"Looks like I got shotgun." I almost expected Fisher in that UK video to say "Looking for me, asshole?" at the end. Awesome video.

Uhh man that video was fricken terrible.

[Gooster]

Uhh man that video was fricken terrible.

As just about every GameStop ad is. I'm personally more annoyed by the one for God of War 3 than this one. If you thought I was calling that awesome, hell no! I was referring to the European launch trailer. :lol

[FunkyMunkey]

And the fact that they spam the gamestop ads more than the actual game's commercials.

Phew good I thought you were calling that awesome. Your right though all those Gamestop ones are abysmal.

[Always-honest]

yeah.. what the fuck was that?.. why?.. this pulls down the game in a shit-pit

[JambiBum]

They do that with all GS ads. Doesn't matter the game.

okay.. glad we don't have 'm over here.

[CloakedPuppet]

Wow, the commercial for this game is pretty amazing. I love the song choice. Just so people don't think I'm talking about the gamestop POS Splinter Cell Television Commercial The version I saw wasn't as long though.

Shame that due to hypocritical censors and idiotic soccer-mom twats, this kind of game commercial will never wash in North America.

Well - lookee here! Thursday evening (and weekend) confirmed!

Will do - still have a bit to do before I install it and give it a go.

[SNUG REVOL]

I've put about 10 hours into it. Ask me some questions.

[SuperAwesome]

I've put about 10 hours into it. Ask me some questions.

How much longer do you think it's going to be?

By what means did you get it? (mom and pop, b/m)

[TheLegendary]

I've put about 10 hours into it. Ask me some questions.

Primer: have you played Chaos Theory/older Splinter Cells?

If so...can you play the game like you were able to play the older games? How action oriented is it?

And you're 10 hours into single player or have you played all game modes? How long is the SP campaign?

I'm playing on Realsitic and I've reached the last level. I'm actually impressed by the length of the game. I should finish the game with a total 8-10 hours.

Ok, here is where I need to be careful. First off I'm a HUGE Splinter Cell nut. Loved Chaos Theroy and Double Agent(Xbox1).

Hate to say it but that form of stealth is dead :(. If you think you can play Conviction like the old splinter cells, cancel your pre-order. I dont hate the game, but I had to adjust my expectations. The new "stealth" is dropping 4 dudes in mark and execute without being seen. Is this fun? yea, but I miss what Splinter Cell was known for.

Its mess. Some of the twists and reveals really make you scratch your head. (IMO)


I know ive been pretty negative, but the co op is bad ass.

[ToyMachine228]

On Amazon, where during the checkout process do you enter the $5 off SPLINTER code?

Alright - some of my very early impressions. First off, the game looks quite good - really reminds me a LOT of Assassin's Creed II so far. The stealth aspect is definitely evolved from previous games but, so far, I think it's great. To me it seems like a natural way to go for the series.

This is easily one of my favorite series and I'm really enjoying it so far. Keep in mind, I also thoroughly enjoyed my time with the demo.

So was the IQ increased from the demo?

[BrassMonkey1010]

fuck amazon credit!! I hated the demo of this game, but bought it anyways. Its gotta okay for $31.

[Jay-B]

I've put about 10 hours into it. Ask me some questions.

What did you think of the level design (sp)? Is it mostly open areas or was the demo fairly representative of what the levels are like in the final game?

[Darkmakaimura]

I've put about 10 hours into it. Ask me some questions.

Is the level in the demo (you know, where you rescue the scientist) in the actual game as it appeared in the demo itself?

[Lunchbox]

Well - lookee here! Thursday evening (and weekend) confirmed! [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v716/Shaersh/IMG_4853.jpg[IMG]

hey

HEY

Fuck you

[CloakedPuppet]

The bathroom interrogation scene is the only one that I've played from the demo and it looks the same. I'm on the first mission and I think the game looks very good though. Again, I'm very much reminded of ACII - both in image quality and general art direction. Great attention to detail in the environments too.

Demo had quite a few ways to approach situations.

Hows the Ghost Recon beta?

[SketchTheArtist]

By the way guys, don't know if you knew already, but all the levels in the game have been designed to accomodate those who want to kill anything that moves and those who want to play it stealth, be a ghost that no one will see or hear. Just like that Stealth Video with Sam emerging from the back of a truck.

So, please, no more whining about ''This isn't steathy!!'' :-P

[CloakedPuppet]

I'm really REALLY digging this game. Sam feels a lot deadlier all around and the pacing feels much more urgent. AI seems pretty sharp and unforgiving. I'm just scratching the surface and am already thinking about different ways to approach each situation.

[TheLegendary]

Christ... you guys are going to convince me to get the damn game after cancelling/reordering/cancelling my order. :(

[CloakedPuppet]

Christ... you guys are going to convince me to get the damn game after cancelling/reordering/cancelling my order. :(

Honestly, I think that people who were put off by the demo have to realize that the new mechanics are really well implemented here. Also, the execute markers are only an OPTION - I've been using them so far but I can tell that there is nothing preventing from being completely stealthy and taking out most baddies from the shadows. The level design really supports multiple styles as has been mentioned.

[JambiBum]

This is why I'm glad that multiple people got it early. Cloaked and Snug clearly go about playing the game differently. Not that that's a bad thing really, but it helps to get different people's opinion of the game.

[CrazedArabMan]

Christ... you guys are going to convince me to get the damn game after cancelling/reordering/cancelling my order. :(

Bi-polar with pre-ordering or what?

Also, nice impressions from the people who have it.

[Digital-Hero]

So no reviews yet eh?

[TheLegendary]

Bi-polar with pre-ordering or what?

I guess you can say bi-polar towards the game. I'll probably still hold off a few weeks but early impressions sound good...

[CloakedPuppet]

LOTS of F-bombs so far for those that were wondering. :lol

Not that I mind. Makes head shots and yanking foul mouthed douche bags through open windows that much more fun. :D

[Tkawsome]

I saw it on North American television.

Lol. Is there a lot of screen tearing in the retail version?

Really? That surprises me - in a good way.

So, since you haven't played the demo portion of that part, is the part I described (going into basement to rescue scientist before she's shot, etc) in the game itself?

[CloakedPuppet]

Lol. Is there a lot of screen tearing in the retail version?

I haven't been noticing very much at all - I think I noticed a very minor amount on an outdoor bit at the beginning.

I'm sure it is but I haven't gotten there yet.

I think the review embargo lifts tomorrow if I read a post in the other thread or it might have been this one correctly. Let's hope so.

EWWWWWWWWWWWW :(. Not that I really pay attention to IGN's reviews. But I don't like his voice.
