I mean splinter cell did start on the xbox tho

Sgt_Slaughter2107d ago

As well as every other console at the time. Heck, even the N-Gage got a Splinter Cell game.

Tazzy2107d ago

I never knew Splinter Cell was on that that's crazy.

Sgt_Slaughter2107d ago

It was the first adaptation of the book so I imagine they wanted it on every platform they could.

Gamecube, PS2, Xbox, PC, Mac, Gameboy Advance, N-Gage, and Mobile.

RJ920092107d ago (Edited 2107d ago )

You know it was a timed Exclusive for the original xbox for almost year? Also had way better lighting and graphics compared to the game cube and pS2 version. So Technically it did start on xbox... 2002 November then 2003 sometime for ps2 and gamecube. I quick Google search will also confirm this

micdagoat192106d ago

First Splinter cell was exlusive to xbox for a while I felt like

Sam Fisher2107d ago

Wtf are you talking about it was on almost every console, the only "exclusive" was conviction after that all others were multiplat

MattE2107d ago

Yep, original was only exclusive for holiday 2002 then it came to PC and other platforms the following year

Grown Folks Talk2104d ago

The 1st was originally exclusive to Xbox, & utilized the system's advantages. Worlds better than the PS2 or Gamecube versions. You couldn't shoot out most of the lights on PS2, & levels were constructed differently. Same with the old Ghost Recon games. Always better on Xbox, which IMO was why Playstation only people pretended SOCOM was good.

Yi-Long2107d ago

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.

Jinger2107d ago

Ironside was missed in Blacklist though

Goldby2107d ago (Edited 2107d ago )

It was so weird not hearing his voice, and the fact they made Sam much younger.

And built in mechanics to reward people for not being stealthy. Kinda defeated the purpose of what Splontercell is all about

Switch4One2107d ago

It's gonna come to GWG eventually.

Vegamyster2106d ago

It's currently free on the XBL store, they haven't pulled it down from last night yet.

Switch4One2106d ago

You are thinking about Conviction

DaMist2107d ago

id be so happy if the mp servers would still be online...i wonder

micdagoat192107d ago

I want the Originals now so I can play them all in Order

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

kevco33259d ago

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

phoenixwing259d ago (Edited 259d 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

zarbor259d ago

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

MIDGETonSTILTS17259d 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?

FYouDad259d 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_ZA259d 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-00259d ago

Isn't UBI Soft remaking splinter cell.
