A Game Forgotten: Splinter Cell: Conviction — Scrawl

Scrawl: "Besides being unusually high-profile, the first half of 2010 has been unusually busy. As such, we’ve endeavored to write a series of brief newspaper-style reviews (without scores) to highlight the games that might have been forgotten – particularly by those who might just be joining this generation – in favor of this holiday season’s blockbusters.

Sam Fisher – a man once inclined to stay in the shadows – is now a brutal, unforgiving and relentless killer. Not content with the ‘cup of tea and a crumpet’ method of interrogation, the ex-NSA (National Security Agency) employee wants answers, and for good reason – somebody killed his daughter. Now, he wants details."

It's forgotten for a reason. Many reasons.

It's hardly a splinter cell game; it's been made easy and simple for all of the new gamer 12-year-olds on the 360 who have never played the previous titles and probably don't have the mental capacity to complete them.

Insta-kill, easy setup assassination, insta-kill unlocked, insta-kill again, so on and so forth.
This goes on for 4-hours.

Is the co-op part to this any good? wanted to buy the game just to play that.

JewelTheif5677d ago

I heard the co-op was fantastic from a friend of mine.

taokaka135677d ago

alright! now to find a copy. But thats the hardest part for me, i can not find one single copy were ever i go, havent seen one since it came out.

karl5676d ago

yeah my bother has a friend and told me his sister's friend uncle.. saw it somewhere and it was really fun

or he was told.. i cant remember

yeah now go spend your money.. that should be enough for u

dirthurts5676d ago

If you're friend is an inpatient idiot (half of my friends) then no...
But if they are patient and clever, then yes very good co-op.

Urahara5676d ago

The coop sucked. Don't bother.

CrzyFooL5677d ago

Game was way better than it got credit for. So badass, so many cool features others games could learn from.

Lovable5676d ago

People were not ready for change?

Thecraft19895676d ago (Edited 5676d ago )

Game was not splinter cell quality it was short on even hardest difficulty becuase of it beaning too easy. Also stealth aspect just felt added on did not have that wow factor like splinter cell used too.

aaron58295676d ago

coupled with DS3 controller...

perfect experience for me...

Hardcore SC fans will feel this is much easier... but then again, this game is really fun !

SkylineR5676d ago

I have it sitting in my game library but have yet to play it... :o Have to get around to doing it.

Sam Fisher Deserves Better

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.

UltraNova2239d ago

MGS is done, at least as we know it so it's now or never Ubi, give Fisher the reboot it deserves. And for Gods sake, don't you dare turn Splinter Cell into another Division/Ghost reckon online abomination instead of a SP focused steath action game!

Psychonaut852238d ago

You know they will though. This is Ubisoft we’re talking about

zachyBROosevelt2239d ago (Edited 2239d ago )

I would love a new splinter cell, maybe even a reboot at this point. Sam Fisher deserves it

Profchaos2239d ago

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

hiawa232238d ago

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.
