Dude, Splinter Cell is still an amazing series. Its changed from how it used to be, but that doesnt make it any worse. The last two games (Double Agent and Conviction) had arguably the best stories in the series because they related directly to Sam and were far more personal and dramatic. I like that in a story, and thus loved those games. Whatever Ubi do with the next Splinter Cell should be great.
Looks like a lot of fun. Reminds me of Rage a bit.
Im so happy to see there actually some sensible people on here. When it first came out, I dont think I seen one sensible or thoughtful comment about it. It was all just 'OMG, the ending sucked', 'i hated the ending, EA must die!!!1!' and 'they made it crap so they can charge us for it lolz, greedy mofos zomg!' etc, etc.
GTA V and BioShock Infinite would be two of this years biggest action games, so the company that will be reeling in the money from both of them wouldnt want to release them in the same month as that would just hurt thier own sales as im sure certain cistomers would only buy 1.
One publisher can release more than one game a year you know...
They are out of luck becuase they dont have that option. Its not forcing you, its giving you the option for a better (ie, faster, smoother) experience.
What games have tried to clone Halo this generation?
Split/Second wasnt underrated, it was critically very successful. It just didnt sell well becuase it was released on the same day as Red Dead Redemption, Alan Wake and Prince of Persia.
But this game, no. I thoroughly didnt enjoy it, and am a big racing fan through and through. I dont rate things based on what others are rating them or to look for hits. I rate them on thier own merits, of which I found very lacking in this game.
Whore_Mouth, they are disagreeing with the fact he said 'unfortunately'. A lot of people dont like playing as Elites, and are thus disagreeing with the notion that it is unfortunate.
Absolutely not, people just love to complain about something when everything isnt perfect for them.
Boobs.
Falmer's history is Snow Elves.
Hell yeah! An Umbra quest would be awesome, they could really flesh it out and build some mythology around it if they wanted to.
There are more games releases that arent shooters, than ones that are.
I never got to experince the Battlefront games online, but seeing as it was good enough with just bots, I imagine they would be amazing online titles!
Strange, the copy I bought and played through was completely finished, I had a wonderful time.
Please dont make a street magician game...
From the comments, the Astro's seem to be pretty good. Can anyone tell me about thier battery life? I use a pair of Turtle Beach X41's, they sound great, but I find the battery life is pretty disappointing.
This was one of the best games of 2011, defiantely deserved more than this. At least it made money (although not much). Hopefully it sells well on the PS Vita.
As opposed to the enemies being Middle Eastern, Russian or Korean soliders?
