you know the only ones i can agree on are number 2 and number 4 maybe 5

number 1 wasn't really only nintenods fault if i remember right they both couldn't agree on certain things then they just went different ways

as for number 3 it actually wasn't that big of a deal because what they did for the gamecube wasn't even really great
rare wasn't the same after the N64 DAYS i mean most of the original devs weren't even there anymore

number 2 though LOL the cd-i LOL LOL LOL LOL

also FF7 was great but i wouldn't go so far as to call it the greatest game ever made

qface645460d ago

honestly i wish i had a new cd-i right now i think you could sell that for quite a bit
probably about the only thing its good for lol

1 and 2 are elements of what is essentially the same "goof".

Also, based on Rare's output recently, I'd say Nintendo did the right thing in selling their share.

Too dated in my book. The AI is way too unpredictable to be acceptable today. It's definitely a game of its time.

Jingsing2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Agreed with those sentiments. The quality of the CPU controlled characters make or break a stealth game and they are pretty poor in all the Splinter Cell games by today's standard. This is what led me to playing Spies vs Mercs all the time in later games just to get a better stealth experience from a real person. Arguably Sony are making better stealth games albeit not Tom Clancy stuff.

You should stick with fortnite or one of the countless bloodborne style games then. What a joke.

I had a good time with the game. It is a product of its time. But when it came out it was a must have game for a lot of people. I wish Ubisoft would make another game in the series or at least a reboot.

vgvill2d ago

They are making a remake, I think. I loved the original game when it was released, but I tried to play it again in recent years and just couldn't get on with it. The same with the older Hitman games.

Yeah chaos theory still holds up though I gotta say. If you’re a fan of the series I highly suggest you go back to that one. Ubi has said they are remaking sc for “modern audiences”. I don’t have a lot of faith for the future of that company

Due to the lack of modern stealth games, and me constantly playing the MGS series, I've been looking for alternative stealth games to play, and went back and re-played the SC series recently. I wouldn't call SC1 or SC:PT masterpieces, there are AI issues, they're very much trial-and-error games, and that can lead to a lot of frustration. I also found the stories in this series to be boring, uninteresting, and just sloppily told. Cinematics are also of poor quality for both in-game scenes and CG cut-scenes, the soundtrack didn't leave any impression on me either.

Chaos Theory is better, but there was still a lot of room for improvement, and Double Agent (old gen ver.) was a sloppy mess that ended up a regression from CT. But still, at least they tried back then, these days Ubi-junk doesn't even try to make good games!
