Pandora Tomorrow was pretty fucking good too, my personal favorite.

Pandora Tomorrow was passable... but you're in the minority preferring it over Chaos Theory.
 
Only thing that'd make this game perfect is to bring back Amon Tobin. The current musics sound alright, though I think orchestrated doesn't suit Sam.

Also, why does Sam look like Liam Neeson in that Collector's edition trailer?
 
i really do hate how they put in stuff into the CE when we know they just removed it from the regular version.

SHit likes this makes me want to rent SC:C or buy it when it drops to 20

Sam has never looked the same in two splinter cell games (in my opinion), it's so weird. It's like they keep losing the Fisher model and they have to start from scratch each time. It's not like he gets older either, sometimes he looks younger, sometimes his face has a complete different bone structure. I don't know what the hell is wrong with that guy.

Funny, I always thought CE stood for Collector's Edition, didn't realize it now means Complete Edition. I swear the biggest innovation this generation has come from the publishers finding new ways of milking us. Don't get me wrong, I know dev costs have skyrocketed in the last few years and I've enjoyed the shit out of this gen so far but hearing stuff like this is extremely disappointing...

Thanks for this, especially since I'm away from my 360 till next year...

Looks good, and it's 6 hours long? Good stuff right there...

Gonna still need a direct feed version of that trailer still though.

I've been looking everywhere and I don't think there is one yet.

I'm still waiting for the long awaited newly improved SvM announcement. =(
 
Sucks they're holding back gameplay stuff for the CE... don't really like the trend... but they better have that content available as DLC.
 
That co-op mode trailer looks good enough to be a game of it's own. Here's hoping it allows for single player as well (AI controlled partner i mean)
 
Please please please pleease please PLEASE don't make it co-op only with people on my friends list. Shit like that is why I never got to try Spec-ops in MW2 or barely play Halo 3 co-op or ODST Firefight.

This. Just give me an option to match up with random people.

infiltration mode is CE-only? UBI never ceases to fail...

Pff, I'll wait until it eventually goes as a free update. Too many good games coming out to afford a collector's edition.
 
Looks like classic splinter cell. I'm in. Will probably do a coop run by myself to get perfect rating since I rather enjoy it even if few have the patience for it. :D

Not sure if this is accurate, but I read on the game's official forum that the mode will be unlockable in the game for free via UPlay points.

What the hell are uplay points?

I think it's something to do with Ubisoft adding their own achievement system into their games. I believe it's in Assassin's Creed 2 as well. Sounds to me like in Uncharted, how you could 'purchase' various game tweaks and videos, etc. via the in-game points system.

Hopefully that's the case. Just means you'll have to beat certain things in the game to unlock, I'm cool with that :)

Ahh, sounds alright. I'm hoping that's true then.
 
Yeah, Infiltration Mode shows up as a reward for the game. You can even check it out now if you have a copy of Assassin's Creed 2 on the 360.

I totally forgot about that. I remember seeing it around AC2's launch. Currently have about 110 Uplay points to spend too.
 
You won't be able to use your points on it until the game comes out; your restricted from spending points on games you don't own. They also have RUSE up as well, but I don't know enough about it to know if they're cool downloads or not.

Would have to throw up the Blimblim signal, but looking at the time, he's definitely asleep now...

EDIT: Nevermind...

Co-op looks like a lot of fun. I am honestly not a fan of the series, but I am very excited about Conviction and the Co-op mode looks as improved and polished as the new style of the SP campaign.

Can't wait!

1000x this. Don't fuck this up like Bungie and IW. Follow Epic and Valve.

Fuck they are going away from the style of soundtrack that was so great for Chaos theory and Double agent :-/
Click to expand...
Chaos Theory has one of the best videogame soundtracks ever, I don't like this good-but-generic orchestral stuff they've put in Conviction.

[edit]Fuck it, I'm gonna buy the PC version on Steam right now. Listening to the soundtrack on Spotify got me in the mood.
 
Co-Op Developer Walkthrough (4:51)

Integrating it with the main campaign by making it a prologue is a neat idea. It's a miracle it's not DLC. I just hope they've got enough time to clean up the tearing and framerate. The last minute in particular is god awful.

What's even happening at 3:58? Looks like the guy's "last known position" starts shooting at him.
