New Splinter Cell Conviction media expected today

splintercelconvictiona3

Take a look at this. Mouse over the top bullet hole.

Ubi’s saying nothing, but you probably wouldn’t bet against a new Splinter Cell Conviction trailer at some point today.

We’ll let you know when the magic happens.

I’m gonna replay Double Agent, I think. Wicked game.

Chaos Theory was meant to be the best in the series, IIRC.

I’ve only played the first one. Thought it lost it towards the end really. I guess the following games fixed all the cracks etc but never really felt compelled to go back to them despite keeping an eye on them.

Chaos Theory is an all time classic.

Mike is just… Well, he’s wrong for even thinking that Double Agent is good. It was god damn awful. Uninspired and predictable.

I mean, without Amon Tobin the game has much less chance of being completely badass , and if it’s still emo Fisher, I am gonna be a bit pissed, but otherwise I am really excited for this.

I loved it. EG loved it too, iirc. Gave it 9/10. I know who I’d rather believe! ;)

At least you admitted you and EG are wrong.

If Doublt Agent is a 9/10 then Chaos Theory is like an 11/10.

The disparity in quality needs to be noted, and if that game came out now, rather than at the start of the generation, it would’ve marked MUCH lower.

It shows the first video, then continues and zooms into close up of building/complex. The transmission then loses connection and you have to return to the main menu.

probably 15 seconds if that.

Edit – more details:

talks about being someone else, but returning to what’s important. The country looks like north america, but it’s kinda difficult to tell.

Edit 2 – It’s the Washington Monument to be exact.

I get none of that. It ends with “let sleeping dogs lie” and that’s it and sends me back to the three bullet holes again.

The top bullet hole will reveal a brand new vid at some point today.

Not sure why it’s working for me then, I’m in the UK if that helps.

I just click the top bullet hole, which then causes the first, and then second, video to play.

You will see :)
