    I don't own a 360, and PC sounds like a mess. Does anyone know if it's a Timed Exclusive?

    I think it is. It would be the first non playstaion Splinter cell if its not.  
     
    And when was the last Ubiosoft console exclusive?

    Actually, a certain other games website came up with a specific date you can expect a PS3 one, just based on how quickly the last Splinter Cell games came out on a different console. September 12. That's probably wrong, but by next year, it'll be out

    DRM's been bypassed. But you didn't hear that from me.

    Yes. The first, Pandora Tomorrow and Double Agent were all released months after the Xbox/360 versions. It's possible, time will only tell.

    Word. In game voip is a welcome feature in PC games but frankly, no one uses it because we are all either on ventrilo, teamspeak, gsc, skype, steamchat voice; all of which (minus steamchat) provide ultra high quality voice, miles ahead of what xbox live and psn provide, not to mention that you can hold voice chats whenever you want, across games or even when you are not playing, or 24/7 like me.  
     
    So in the end, in game voip on PC sounds kind of useless when you have 3rd party apps that do the job a million times better and independently of games.  
     
    Edit: Oh, and there will be no PS3 version.

    All the other Splinter cells where not exclusive. And came out within a year for the PS. I expect this to be no different. Some are saying about August.

    I will bet anybody that it will be on the PS3 by at least early 2011 and I would suspect by Christmas of this year.

    Not a problem. Check out this article the Tested guys did about using console controllers with the PC:
     http://www.tested.com/news/how-to-make-console-gamepads-play-nice-with-pc-and-mac/203/ "
    Still does not support any chat for co-op "
    Not that I'm trying to get you to buy it on the PC, but doesn't xfire work? I'm admittedly no longer a PC gamer, so maybe that's no longer an option, but that's what everyone used to use online. That and TeamSpeak and Ventrillo. Man, I don't really miss those days, so I can't say I can blame you for waiting.

    In theory, as if the server to which you connect to is down you won't play the game. Also the DRM was various problems of its own.

    Won't go multi for a while is my guess. I don't understand the point of having just one console. The more the merrier.

    I'm gonna call it and say that they're not going to release it on the PS3. Ubisoft has stated multiple times that the game is not going to be on the PS3. I can understand if they say it once before the release, and then change their mind, but they've posted this on their twitter a week or so ago in addition to all the other statements before the game was released.

    Yeah. Those two open world Naruto action RPGs, Rise of a Ninja and The Broken Bond. I only have ROAN but it's freaking sweet, really fun and you get a lot of upgrades and stuff. Oh, and the battle system is a fighting game. Really cool game. I will probably be getting TBB soonish. 
     
    Also, there is apparently a project that Frederic Gemus is doing which is only slated for the 360. We don't know what it is yet though. If you're wondering, Frederic Gemus is one of the creators of Assassin's Creed.  
     
    Here is list of the MS only games I found from Wikipedia: America's Army: True Soldiers, Dark Messih of Might and Magic: Elements, Far Cry Instincts: Predator, Import Tuner Challenge, and the two Naruto games. And of course Splinter Cell.
     
    The only PS3 exclusive they've done is Haze. I actually played the demo of that and liked it a lot.

    Red Steel 2?
