Splinter Cell

What do you lot think ?

I personally love this game to death i lil bit linear in pathways... but those paths have so many ways to be done.

shoot em, use em as a 'hostage', stealth around them, distract them...

Im only a short way in, just got the predator heat vision thing

Seriously - play it! You wont be disappointed! I wasnt into this type of game tbh, but its changed my view completely. Defo worth a play.

It's worth a play. Had me on the edge of my seat (ok, floor) a few times, especially towards the end where I finished the game killing the last guy with my last round of ammunition!

Gets a bit "samey" here and there, and I doubt I'd install it again for a replay, but I enjoyed it none the less.

Splinter Cell is just pure game quality

It starts fast and really doesn't let up. There aren't that many full on fighting scenes, it is a more stealth & stun game. It is totally addictive.

I've played it through once and now about 1/3 of the second time around, just want to see if there are different ways of achieving the same goal.

No spoiler but one level with mines...

i was thinking bout buying this game for me ps2

is it actually good ? cause i always get mixed reactions

[Bindibadgi]

The mine level is seriously hard! took me a good few goes to get that right

As for the last 4 guys - i had run out of bullets the 2nd time round playing it and had to use a combo of sticky cameras, electro-shockers and rubber rings to knock them out lol

I actually didn't like the game, but then i love running around, guns blazing killing every1 in sight. Splinter cell involved alot of sneaking and hiding which seemed a bit pointless. With the same equipment, and alot more guns, you'd have 1 of the best games ever.

But that's the whole idea of the game!? Stealth!?!? It isnt quake

Do u really think government operatives run around foreign countries guns blazing? No.

Does George Bush count as a government operative??

The whole idea of the game is to preserve your ammo and be stealthy. Quite a few times I ran out of ammo and had a very tough time trying to end the levels with no ammo whatsoever. Its a different genre to fps, its a tactical espionage game, like MGS but with less carnage.

cool i really enjoyed metal gear solid, it was a great game

[silent ben]

No way was metal gear solid (the first 1 anyway) stealthy. As soon as i got the box, i ran around in it all the time, wheres the skill in playing a game where you are a box with little legs who hides whenever someone walks round the corner.

Lol i've gotten quite a way into Splinter Cell and sortof gave up, I have full ammo, stickyshockers etc because I hardly ever kill anyone, I do my damndest to get behind them, grab them and knock them out, there are times when guns are unavoidable though. Overall a good game but it didn't make me want to finish it...
