Splinter Cell Conviction can be finished in 12 hours

“two bullets is going to kill you” makes the game sound pretty badass to me. I’ve never really payed much attention to the Splinter Cell games and never played any but I think I might get this one Sounds really challenging even though they say you can finish it in 12 hours.

Sounds quite long for this gen.

£40 for 12 hours? That’s £3.33 an hour.

Pfft. I’d rather go down the pub for that.

…

And that “realistic” option sounds good; *IF* you can kill the enemies in 1 or 2 shots too.

Games being made hard by reducing your stats and upping there’s are just shit WRT to difficulty levels. So most then TBH.

@Psychotext
Yep that’s on the upper side of a lot of SP campaigns these days. Didn’t the last SC have some interesting MP stuff too?

Sounds good, and makes it more likely for me to play through it twice like I did with Double Agent.

Watched the E3 live playthrough on Co-Op and it looks like a must-buy for me! \o/

Ubisoft ‘Realistic’ isn’t all that hard. At least it never has been before.

All you have to do is play the game a bit more slowly…

What Retroid said! Love SC and 12 hours sounds just about right to me! Cannot wait for this, definitely one of my most anticipated for the year!

@Ghz: Rainbow Six Vegas was pretty hard on realistic.

I found it pretty straightforward.

Practically the only times when I failed a mission was because of the ridiculously stupid squad AI not taking cover and getting shot to pieces in the middle of the room. Which meant that I had to put myself in the line of fire to go save them… Which I often would, only for them to walk straight back there and get shot again!!

Mission failed.

Good grief!!!

I’m going to stop thinking about it now…

12 hours in a Splinter Cell game means you have to be effing good at it. It will lasty me like 300 hours, if I decide to buy it

Still not going to buy it, because PC PORT

What I don’t like about the Splinter Cell games is the amount of time you spend with your night goggles on.
It kinda makes the graphics end of things seem pointless really.
I still haven’t bothered to finish chaos theory because of it.
Still that’s just my take on it and I mean no disrespect to the franchise.

I can’t see why anyone would have a problem with 12 hours. I yield to no one in my disdain for how short games have become but 12 hours for an actiony stealth game is fine with me, as long as that’s a relatively skilled playthrough.

@reask: This game does look like a different animal though.

hitnrun, what do you mean, “how short games have become”?
Are you daft? Games are getting LONGER.

Ocarina of Time was like, 40+ hours.

That’s also an RPG.

“I found it pretty straightforward.”

Well aren’t you a clever parrot.

I thought it was just the right balance of difficult / achievable. Usually when you play games on insane / realistic / batshit mental they just give you f’all health, the enemies loads and they turn the AI into aimbot central.

1. Lutz it also has mp if u think it’s too short for u. not that 12 hours isn’t enough. because it is. at least for this kind of game it is.
2. reask u have no idea what game we r talking about here!

endgame: When did I say 12 hours was too short?

Well, we can’t all be FPS kings, I suppose.

Hehe…

You shut your whore mouth!

\o/

People saying it will be logner, becuase splinter cell takes longer….

This game clearly is trying to avoid slowing you down, and avoiding trial and error, so I wouldn’t expect that. It moves and acts more like an action game, in the demo there was hardly any sneaking.

But it looks stunning, and I would pay for it if it were £10 an hour!

@endgame.I have heard it is going to be very good.
I will most likely check it out.
I was a little disappointed with chaos though.
Edit. BTW is there a demo available?

How did you hear it was going to be very good? Not even the developers can predict that yet!

Lol!

The heat is really getting to you isn’t it PUD…

Put it this way, rubber just fell off the bottom of this keyboard here.

…

It’s hot. I am wet.

“It’s hot. I am wet.”

Oh baby…

My cheeks* are sliperry. And it is funny… But I am fuckign uncomfortable.

*Not my face cheeks. Now will you climax Psycho?

No, you’ve ruined it now by saying my name.

So, can anyone tell me who else can last twelve hours?

I’m doing well if I go for 12 minutes. Wait, what are we talking about again?

my nickname’s Fast’n'furious. I must admit I added “Furious” myself

Hehe

Psychotext could maintain himself, all the while Blerk plays Splinter Cell.

But they have been known to swap those jobs.

Olympic performances. Remember that.

/flexes muscle

Oh yes, i remember now. xD

(great job, on that joke continuity)

I hear richard likes to ride bikes
