612d ago

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing18d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit18d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing18d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
