Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
Game » consists of 20 releases. Released Apr 13, 2010
Splinter Cell: Conviction is the fifth installment in Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell franchise. Sam Fisher breaks apart from the Third Echelon in order to find the people responsible for the death of his daughter, only to find that not everything is what it seems.
Splinter Cell Xbox 360 exclusive!
Yeah OK, Ubisoft's Q3 earning (which is from January 2009) says Conviction is STILL a 360 exclusive, so that means it was announced as an exclusive before as I thought.
Come on Jeff and Ryan, get on your game!
@Player1: Really? I was SURE that it was exclusive before, let me look this up.Yeah OK, Ubisoft's Q3 earning (which ... [more]
@Player1: Oh, I think it looks great. It has a very cinematic look to it and it means more in-game ... [more]
As far as i remember weren't the older Splinter Cell games also (timed) Xbox or Xbox 360 exclusives? but yet they still saw life on PS2, PS3 and the PC.
Well I loved what I saw, the bit in the bathroom at the beginning looked like a cutscene.
I love how the objectives are projected onto the surroundings. Sort of like how Fisher used to have the green lights, but they were not really there.
@RHCPfan24: Did you even watch it??? Gawddddd

Never really played, splinter cell but from looks of it, it looks pretty sweet. I hope we get a demo on XBL.
" Splinter Cell Taken: Liam Neeson Edition.Naw, but the game looks good. "
Hahaha, so true, now that I look back on the trailer and E3 gameplay demo.
" Anybody see this coming? Or was it a big as shock to you as it was for me?Either way, that demo looked incredibly sharp, and the story looks promising."
Considering Ubi always called it 360 exclusive, and even went as far as saying "PS3 cant handle TEH AI'S!!!!" I was kind of surprised to see it as an exclusive .... NOT.
I still dont dig Spliter Cell. Have played through the past ones and have never been captivated by them. I do like some of the things presented in them, but I always considered it the poor mans Metal Gear. Why? Maybe because of the linear structure of the game. Though it makes me wonder, Splinter Cell has always been scored nicely, why Velvet Assassin, a game that does it in the same fashion (its a copy paste) fails everywhere?
Anyway, Conviction seems to fix some of my previous issues, so if it is ever released on PC (the only way to play an SC game) then I will give it a shot.
tthis game looks sick man.
It was always exclusive, but I don't really care if it ended up on the PS3 or not....the game looked absolutely amazing and was one of the biggest shocks of the MS press conference. I'm really looking forward to this game now and I'm actually surprised that it's coming out this year. I'm very glad that they demoed the game because I hated the pre-E3 teaser trailer and didn't really like the trailer they showed on stage, but that demo was awesome!
