But can you play upthe shoootbang with friendsd, or will the baaasheep forget the tearstime?

:lol

Should be the quote on the box of this game.

 

[HigherLevel]

I hope Spies vs. Mercs returns. It make no sense that they removed the multiplayer from SC in a time when every game has multiplayer. Also, surely they heard all the complaints from the fans when they only had co-op in Conviction.

A little bird tweeted me about a new Splinter Cell at E3 last night.

Enjoyed the shit out of Conviction. Mostly bored by the first three. I finished the first two, couldn't make it through Chaos Theory. Quit at the Japanese estate level.

 

[Foffy]

At least this time I will be prepared for the bludgeoning Ubi will perform on Splinter Cell's corpse. Conviction was entertaining as long as you pretend it's a 24 game.

Ubi has tarnished the entire Clancy brand with the last number of games. Seriously, Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six, and Ghost Recon have all fallen down various slopes (to different degrees) but there seems to be no incentive to rise back up.

It's amazing because last gen the Clancy games were my go-to games when I wanted some military games. Now I tend to not even care for whatever the hell they spit out.

 

[Collider]

Need old Sam back. Not rogue bogue.

 

[revolverjgw]

I really wish they'd go back to the series' roots, but I also liked Conviction for what it was. So... alright, kind of hyped.

Double Agent was the black sheep. Conviction IMO was a return to form.

How to fix Splinter Cell

• Make it like the first three games

 

[EscoBlades]

Chaos Theory > all. The end.

 

[Foffy]

What?! What form did it return to? And what version of Double Agent was the black sheep? The one that played like Chaos Theory or the 7th gen game?

 

[StoppedInTracks]

But can you play upthe shoootbang with friendsd, or will the baaasheep forget the tearstime?

Oh Jesus :lol

 

[kuYuri]

I'm down for more SC: Conviction.

 

[def sim]

Double Agent bums me out because the OG Xbox version was apparently the better game compared to the HD version. What a piss poor decision that was.

 

[PopcornMegaphone]

Conviction was my first Splinter Cell game. It wasn't great, but I enjoyed it. Conviction kinda felt like a poor mans Batman: AA with guns. I'm interested in a sequel, but I won't buy it day one.

 

[LOCK]

I am ok with this.

 

[Salsa]

Make it more like the co-op missions in Conviction and im in.

 

[JackEtc]

Was hoping for a new splinter cell at E3 this year, I really enjoy the series. Excited to see this news.

 

[Hiro_Kunimi_80]

best news of the E3

 

[Raide]

Spies Vs Mercs or they can forget it.

 

[Jackpot]

I loved Conviction. Half way between SC and Hitman.

 

[Lakitu]

They better have improved the 'stealth' mechanics from Conviction tenfold and make it more like the originals in terms of tone.

 

[Marleyman]

Chaos theory style Spy vs merc please

Please.

 

[def sim]

You know they're never bringing that back.

 

[Takamura-San]

Conviction was terrible and everybody who says "No Nibel, you are wrong altough you smell good" hasn't played the previous installments - or, to be specifically: Chaos Theory. That game was god-tier in my opinion.

Having not played chaos theory.... who are you to say that I will enjoy that game more than I enjoyed conviction? can you guarantee that?

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Spies Vs Mercs or they can forget it.

Give me Spies V.S. Mercs local play: PAC Man V.S. style on Wii-U and I am there day one.

 

[fifasnipe2224]

ohhhh god yes! I need me some more Sam Fisher. I wish Lambert was still around =(

Edit: AWWW YEA! Full Member now! only took me 4 years!
Edit 2: OVER 4 years =(

 

[def sim]

Having not played chaos theory.... who are you to say that I will enjoy that game more than I enjoyed conviction? can you guarantee that?

No. Not everyone can have good taste, sorry.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Please be more Chaos Theory and nothing like Conviction.

 

[MMaRsu]

The sequel to conviction? Yeah fuck no thanks

 

[Agent Ironside]

Even though CT will always be my favorite, I'm most excited to see what will be done on the Wii U controller with this game, perfect game to make the new controller useful.

 

[Raide]

Hold up controller for the various vision modes. Will have a heart-rate monitor on there and maybe even light/shadow and sound sensors. Probably.

 

[Seda]

I liked all the Splinter Cell games I've played. Will buy.

 

[spanks]

Give me Spies V.S. Mercs local play: PAC Man V.S. style on Wii-U and I am there day one.

Oh shit, you just reminded me about the Splinter Cell Gamecube/GBA connectivity (radar, sticky cam, etc). Ubi loves messing with gadgets. Plus, like you said, the tablet is perfect for asymmetrical multiplayer. Wii U confirmed for best version.

 

[Sojgat]

The sequel to conviction? Yeah fuck no thanks

Pretty much this. Unless Ubi change the gameplay back to something resembling Chaos Theory I just don't care anymore. The best thing to come out of Splinter Cell: Conviction was it's launch trailer.

 

[EscoBlades]

I hope it's not a 360 exclusive

360, PS3, PC and Wii U.

 

[Kydd BlaZe]

I enjoyed Conviction. Will buy day one.

 

[Takamura-San]

Will there be another NVG bet by vinny?

This I want to know...

 

[Don'tBeWeird]

Yes, please be more like CT. ):

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

But can you play upthe shoootbang with friendsd, or will the baaasheep forget the tearstime?

I really liked Conviction. I thought it was a great game in its own right. I also loved the first three games and really liked Double Agent.

Hope Ubi has found a way to incorporate more of what made CT great into what made Conviction great.

 

[ArjanN]

Sequel to Conviction doesn't tell us anything about the game mechanics. It's could be a sequel to conviction and play exactly like Chaos Theory or exactly like Conviction.

I'm guessing they'll dial up the stealth elements a bit more compared to Conviction.

 

[Vilam]

If you loved Resident Evil 4 and hated Conviction then you're a hypocrite.

Both good games that weren't right for their franchise. As someone who greatly enjoyed Conviction though, I'm happy to get more of it.

 

[MMaRsu]

If you loved Resident Evil 4 and hated Conviction then you're a hypocrite.

Lol no you are not.

 

[Square Triangle]

a sequel to Conviction?


No thanks.

 

[keltickennedy]

Double Agent was the black sheep. Conviction IMO was a return to form.

Double Agent on the original xbox was actually pretty good. WAY better than the 360 version.

 

[Square Triangle]

Double Agent on the original xbox was actually pretty good. WAY better than the 360 version.

Yes. DA on the original Xbox was amazing.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

I really liked Conviction, but it wasn't what I wanted out of a Splinter Cell game. Chaos Theory is still the pinnacle.

Honestly, they should just get a hold of the Bourne license and put Conviction's style to work there.

 

[Tuck]

I hope it isn't 360 exclusive I wanted to play conviction but I don't have an Xbox.

Haven't played a stealth game since MGS4 =(.

 

[Jtrizzy]

Isn't this being done by a different team than Conviction? I thought this was a new team with Jade in charge. Conviction had some ok ideas, but they need to find a middle ground between it and Chaos Theory. They also need to do a better job optimizing on PC.
