    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.

    Why can't we just have a straight up Chao Theroy clone?

    I was a big fan of the older Splinter Cell's, the one's on the original xbox and co. I was uber put off by Double Agent and this new one cause they're adding too much of a dumb "duuudeee my life sucks being secret agent duuude" story. I could be wrong but hey I judge.


    I want to see ridiculous gadgets, cool moves, uber terrorists to be killed. Something like Call of Duty 4's story but from a stealthy point of view. That would be good. Enough of this solo crap. Also would be easy to attach co-op if it was like Chao Theory or whatever.

    Because then you would be complaining that it was a Chaos Theory clone.

    We gamers are never happy, never ever happy.


    Actually, as far as Splinter Cell goes, I'd be fine if they never made another one. I never really liked the cumbersone feel of Sam Fischer compared to his more agile counterpart, Agent 47. Also, you could do whatever the hell you wanted to people in Hitman most of the time. Fischer had all these regulations.

    They need to make another Hitman.

    Whoah, whoah, whoah. Sam Fisher is a pretty nimble dude. If he can hang in a narrow hallway in a splits position at 50, he's gotta be pretty fit. I was totally fine with Double Agent. I just wish there were more night missions.

    Because I've played Chaos Theory already.  If they can do Conviction as they wanted to, and do it right, then I think it could be a way more interesting a fun game.

    That's exactly what I want.  I even liked double agent ( I got it for the original xbox) because it was still the same sneaking around with cool gadgets and interesting back story.  Right now, I just want conviction to come out and I shudder at the thought of where they are taking this franchise.

    I liked Double agent, and I'm curious to see where they go with Conviction. I do wish there was more night missions though. Something about skulking around at night, even without the equipment, felt cool.

    I just don't want the original plan they had for Conviction. While it was an interesting idea, it would make more sense for a game like Hitman or Assassin's Creed, not SC. I would enjoy a Splinter Cell game with "moral choices" like in Double Agent, but with an improvement over the level design and gameplay of Chaos Theory.

    Um, yeah the new splinter cell sucks.  You're right, they're trying to go for an emo sam fisher and it's really off the mark.
