Lindsay Lohan And Other Hollywood Celebrities Attend Splinter Cell: Conviction Launch Party

The Splinter Cell: Conviction launch party was HUGE, with many Hollywood celebrities (such as actresses Lindsay Lohan, Adrianna Costa, Aisha Tyler, Jasmine Dustin, Audrina Patridge, Bai Ling, actors Chris Evans, Michael Rosenbaum, Robbie Amell, Patrick Fugit, singer Jessica Sierra, and porn star Mary Carey) attending the event.

crack party? Nice collection of D list people.

Nothing against Xbox or Natal but showing up at a party where everyone is on crank isn't going to help sales.

RankFTW5144d ago

I can honestly say that I didn't recognise any of those people and were half of those women porn stars?

lociefer5144d ago

lol ya, i bet they think sam fisher is another one of their fans

Truly an achievement for re-constructive surgeons. Except for the akimbo breasts - she must have had those done in Mexico for cheap.

For reference, Mary Carey before the procedures:

Oh, and lesbianism/ partying/ drug-abuse/ general trashiness isn't treating poor Lindsay too well. A couple more years and a bleach blond dye job and she'll be Courtney Love's lookalike.

WildArmed5143d ago

lol
I remember that she was at the Heavy Rain launch party too. O_O

(or atleast there was an article about it)

Government Cheese5143d ago

This is how wannabe celebrities get in the spotlight.

iNcRiMiNaTi5143d ago (Edited 5143d ago )

I only recognized lex luthor from smallville and the human torch dude from the fantastic 4 movies. Didn't know their names before and probably wont care to remember them anyway.

LordMarius5143d ago

Really none of yall know who Chris Evans is?

rucky5143d ago

All I know is he was the Human torch and I saw him in Sunshine. Guy kinda reminds me of Chris O Donnell.

LordMarius5143d ago

well everyone will know who he is when he stars as Captain America

Bubbly5143d ago

You mean when he ruins the movie as Captain America?

Adexus5143d ago

There's quite a few who I recognised, Chris Evans being one of them, Michael Rosebaum (Lex Luthor from Smallville), Aaron Paul (Jesse from Breaking Bad, he was also in The Last House on the Left), C.S Lee (Masuka from Dexter), David Zayas (Batista from Dexter), Aisha Taylor (Marianne Taylor from 24 season 4), Chris Masterton (Francis from Malcolm in the Middle), Balfour (He was in season 1 and 6 of 24).

They're the only ones who I knew.

I don't get it. Why is the word "celebrity" tied to xbox events now?

mirroredderorrim5143d ago (Edited 5143d ago )

Because Microsoft probably needs celebrity help to push hardware/software.
Personally I think it's bullsh!t. I don't even like when Sony uses "celebrities".

Keep those f*&ks away from our games.

Would you hit it?
http://www2.pictures.zimbio...

"not even alcohol would make her attractive"

CARRIERHASARRIVED5143d ago (Edited 5143d ago )

I'd hit it.

With something long and hard too.

A tire iron comes to mind. Call it "repellent".

CellularDivision5143d ago

They use celebrities because Xbox is popular, its 2nd place, after all.

Nitrowolf25143d ago

sh1t man
wtf is MS/UBI thinking inviting her
She is only making the game look unattractive

Megaton5143d ago (Edited 5143d ago )

Yeah, that's pretty funny how they're using "celebrities" more often now. Getting them to come and slap some balls with Natal and make some PR vids saying how incredible it was. It's all fake. That's why I don't like the VGAs. None of the celebrities who take part give a flying f*ck about gaming. They're just pretending to be interested for the sake of whoever paid them to be there.

Darkfiber5144d ago

I've only heard of two of those people. Why is everyone considered a "celebrity" these days?

Chris3995144d ago

Conditions ordaining celebrity:

- Give a hand-job/ blow-job/ gay kiss to someone moderately famous (used to be Presidential status and up required, now any C list reality star will do).
- Go to a multitude of parties simply because you are rich. Aka, the socialite.
- Get a reality t.v. show.
- Start a blog.
- Have a famous person's baby (again C list will do).
- Write a scathing book about someone currently deceased.
- Have lots and lots and lots of Plastic surgery (Jocelyn Wildenstein, aka "Cat Lady" - she was also a wealthy lunatic, which certainly helped).
- Write a self-help book.
- Go on Oprah.

And that's just the tip of the ice-berg, really.

Mo0eY5143d ago

A main component that you forgot Chris:

- Must have been to rehab at least two times

jlar5143d ago

I'd be insulted if Lindsay Lohan showed up to my party. lol
-I wouldn't even brag about that, rather I'd try to hide that.

Baka-akaB5143d ago

i'd make the bouncer refuse them at the entry , but then again i'd probably close shop soon , since it's those type of vapoware people that pass for celebrities now .

Brewski0075143d ago

I wouldnt call that line up of stars classy at all. Way to bring the tone of a good event down. The porn star is just the Cherry on top :P

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.

Bane351850d ago (Edited 1850d 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

hiawa231850d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane351850d ago (Edited 1850d ago )

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

Z5011850d ago

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

Bane351850d ago (Edited 1850d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19931850d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5011850d ago

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

bluebenjamin1850d ago

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

Gwiz1850d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin1850d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

1850d ago
Movefasta19931850d 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.

Gaming4Life19811850d 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.

bluebenjamin1850d 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

Movefasta19931850d ago

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

Z5011850d 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.

Gaming4Life19811850d 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.

Hungryalpaca1850d ago

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

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin1850d ago

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

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

lxeasy2140d ago

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

ApexWolf222140d 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.

AG1002140d ago

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

Goldby2139d ago

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

yomfweeee2140d ago

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

BQ322140d ago

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

annoyedgamer2140d ago

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

lxeasy2139d 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."

TheRealHeisenberg2279d ago

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

Vectrexer2279d ago

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

C-H-E-F2280d ago

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