Splinter Cell 6 to enjoy Uncharted 2 influence?

As you're probably aware Splinter Cell: Conviction didn't start life as the game you'll see on shelves today.

Those of you who liked the look of Conviction in its infancy needn't worry though, some of the original features might see their way into the series yet.

Ubisoft's Patrick Redding and Maxime Beland told Xbox World 360 that many of the things Ubisoft was forced to leave on the cutting room floor may now make their way into Splinter Cell 6 - as well as other new features, including Uncharted 2-style 'abduction moves'.

[FangBlade]

I think every game should be influenced by Uncharted 2 - the best game in history of gaming.

[hoops]

No its not. Its one of the best games this generation but not overall.

[Jamegohanssj5]

Exactly. Vice City is the best game ever.

TGSI

[brazilianbumpincher]

because to me san andreas was much better than vice city

on topic, fangblade again thats personal opinion,but in will say its a FACT that uncharted 2 is one of the best games ever made period

[Nitrowolf2]

The best game ever is determined by Individual opinions

[omi25p]

best game of this generation, until mass effect 2 came out, now its second best :)

[Crusade]

Clearly every mega man game is collectively the best game ever.

[Deputydon]

Well, technically it's Super Mario Galaxy 2... but who goes by review scores...

[ShinMaster]

Proves how beast Uncharted is.

[vsr]

Can you mention a game that surpassed 100 plus reviews with 96 Meta-score plus UNIFIED GAME OF THE YEAR other than uncharted 2 ( Critics & Fans Choice game of the year)

[rockleex]

I'm not saying its the best game ever, because that's personal opinion.

Looking at its sales, critics reception, fans/gamer reception, awards won, and the quality of the game.

You can not deny that it has to be ONE of the best ever.

[hassi94]

I can name several but I'll leave you with just these few:

Mass Effect 2 (GOTY not known yet but 96 MC Average)
Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Again GOTY not known but 98 Average)
GTA IV (Think got majority of GOTY awards and 98 average)
LoZ:OoT (Got majority of GOTY awards and 99 average)

Don't fool yourself thinking the number of reviews has anything to do with how good the game is, you're just looking for excuses now.

It is a greatly polished game with many features and excellent graphics, but if anyone thinks it's the best game of all time they're idiots and completely just kidding themselves.

[Count]

Uncharted 2 is great, but diversity is also.

[cobraagent]

because there are so many gernes with different games. For example is Uncharted 2 better than Heavy Rain? No since you can't compare them in any possible way

[DigitalRaptor]

I can say Uncharted 2 is more fun than Heavy Rain, but you're right. Both are great games and shouldn't be compared.

[Rainstorm81]

Every game shouldnt be like uncharted 2, but i wish every game had U2's quality, if the next splinter cell has that type of production it will be great

[Shane Kim]

I've yet to see ME2 get over 150 awards and be the benchmark for todays games.

Every developer is comparing to Uncharted 2...not ME2.

Christ you bots...

[Weaksauce1138]

Unless they want to pay the bills, U2 sales were average before the pack in bundle for sales # inflation

[Commander_TK]

ME2 is a great game. It´s all opinion based. Not every1 thinks U2 is the gaming paradise

[mobijoker]

If you look at gameplay value,nothing comes close to oblivion.Even after four years its still ruling and it got over 3000 mods and they are growing each day-a never ending game i guess.Can any1 name another game that gave you so much fun and quality.

[rezzah]

I personally dont think everygame should be like UC2 because than no game would be original. Also we deffinitly will get tired of the same thing over and over. Besides...it would ruin any game Team Ico makes.

[fullmetal297]

HELL NO, the best game is the Half-life series. So great that it was ported to EVERY platform this gen and the Mac.

[04soldier]

first of all WE ALL know u suck at video games k sunshine uncharted 2 is THA only game your species of gamers has adapted to

[ATi_Elite]

HALF LIFE 2 PC is hands down the greatest game ever made then....

San Andreas Street Fighter 2 Pac Man Super Mario Zelda John Madden Metal Gear Solid Doom Sonic The Hedgehog Starcraft World of Warcraft Final Fantasy 7 Grand Turismo 3: A Spec Half Life 1 Counter Strike Gaiares R-Type Uncharted 2 Splinter Cell STALKER ARMA II Space Invaders Pitfall Star Wars: The Old Republic Mass Effect Killzone 2 Half Life 3 Battlefield 2 Resident Evil 4 and finally Halo

[Commander_TK]

All those games u listed r 1 of the best

[bjornbear]

i think it isn't expansive enough. in terms of design its one of the best ever, but actually being the best game ever is sub jective

mine is still deus ex, and that won't change until deus ex 3 IF IT LIVES UP TO HYPE.

but i agree, Uncharted 2 is the best designed game this gen, and easily a game to look at if you want to evolve your game-design =D the narrative / gameplay is unprecedented.

@ Krayzie: you mention a big list of PC games but omitted Deus Ex!! =O BLASPHEMY!! xD i agree w ur list generally though

[yewles1]

*sniff, sniff* I think this might heat up, it's a day late for a BBQ...

[MrGunny94]

No it Shouldnt... so you want a FPS,Sports,Racing Games or any other Third Person should always be influenced by Uncharted 2? To every game be a Uncharted 2 just with diffrent story and characters... please stop saying this stuff.. IMO Ghost Recon Future Soldier will beat Uncharted 2 in BEING THE BEST 3RD Person..

[PLAYstar]

It didn't achieved with a 1,2,3,4 and a 5. What makes you think 6 could?

[karan8624]

1 and 3 were two of the best game I have ever played

[chak_]

please stop splinter cell franchise.

Or rename it "sam for dummies".

It's nothing like the 3 first, the best of the series, no contestation possible.

[ElementX]

So because of one "dummies" game they should end the series? Every series has one title that doesn't live up to the others.

[chak_]

yes, but it's now ubi's main concern. accessibility. It's dont think SC6 will be anything like the first, more like the last one, even more simplified.

[dizzleK]

i'm going to say what needs to be said- uncharted 2 is probably the most overrated game this gen, not in terms of scores but in terms of hype and overestimating its influence.

[mrcash]

I think it's a great game, but i definitely agree with you. The gameplay was decent, but it was all the pieces that made it a great game.

[beans]

I just want a stealth Splinter Cell that surpasses Chaos Theory. They had the perfect formula once but seem to have lost touch like many others.

[Nykamari]

Chaos Theory was the best!

[Elven6]

The last generation Double Agent that was made by Ubisoft Montreal (Xbox, PS2, Wii) was actually pretty good. The 360, PS3, PC Double Agent was alright and had its moments and I haven't played Conviction yet.

[punisher99]

I liked Splinter Cell when it was all about sneaking and strategy. Now you can play it just like any other 3rd person shooter and the franchise is just nothing special no more.

[ranmafandude]

uncharted is influencing alot of games this generation lol.

[bjornbear]

rightly so! it did almost everything right, and merged elements better than any other game before it, games coming after still struggle to achieve its perfection, so clearly they need to study it =D

i bet you tons of devs are disecting uncharted 2 under a micro.-scope to see what they did right xD

[MariaHelFutura]

Add it to the list.

[emil1]

splinter from stealth to TPS just because kiddy x360 audience

[Fishy Fingers]

They need to take their influence from the early games in the series, when black was black and stealth ruled the way.

[omi25p]

PLEASE GOD: make ubisoft return splinter cell to its roots so they dont create another shocking installment to the splinter cell franchise, make it better than chaos theory, not completely different

[wenaldy]

So where's my Chaos Theory 2?

[WetN00dle69]

What can i say Uncharted 2 is one of the best!
Amazing Game play and story!

[theEnemy]

should drop that ridiculous Execute ability.

it makes the game piece of cake and not very challenging at all.

[Kingdom Come]

All though you have a strong point, you were never forced to use it, its optional...

[karan8624]

I used it like 4 times out of the entire game
But then again, the times where I used it, I was forced to. I've played every SC so far, and those times I looked everywhere for sneaky dark routes or ways to take them out myself. Not possible, you HAVE to use the M&E at some points

[bloop]

It's all very good taking ideas from UC2, but Ubi, just bring the franchise back to its roots already!! I enjoyed Conviction, but, it just wasn't Splinter Cell.

[lastdual]

It doesn't matter where it draws inspiration from, as long as Maxime Beland is involved it will be a disappointment for all stealth fans.

That man hates stealth games. Why they put him in charge of directing Splinter Cell is beyond me.

[Hades1337]

Challenging or not, Conviction is still a great game. It needed to change because the franchise was getting stale.

[zak94ma]

4years in development and he didn't time , now MGS gone splinter cell got screwed what we have left .

[abczby]

Everyone is getting so fed up about the Playstation 3 finally getting a fun game and claiming it is influencing everything around it when in reality better games than Uncharted 2 already exist. Examples: Mass Effect 2 and Super Mario Galaxy 2; Both have higher Metacritic scores. 'Nuff said

[karan8624]

Thats funny, because we arent claiming its influencing other games. The game DEVELOPERS are saying themselves that it is

[karan8624]

It better not be a fucking exclusive again. GO MULTIPLAT
I had to get conviction for PC, its an AWESOME game. PS3 should have got it as well

[AK46]

"I wish we could have done what I like to call 'Abduction Moves' too - certainly Uncharted 2 does them very well, where you're in cover and you grab the guy and drag him out of view. That was planned but it's something we had to cut out."

Wonder why they had to cut it out? Nvm it's probably the most obvious answer.

[joker2k8]

Uncharted 2 is one of the best games to be made this Gen. it just has perfect pacing and the gameplay is great and fun. i dont think any game has perfect gameplay there alway something that they can bo better.

[likedamaster]

Uncharted 2's a great game but it's surely no stealth game. As a matter of fact, far from it. Uncharted tried to do stealth and failed hard at it, we're all witnesses.

Just make it the best Splinter Cell yet, and us fans'll buy it.
