UbiDays: Splinter Cell: Conviction Absent

Kombo writes:

An excited "Gee whiz!" likely rang through the halls of your house this morning when you stumbled upon Kombo's UbiDays coverage. "Shaun White, Beyond Good and Evil, Raving Rabbids, and Prince of Persia? This is the best day ever!"

But no, my dear reader, this most certainly is not the best day ever.

For you see, Sam Fisher was not at the show.

yes, my bubbles got stolen and i was banned because of my comment stating the fact that this game was going " back to the drawing board" to pick up/ copy/paste some pointers from hideo kojimas latest masterpiece.

some members here were so hurt by my comment that they went ahead and reported me, stole bubbles and cried that i was lying.

LOL...........who looks like the fool now?

being that i was right and the crybabies were just hurt, i should get my bubbles back. The trolls are trying to silence the truth....but the truth eventually leaks out.

you know kojima productions cut some type of deal with ubi montreal...who knows maybe koji would give sam fisher a hand:D

I remember when i was playing splinter cell chaos theory (in full stealth as in 0 kills as a stealth game is supposed to be played), i came across a guard who i interrogated and asked him for ammo. He replied its in so so and so place but i can't shake any ammo off of him lol. An obvious shot at metal gear solid

I don't know what's going on with Splinter Cell, but I do know you'll be the one looking like an even bigger fool if it turns up at E3! lol

3 - man, i think the mgs effect is really starting to kick in. lets see what the mgs4 effect has done so far
-turned biased reviewers into unbiased reviewers...CHECK

-scraps games that were supposed to compete......CHECK

-showed reviewers what true next gen gaming is....CHECK

- picking up ps3 sales to get ready and outsell the 360 in may....(THIS WILL BE A CHECK.)

mgs4 is upon us and it isn't just bringing snake with it........

4 - well it has to wait and see what the big dog is going to do first.
think saints row2 coming out 6+ months after GTA4 so the devs can learn and add stuff.

its was the same with Splinter cell Conviction and MGS4

This year has definetly been a total reverse from last year. The 360's losing exclusives and experiencing delays. And the Ps3 is outselling it and getting all the positive press. Some 360 owners are even suspecting bias in the review sites like PS3 owners were last year.

Almost every highly anticipated games are getting delayed these days. At least they get more time to work on it making it have better quality and gameplay.

I have a lot of respect for this franchise, because personally it's one of the most funnest games I've ever played. I mean pure fun.

I even bought a new Graphic Card (RADEON X1650 pro 512ram) just because Double Agent (Worst and dissapointing game of the series) required Shader 3.0 which my old Graphic card didn't have. So yeah I'm a fan of the series.

If they really got back to the drawing board to maintain the spy core of this game, well delay it. I have no problems with it.

I agree. SCDA was woeful. I was very disappointed. Chaos Theroy remains the best of the series, I hope they get back to that game and remember why people like SC in the first place.

I dont know but, the new one seemed to be going in a completely different direction in order to stay fresh and win some fans back after DA. But now who know what they're doing. Maybe an open world Assassins Creed type approach. Either way I hope they make it good and they should just forget about MGS4. They're not likely to equal that Magnum Opus and should bother trying. Focus your energies on just making your game good, not worrying about someone elses.

13.2 - Exactly
They don't need to compare their games with MGS4 or with any other. SC is great as it is, just improve on it.

Double Agent tried to change the style a bit and add some purpose to the story apart from saving the world, but it just felt wrong. They can keep the "same save the world" stories, just keep the gameplay as top notch as it was on the first 3.

And yeah... Chaos Theory was THE BEST of the 3. I love that game.

The new look for Sam just sucked. Come on, it's Splinter Cell, not some Bourne wannabe. Bring back the Sam we all have come to know and love.
