DemonWare revealed today that Ubisoft is tapping their multiplayer network for Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent. The network software company will power the online features for the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game. Splinter Cell Double Agent is out now for 360 and will release on PC on October 26.
Darren writes: "Splinter Cell: Double Agent certainly wasn’t afraid to tread new ground in 2006, introducing events that would change the series forever."
Microsoft presented a new batch of Xbox 360 games that received Xbox One X enhancements via Xbox One backward compatibility, and here you can watch how they run.
Nothing wrong with more games. As someone who just fundamentally hates xbox, I am pretty jelly that xbox gamers get real BC.
Finally ninja gaiden 2 is BC, I've been waiting on this since they announced BC.
Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne
Amazing news! NG2!?!? Three Splinter Cell games!!! Fable 2&3 (the first is already enhanced)!!! This is what separates Microsoft's version of BC from others...its that they enhance both the performance and visual quality of these titles to keep them current in a lot of cases, instead of playing them exactly how they played and performed back in the day. Whats even better...I don't need to do ANYTHING but download the new patch...amazing.👏
Keep it coming Xbox!
Splinter Cell Blacklist and Splinter Cell Double Agent join the Xbox One backwards compatibility list. Xbox One is the home of Sam Fisher, it would seem.
Absolutely loved Blacklist. My favourite game in the series. I only have the PS3 version though, so sadly I won't get to take advantage of this BC, unless a good sale comes along.
Does this mean that it is a network that will operate like xfire on PS3? or is it a multiplayer game engine and I am simply brain farting.
It's just the software that UBI used to develope the games online to be used for the Xbox Live and PC online. Now maybe it's more involved w/the PC but nothing further w/the Xbox 360 and LIVE.
unless there's something more that I'm not aware of. Microsoft and the Xbox Live "host" the game.
there's ALOT of lag, and I thought they were releasing a patch for the multi-player?
Microsoft give the option to game developers to use their own servers too. i.e. EA usually use their own servers. But they most follow certain standard so the games feel the same way.
Hey I have a few questions if anybody who knows could possibly clear this up for me, I went out and randomly bought a new 50" Hi def TV today and well I have a HDTV now that I play my 360 on and I use the cables that came with the Premium package. But now my new TV has slots for VGA and all that, should I keep to component cables or will I get a better picture from VGA?
