Splinter Cell delayed for "polish"

Ubisoft has told Eurogamer that Splinter Cell: Conviction was delayed to add "a bit more polish", and not because Q1 2010 is unconventionally bursting with big-name releases.

delayed because of some small EU country.

Jamescagney5229d ago (Edited 5229d ago )

Which small country is that then?

EDIT:Doh! I see now.

Mr_Bun5229d ago

LOL @ 1

How do you guys not get that?....POLAND

Antan5229d ago

Ah!!! haha....b******s!!! I`m not as quick out of the blocks this morning .........

Morbid Bulldozer5229d ago

Not that small if you look at the map.

hay5229d ago

I guess no Alan Wake until polish say so.

StanLee5229d ago

I noted yesterday in the thread about the delay that the game was wrought with problems and mods deleted my God damn comment but it's the truth. The game has a bunch of problem and Microsoft keeps sending them back to the lab. Funny how mods deleted my comment but let fanboys say the dumbest sh*t on this site.

Raoh5229d ago

LMFAO

you get a bubble for that

DatNJDom815229d ago

then I'm all for it. This is the only game I care about on the 360 so if it gets better then Im all for it. Splinter Cell's story is really good and engrossing. Im pretty sure that the game is definitely going to be worth the wait

MazzingerZ5229d ago

Yeah right....treating gamers like kids. They will achieve in 1 month what they couldn't in 3 years?

Only dev that can say that is PD because it's true....Ubisoft and FR said the same about Haze not saying that the Splinter Cell will be bad because it won't but clearly they are not confident about their product.

FACTUAL evidence5228d ago

What Ubisoft means by, "delayed for polish", what it's trying to translate is: "HELL NO WHERE NOT GOING AGAINST HEAVY RAIN!"

you know they once said duke nukem forever was finished and all that was left for them to do was polish

we all know how that turned out

Jamescagney5229d ago

I don't think it's comparable really. DNF was in limbo for a very, very long time.

interrergator5229d ago

BULLSH*T heavy rain just got there release date last week and u delay it and tell me that u have to polish it give me a break

What has HR got to do with it?

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.

Bane351849d ago (Edited 1849d ago )

Yeah i thought ninja gaiden was gonna get remaster because it wasnt announced for backwards compatible til just now tho i would've been up for joy if they announced max payne 3 for backwards compatible today instead

hiawa231849d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane351849d ago (Edited 1849d ago )

@hiawa23 i think R* has plans to remaster MP3 at this point

Z5011849d ago

You couldn't play your copy of NG2 before this announcement?

Bane351849d ago (Edited 1849d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19931849d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5011849d ago

Kept your game, but no console to play it on?
No one sells 360's anymore?

bluebenjamin1849d ago

Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne

Gwiz1849d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin1849d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

1849d ago
Movefasta19931849d ago

facts, once you beat a souls game and do ng plus, you have the game downloaded. Once you return to ng1 and 2 you still can get your ass handed to you lol, the regular enemies are a threat, still attacking even when they are on the ground dismembered.

Gaming4Life19811849d ago

Agreed dark souls, bloodborne, and sekiro are overhyped games and dont compare to ninja gaiden 1 & , ninja gaiden 3 sucks.

What does BB have to do with NG2?
Why not insert Contra Shattered Soldier while you're at it.

bluebenjamin1849d ago

Ninja gaiden was once considered one of the hardest games ninja gaiden 2 has rpg elements so does bloodborn they have similar combat but ninja gaiden 2 just looks better doing it plus its fast pace and flashy combos removing limbs of foes remember 360 put more enemies on screen than ps3 on this game 360 had more dismemberment of limbs than the ps3 vs.360 had a better gpu but ps3 still to this day has an awesome cpu the ps3 had the prettiest ninja gaiden because of native 720 p while 360 pushed 640p now the one X has both higher rez and 360 style dismemberment But Ok for you contra ps2 version and nes

Movefasta19931849d ago

I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable

Z5011849d ago

Again. Why'd you pick BB?
Ninja Gaiden has ninja dog mode = easy
NG2 has a jump and block button
BB has none of those.

You could've picked a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta game. They're more similar to NG2 than BB.

What does PS3 have to do with this announcement? Your insecurities are showing.

Gaming4Life19811849d ago

I think they are being compared because of difficulty but I dont even think that is comparable imo. Ninja gaiden games are better though that's just facts.

Hungryalpaca1849d ago

And Forza is Better than MARIO Kart!!!!!

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin1848d ago

No Mario Kart is the best racer ever almost anyone can play

timotim1849d ago (Edited 1849d ago )

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!

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for July 2018 any good?

Neil writes: "Every single month we hear the same old thing about the Xbox Games With Gold titles. "We don't want that rubbish - we want decent games, we want AAA blockbusters, we want something different". Well, the free Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles being given away during the month of July pretty much tick those boxes. What's the chances there will still be complaints?"

Tom clancy and virtua fighter are great death sqaured is pretty cool idk about assualt

lxeasy2139d ago

Splinter cell conviction is great, vf 5 is fun. Haven't played the other two so I'm excited to try them out.

ApexWolf222139d ago

Great month for 360 titles, X1 titles remind me of early days when all they gave away were indies, I hope they dont start doing that again.

AG1002139d ago

at least you can play the 360 games on xb1 too lol

Goldby2138d ago

Now that there's gamepass, expect bugger AAA to have priority in that, more money for both the dev and Ms more likely

yomfweeee2139d ago

I though Plus was lackluster this month. Gold is way worse.

BQ322138d ago

Vf5 fs is the best fighting game of all time abd backwards compatible, so it is a huge win in my book.

annoyedgamer2138d ago

No these are pretty awful. Virtua Fighter is great and so is Splinter Cell but those are 360 titles.

lxeasy2138d ago

so what if there 360 titles it's still awesome

A new Tom Clancy adventure can be enjoyed on Xbox One due to Back Compat – Is it worth the return?

Carlos writes: "Xbox Backwards Compatibility has shown a strong start to 2018 with a number of top titles being made available to play on Xbox One, but whilst this week doesn’t bring quite as many new arrivals as the past few weeks, there is still one addition for us to get stuck into once more... and it’s one that’s sure to prove a popular addition."

TheRealHeisenberg2278d ago

No confusion at all. Just another game added to the list if anyone gets nostalgic.

Vectrexer2278d ago

Are we confused? We get games that we've been enjoyed before at no cost to us!

C-H-E-F2279d ago

"new"? an "old" Tom Clancy Adventure can be enjoyed on xbox one due to back capat is worth the return"

*Fixed*
