I'm skeptic. I'm too much of a conservative because of the previous SC games. I'll have to wait and see as I see this as pretty much a Jason Bourne game, which is bad. But I don't know. I trust Ubi Montreal as they did all the other SC games, but the gameplay is making me feel skeptic.

They want to bring SC to a much more broader audience. The words "Hardcore stealth fans" and "hardcore shooter fans will enjoy the new splinter cell" has me worried. I hate it w...

Y'know, judging a person by the amount of bubbles they have isn't any better than playing the "age card".

Have you been in topics that discuss Video codecs/containers? All the Xvid vs. Dvix, h263 vs. h264. AVC vs. MP4, AVI vs. MPEG4? Pixel counters at every single turn. And even then: we're not even going into debating between proportional bitrates when figuring out which codec runs the least bitrates, but produces the best picture. The world of pixel counting is far too big for N4G to really comprehend beyond simple PS3/360 comparisons. But it's to be expected I guess.

There's no pr...

It's always good to know exactly how the image is being rendered. The article assumes that Pixel counting started with this-gen, when it's been going on since the days of Counter-Strike. The only problem here is that console-fanboys use that information for their own selfish gains and that is what's being addressed in the article. The selfish-gains of it.

I support pixel-counting regardless because it goes beyond simply counting pixels, but learning exactly how effective things ...

The site won't load up, but the tracker still works. I'm still uploading and the connections still seem clear.

I hope that the PS2 emulation comes soon. I'll dump my death-prone 60GB and go for something better. NOT! (haha! got cha!)

I'll only switch PS3s if the software emulation provides better IQ and performance for PS2 games and only on those terms. Otherwise I'd rather still keep my feature-rich PS3.

Right now, I'm extracting the data off the HDD in "encrypted" form. It's taking a while. I've had the process going since last night which is about 7 hours ago, and I only have 17.6GB extracted so far.

The good news at least is that the PS3 HDD Toolbox software recognizes the PS3 HDD while Windows does not. That's a pretty huge step in itself.

Google, "habla?"

That what it sounds like yes. It sounds like we can finally get our save data from our broken PS3s. An impossible feat until now.

EDIT: I'm going to try fiddling with it right now. I'll post my results later.

EDIT: MOTHER ****ER! I don't have space! I'll have to free up some space. Goddamnit damnit....*goes to backup porn files*

Agreed. Is id in such a pitiful state that they have to rehash old games? And the iphone no less. It's hard to stomach one of the greatest PC devs of all time turn into this.

I know about this game. It's like Combat Arms.

The irony is that this article is 710 Degrees, yet there's only 24 comments.

I kind of miss the 1st Person narration in Operation Barracuda. But I got used to it. Still, I miss it regardless. Good to know that another SC fan loves the books.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love reading the SC novels! To anyone curious: there is a total of 5 novels and they're all really good reads!

Splinter Cell
Splinter Cell Operation Barracuda
Splinter Cell Checkmate
Splinter Cell Fallout
Splinter Cell Conviction <----I think they scrapped "Dead or Alive" for this book since I don't see it on their site.

I don't like it. New Game+ makes games more fun to play because it's basically taking a demigod through the game and who here doesn't love stomping on just about everything? Also I find the dev's description hard to understand...but we'll see.

I'm in the "Cross-game chat" boat. PSN desperately needs this. Cross-game chat, cross-game invites(universally), and a robust friends system is why I pay $50 a year for Live. Give PSN that and I'd jump ship rather quickly.

I believe Halo still has much to offer: Master Chief isn't dead yet. And if Kojima is up to his eyes in death-threats: he'll make Snake's age-thingy go away with ze POWAH of NANOZ!

I didn't watch Revenge of the Fallen yet, so please, no spoilers.

I think I'm beginning to understand why some serial killers become serial killers. The absurdities of this world and its people can be too hard to bear at times. Also **** the EOCS.
