TGS 09: Splinter Cell: Conviction Release Date

Splinter Cell Conviction didn't quite hit its targeted release date of 2009, but those eagerly awaiting Sam Fisher's return won't have to wait much longer. Ubisoft has finally nailed down a date for the release of Splinter Cell Conviction. If you live in the United States, mark your calendars for February 23. Both the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game will hit shelves then. Those in Europe will have to wait a couple of extra days.

The added few months of development time is being used for final polishing and tweaking, according to Ubisoft.

MArk your calenders ps3 owners February 23

When the most legendary stealth series makes its triumph return and shows the mgs series how a true masterpiece looks like that has plenty off gameplay and no

9 hour cutscenes like metal gear solid 4

splinter cell is one off the 4 games alan wake splinter cell conviction mass effect 2 and halo reach that will deal the finishing blows to the ps3 and sony and send them all back to the junkyard

SONy owners go back to the hole you all came from when 2010 is over the playstation 3 will be extinct like dinosaurs

PirateThom6131d ago

Will definitely wait for the complete version on PS3 in 2011, no point in buying incomplete games these days.

Pandemic6131d ago

I'm pretty sure GT5 will be the final blow to the Xbox 360...

morganfell6131d ago

Ha ha Thom, a true swashbuckling moment.

Aquarius6131d ago (Edited 6131d ago )

Defintely PirateThom why should I allow M$ to rip me off buying expensive DVDs. The game will receive "TONS OF CONTENTS" anyway for PS3.

Most likely to get pushed again. Feburary is crowded as it is. Wow bots have to wait months for a game LOL.

@below you forgot AGENT which M$ gave to us for free ;)
FFXIII Versus

Mr Logic6131d ago

For once try being reasonable. Yes there is no doubt the 360 has an impressive lineup, but 2 (possibly 3 in the future) are coming to PC.
Versus MAG, WKC, GOW, Trico, Motion Controller, R3(most likely), Modnation Racers.

ReviewsArePolitics6131d ago

Good luck with that beta test, I'll get the final version on PS3

vagisil6131d ago

like you waited for the superior version of ninja gaiden 2 right? hey the ps3 version got more content, too bad it is mediocre sh1t.

EPIC ! The game looks INSANE !!!

Pandemic6131d ago

Game looks awesome. I'll be buying it for PC. :)

gaffyh6131d ago

I was expecting a march release but nice to see an earlier date. Looking forward to playing it, hopefully february isnt too crowded

Sen Sei6131d ago

Fantastic looking. Getting it for my shiny new Xbox 360 Elite :)

I did not murder him6131d ago

MSFT needs all the support the company can get on all their platforms. More games for gamers and MSFT supporters. MSFT needs people to buy software exclusive to their platforms. So lets all be gamers and talk to PS3 fans in feeling ok with buying non Sony.

TheBand1t6131d ago

Unless it's published as Games for Windows, MS isn't seeing a goddamned dime. Dumbass.

KillaManiac6131d ago

Wonder if a game like this will have mods on PC version.

Would be quite nice....

gaffyh6131d ago (Edited 6131d ago )

It's really weird that I got disagreed with for saying I was getting the game. Lol fanboys are hilarious, I'm getting it for Xbox 360 you retards.

@1.5 - MS don't make any royalties from PC games, even if they say Games For Windows on them. It's part of the reason why PC games are significantly cheaper than the console games.

FPShooter6131d ago

This game is reason I got my 360 two months ago. I can't wait to get my hands on it. Its a great time to be a gamer

Saaking6131d ago

PC version will be awesome.

The-Warranty6131d ago

lol @ the disagrees he got just for saying M$ doesn't get money if the don't publish it. Which is true.

dreamcast6131d ago

When will they announce the PS3 release date?

I kid, I kid... (but it will happen)

Sarcasm6131d ago

"GOTY Contender"

We're not even out of 2009 yet and you're talking about GOTY 2010

Ahmad-6131d ago

"Hopefully February isn't to crowded."

For 360 it aint

Can't wait for some multiplayer details.

N4PS3G6131d ago

of course!

Live + SC Multiplayer = Awesome

Saaking6131d ago

Well personally I'd rather get on PC. Free online + Free mods= win. Sorry, but the 360 version is no doubt inferior especially since you have to pay 50 bucks to play online

Watch Ninja Gaiden II, Fable 2, Fable 3, and Splinter Cell Games Enhanced for Xbox One X in Action

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.

Bane352638d ago (Edited 2638d 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

hiawa232638d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane352638d ago (Edited 2638d ago )

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

Z5012638d ago

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

Bane352638d ago (Edited 2638d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19932638d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5012638d ago

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

bluebenjamin2638d ago

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

Gwiz2638d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin2638d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

2638d ago
Movefasta19932638d 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.

Gaming4Life19812638d 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.

bluebenjamin2638d 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

Movefasta19932638d ago

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

Z5012638d 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.

Gaming4Life19812638d 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.

Hungryalpaca2638d ago

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

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin2638d ago

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

timotim2638d ago (Edited 2638d 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

lxeasy2928d ago

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

ApexWolf222928d 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.

AG1002928d ago

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

Goldby2927d ago

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

yomfweeee2928d ago

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

BQ322928d ago

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

annoyedgamer2928d ago

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

lxeasy2928d 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."

No confusion at all. Just another game added to the list if anyone gets nostalgic.

Vectrexer3067d ago

Are we confused? We get games that we've been enjoyed before at no cost to us!

C-H-E-F3068d ago

"new"? an "old" Tom Clancy Adventure can be enjoyed on xbox one due to back capat is worth the return"
