GamerVision: Splinter Cell: Conviction Eyes-On

A summary of Conviction's plot was explained to those who weren't familiar with the storyline of the franchise. In the last game, Double Agent, Sam Fisher's daughter Sarah was killed in a drunk driving accident-which he later found out wasn't an accident at all. In Conviction, he is hunting down his daughter's killer, and has left Third Echelon, meaning he is no longer bound to their rules.

What I'm wondering is which double agent is cannon. The 360/PS3 version or the xbox/PS2 version.

FreeMonk6244d ago

I've never played a Splinter Cell game, but after seeing the demo of this during the MS conference, I'm sold. It looks very slick, sweet and dark, which is great for a game like this.

I may even go back and play the orignal Splinter Cell, and then try Double Agent, just to get myself ready for Conviction.

CrimsonFox136244d ago

Damn! 360 console exclusive. This sounds fun, actually...

Hm... Mass Effect, Conviction, Alan Wake... Those sound really good...

thewhoopimen6243d ago

yeah, will definitely have a great time of it on my pc.

The real Why dis6244d ago

Splinter Cell Conviction with CGI graphics only on Microsoft platforms you won't see these kind of graphics on the Ps3.

"Splinter Cell Conviction with CGI graphics only on Microsoft platforms you won't see these kind of graphics on the Ps3."

lol you're kidding right? never mind, i already know the certain company you pole ride any second you have the chance to.

Jeromejones6244d ago (Edited 6244d ago )

thats funny. I have still yet to see a game on 360, even after E3 that beats killzone 2. SC conviction looks nice, but uncharted 2 smacks it & is at a much larger scale. Now that was CGI.

ef-u-26243d ago

this and alan wake hell even mass effect 2 and odst looked great

el zorro6244d ago

I agree, in so far as I think Splinter Cell Conviction is the graphical equal to anything on the PS3.

ShabzS6244d ago (Edited 6244d ago )

yup.. i'll second that

thewhoopimen6243d ago (Edited 6243d ago )

I humbly disagree given that no publication has said conviction is the equal of anything. Looking at the glass shards being shot out in the pic and I pretty much rest my case.

http://gamervision.com/cont...

Even infamous has real shard pieces breaking... and not glass particle dust lol.

That being said, the style and direction is certainly impressive.

raztad6243d ago

As gorgeous as Conviction is UC2 destroys it w/o mercy and all you guys know it. Conviction is in the best case comparable to Heavy Rain (graphics-wise), but I still think HR characters are more life like, more detailed.

SpoonyRedMage6244d ago

I think the game looks great. I've not been into Splinter Cell that much(I have played the games) but I might get into the series here.

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.

Bane352643d ago (Edited 2643d ago )

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

hiawa232643d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane352643d ago (Edited 2643d ago )

@hiawa23 i think R* has plans to remaster MP3 at this point

Z5012643d ago

You couldn't play your copy of NG2 before this announcement?

Bane352643d ago (Edited 2643d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19932642d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5012642d ago

Kept your game, but no console to play it on?
No one sells 360's anymore?

Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne

Gwiz2643d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin2643d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

2643d ago
Movefasta19932642d ago

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.

Gaming4Life19812642d ago

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.

bluebenjamin2643d ago

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

Movefasta19932642d ago

I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable

Z5012642d ago

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.

Gaming4Life19812642d ago

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.

Hungryalpaca2642d ago

And Forza is Better than MARIO Kart!!!!!

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin2642d ago

No Mario Kart is the best racer ever almost anyone can play

timotim2643d ago (Edited 2643d ago )

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!

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for July 2018 any good?

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

lxeasy2932d ago

Splinter cell conviction is great, vf 5 is fun. Haven't played the other two so I'm excited to try them out.

ApexWolf222932d ago

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.

AG1002932d ago

at least you can play the 360 games on xb1 too lol

Goldby2932d ago

Now that there's gamepass, expect bugger AAA to have priority in that, more money for both the dev and Ms more likely

yomfweeee2932d ago

I though Plus was lackluster this month. Gold is way worse.

BQ322932d ago

Vf5 fs is the best fighting game of all time abd backwards compatible, so it is a huge win in my book.

annoyedgamer2932d ago

No these are pretty awful. Virtua Fighter is great and so is Splinter Cell but those are 360 titles.

lxeasy2932d ago

so what if there 360 titles it's still awesome

A new Tom Clancy adventure can be enjoyed on Xbox One due to Back Compat – Is it worth the return?

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."

C-H-E-F3072d ago
