[360] Splinter Cell: Conviction

To be fair, even the older SC games weren't pure stealth, there were spots late in that you have to fight your way through enemies who know where you are. Those parts generally sucked.

I agree

It is good that the supposed super-spy has gotten some skills when it comes to fighting, but I still want the stealth to be there, to pass enemies unnoticed...I really don't want this game to be like, be in the dark, mark and execute, proceed
 
a demo for this is rumored to be coming on the Assassins Creed 2 360 version this tuesday

or not
Now that I look at the card that came with my copy of AC2 I realize it says nothing about a demo. It says "Free exclusive Splinter Cell Conviction Download" That probably means it's an exclusive bit of media or a shitty screensaver. It's definitely not a demo because according to the instructions you download it from their site.

Framerate looks horrible in the latest vids. Hopefully a borked capture, but the tearing is still evident. :( Would definitely have preferred the 360 version for co-op.
 
So it seems confirmed that as a Splinter Cell game, this entry will completely and utterly fail.

Another victim of casualization :(

For me, this is good news and a reason to be interested in this game (please don't hate me)...I don't like hard core stealth games: give me some action!
That is why I could enjoy MSG4 for instance...it was not hard core at all.
If the devs are smart, there is always the possibility to introduce a 'hard' difficulty mode for the ultimate stealth ninjas out there...(I think MGS4 had this as well)
 
Yeah, the problem is that they didn't add options. In this game you HAVE to kill the enemies to get past them, there's not even a knock out option. The developers basically removed stealth and replaced it with action : /

Oh, I understand...it *may* not be a good game in the sense of a Splinter Cell successor but if we forget for a moment its legacy; I suspect this to be a great game on its own, because the few things I watched...just looked great :mrgreen:
 
Still not sure about this game. The last one just totally burnt me. Didn't even finish it & finally sold it. :( At least I got some stealth playing Batman AA. :)

What's with the stupid black and white effect : /

Also, did they go back to the first SC engine? Graphically DA and even CT look better : /
 
Nah not vs DA becouse IMO DA was fugly!

What does stand out though is the texture res, would be wise to make them higher res for PC atleast or perhaps better streaming engine for both.
 
Ah bugger. More time for Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2. I am disappointed. :p


I do hope this means polishing the framerate & tearing on 360 though I won't hold my breath on that.
