Oh yeah!! Got this game today right after school (actually during lunch but wasn't able to play it) and have been playing it all day! I am only on level... 4 I believe? The snow level where you have to get on the ship anyway. This game kicks ass. Whoever didn't like the old Splinter Cell games should even get this game because this one is much better IMO. The only thing that bothers me about this game is that it has the same sounds as Chaos Theory had... Example: When Sam whistles it is the same sound as Chaos Theory and when the terrorists say stuff it is the same thing. Anyway overall this is an amazing game. Graphicly this is the best looking game IMO. GRAW still kicks ass too So how is everyone else liking this game anyway? What is your oppinion on the voices for the characters and the game in general? _________________

It is pretty much like any other Splinter Cell game but with more options and things to do. It is a more advanced Splinter Cell. The graphis are alot better of course and it looks REALLY good. The AI is still kinda dumb but not as dumb I guess. The controlls are really nice. Pretty much like any other Splinter Cell game too besides a few slight changes. I haven't played multiplayer yet but I will do that soon eough. I bough this game for Single Player only pretty much but I will eventually get around to multiplayer. From what I experienced with the multiplayer demo, I like multiplayer alot more than in Chaos Theory or Pandora Tomorrow. Not only a little better but ALOT better. I also like how you can have 3 people on each side now too in multiplayer. On the single player side it is great and has great replay value to it for sure. Of course you can be on the NSA's side mostly or the JBA's side. Thats why it's called Double Agent. Anyway I give this game a 9.5 out of 10.
Also, you get sunglasses _________________

you go in a circle until you feel the controller vibrate, then you wiggle the stick back and forth until the pin drops? that is the way it was done in the previous games? and, that sounds kind of bad, but that is the best i can describe it for you.
Gamefly said they are shipping the game to me today. Hopefully, I will get it soon and start playing. I agree that it is a great single player game and story. Multiplayer is just a bonus, and if I have the time before GOW. _________________

You rotate the right thumbstick in circles untill the pin on the screen starts jumping up then you stop at that point in which the thumbstick is and move it around that area just a little tiny bit and then it will click and you will go to the next pin. Once you get to the next pin repeat what I told you. _________________

Sorry, it was a bad explanation, I know. I hope you get going and enjoy the game. They are normally really good. _________________

I love the way this game opens up where you in a mission and after you complete the mission it starts the opening credits. That's great. Also what did you guys do when you came to the moral crossroads and had to take the news guy out or let him live?
I tried to just shoot him in the leg but it killed him anyway. I fill like Mackey on the Shield. Is it just me are does Sam remind you of Jack Bauer 24? |

I didn't shoot him and then Jamie Washington shot him which kinda sucked. _________________

| Ok I was playing this game this weekend and I am a trying to take control of the boat. I am at the Helo pad at the back and it is telling me that I have one more person to kill but I can’t find anyone to kill. There a hatch on the helo pad but it won’t let me open it I wonder if I find that last person to kill if it then will let me open the hatch. Did any of you have this problem? |

I have no idea where you are on the boat level but press the "back" button and then go to your 3D Map. It will show you where enemies are. _________________

| It does but I can’t get to them. I just let the gas loose in the vent. System and then was told to go to the back of the boat and take out the captain but that’s where I hit a road block. I can go all around the boat and no one to be found alive. |

i am really liking the game...now. im a noob to the splinter cell series...and i can tell u at first....i was totally frustrated!!
as i am getting further along into the game i am really enjoying it...but unfortunately....im not to stealthy...although that is getting better for me as well!
i am playing it on normal..i can only imagine how damn crazy it must be on hard mode!
at the end of the shanghai mission...i actually screamed and pretty much stood up on my couch....freaked me out! (yeah...u can only imagine my reactions when i play Condemned!!)
i was proud of myself when i beat the snow mission - i think it was the 4th.
i havent tried out the online though...ive really heard mixed reviews....any comments?
also, from what i hear the co-op is very different than it was on chaos theory....i was looking forward to the co-op - i thought it would be like the perfect dark co-op....that was a blast! but from what i hear - its not actual missions....its more pvp???
anyway, i have pre-ordered gears of war and rainbow 6...hoping i wont be disaapointed in those either!! ~ch3my _________________ Some people are like a Slinky.....not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs. |
