Never a big fan of the series or Ubi in general, but I think they might hit the sweet spot with this one.....

My only concern is that these kind of interactive moments will be few and far between.  From the E3 demo it looked a little scripted and pre-placed in terms of gameplay.  Now I hope I'm wrong and if I am then this will be one of the best games in a long while.  If its as intuitive and as random as one of the classic Hitman games are then this is going to be a contender for GOTY.  If these scenes are scripted or are in less then half the game then it will be a total bummer.

I like this new direction, even if Sam lost the homeless beard.

I like the objective explanations. They're simply amazing, and will defiantly keep me focus on the objective and not ignore what I have to do.

holy crap, how do you do all that in gameplay? dropping down, headshotting a guy behind you AND in front of you.

Ubi Montreal sure likes their climbing in games.

Thank God they dropped their last system and made this one. It doesnt completely abandon the mechanics of the prior games like the original build, but it adds features that evolve it into something more exciting. I know my friends always complained that you had to be extremely patient to be good at the previous games.

Maybe I'm alone in thinking Chaos Theory is far and away the best Splinter Cell game and wouldn't mind simply having more of that.

I played the 1st Splinter Cell, twas good, but too much emphasis on stealth, stopped me from finishing and put me off the franchise. I might actually play Conviction. I like my stealth as an option, not a forced path

If you aren't excited about Conviction, then you might need to check your damn pulse!

Keep 'em coming Ubisoft.

This demo was unbelievably awesome. I love their take on a stealth game not making the main character weak, but more of a predator.  This game is an absolute day freaking one for me.

"Getting fierce in the bathroom." That can be taken a few ways!!

Seriously though, this game looks great. I am glad they brought it back with a new look.

Finally a splinter cell game that will actually top chaos theory. I have to admit that double agent sucked.

You're not alone. I'm with you 100%. While this looks good, it just doesn't look like Splinter Cell to me. To much shooting and action and not nearly enough stealth. When I think Splinter Cell what they have shown isn't what comes to my mind. Oh Fisher, what have those money hungry bastards done to you?

@Cerza: I actually believe this is a pretty good path to go down since the story seems to be about revenge and not about fisher going to North Korea in military gear. but I agree Chaos Theory was a good game

I've always enjoyed the emphasis on stealth in Splinter Cell games, its why I played them. But it looks liek they are providing a genuine rambo-esc sort of option as well. It also looks like there are definitely stealth options in this game, just for the trailer he took the guns blazing route. I was thinking Bourne throughout a bunch of sequences

@chickendoughnut: I could care less about the story to be honest. I just want that Chaos Theory gameplay. It almost feels like they're taking the Splinter Cell storyline way too seriously. No reason for Sam to need a revenge story. I just want him to kick ass.

This video's better than the demo one.  Brightness makes a big difference.
