Aside from Lost Planet 3..

They wouldn't keep making it if no one was buying it.

While I didn't really care for the direction they went with the second entry in the series, I feel that the original, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, had potential to be something even greater than what it was. I'm hoping that Spark Unlimited taps into that untouched potential and delivers a satisfying entry into the series.

joab7773916d ago

Yeah...lost planet 2, its replayability and co op with friends was epic. They ditched all that! It won't sell at all, especially with spliner cell and xcom coming before...and diablo and gta coming after. I will probably still b playing xillia but I am excited for xcom and its ME style combat. And splinter cell looks really good. I am sad about LP3 but I hope it does well.

Tales of Xillia and Dragon's Crown are better than those games.

Transporter473916d ago (Edited 3916d ago )

Relientk773916d ago

quantae063916d ago (Edited 3916d ago )

Lost Planet 3 - Lost in Time

Lost Planet 3 launched 10 years ago today, with an unusual take for it's time; casting the layer as an everyman opposed to an action hero.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell - A Decade in the Shadows

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell has been out of action for a decade, so it's time to look back at 2013's Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

CoNn3rB251d ago

Sam Fisher is evidently the most skilled stealth operative because no-one has seen him in his own game for years

kevco33251d ago

10 years, in fact. He must be, like, 60 by now?

phoenixwing251d ago (Edited 251d ago )

why make an inspired game that takes effort when you can half ass it with multiplayer gaas games and filler filled assassins creed games?

That question up there is the reason you don't see splinter cell games

zarbor251d ago

Yup, another example that Ubisoft has no idea what they are doing.

MIDGETonSTILTS17251d ago

The entire mark and execute system belonged in another game.

It’s cool, but the polar opposite to how Sam Fisher initially handled.

The original trilogy made shooting very, very difficult, yet a viable option, which ultimately motivates stealth.

The mark/execute system makes shooting stupid easy, to the point of why would you even bother trying stealth as an alternative?

FYouDad250d ago

Because Ghost is the method fans of the series actually prefer? IMark and execute is never forced upon the player you liiterally never have to bother using it even once throughout Blacklist.

Tody_ZA251d ago

The sad part is that I actually really enjoyed the last game, Blacklist. It may have lacked the iconic voice but the gameplay was excellent, and blended stealth, action and a mix really great compared to most games, where none of the three options felt like the wrong way to play. I really hope they either produce a remake of the original game or a proper sequel.

Rikimaru-00251d ago

Isn't UBI Soft remaking splinter cell.

Killer is Dead arrived a decade ago, and despite not receiving a sequel stands-up as a unique work from SUDA 51.
