Yo can we get an Official Thread up in here? I don't care if we make a new one or retitle this one, but the game is only two weeks away and I wanna get the hype train rolling! Plus, I don't know how to post pics or anything, so maybe somebody else could do the honors?
I've been waiting for this game since the last one hit. This is one of the biggest games of the year for me. The multiplayer in the previous games was so original and awesome, I think it clocks in right under Quake III and Halo 2 for "most time spent playing".
I had a chance to play it at PAX '06 a couple months ago. Very much blown away by what I got to play too. All single player, but there were 3 parts: The skydiving we keep reading about, the level in the arctic where you grab guys from under the ice, and some kind of African looking level where there's apparently a civil war going on and civilians are getting killed by the military left and right. That level in particular blew me away. Sam is trying to make his way through all this chaos and its just crazy for a Splinter Cell game. I remember seeing civilians getting lined up against walls and executed and being able to either let them die or save them if I wanted. All-out gunfights going on in the streets between rebels and military personnel and Sam is just this bad mutha thrown into the mix, but not really on either side. It had a very real and modern feel to it that made it feel like what Sam was experiencing could end up on CNN at the end of the day.
Anyway, I am mega hyped for this game and I just wanted to spread the love around and get everyone riled up since its only a couple of weeks away.
PS- What ever happened with the Splinter Cell movie? Remember the trailer on the Chaos Theory disc? Paramount was handling it, and I haven't heard anything since the trailer on CT.
