They tired having Splinter Cell in shining daylight before in Double Agent. It never worked then either.

No I mean the sticky jumpy climby whack a mole tps.
The new TR is an open world survival horror. Admittedly, the shtty qtes do remind me of that pos, I’ll give you that.

Anyone concerned about Sam’s voice should watch this:

… although im still concerned, definitely not a day one purchase for me anymore. Makes me quite sad actually.

No Ironside? Aw. They should’ve rebooted it and set it in the 80s with retro tech.

Fucking yawn. Seriously. Conviction was the first Splinter Cell game that had an interesting story and now this? What is this anyway? A sequel? Because i saw Sam jumping and running like he is 15 and the new voice definitely sounds a lot younger.

OK I’ve changed my opinion. I think it looks and sounds pretty good.
