Substantial franchise' returning as Xbox exclusive
AM OXM editor hypes up next month's huge announcement

Tuesday 13-Apr-2010 11:05

Official Xbox Editor Jon Hicks has told CVG that the mag will next month reveal the return of a "substantial franchise" - as an Xbox exclusive.

The Next Month page of the latest issue of UK magazine says a 'gaming classic' is set to return, as you can see here:

Hicks told us: "It's a very substantial franchise and it's going to be a very big surprise. A good one, though - we're really looking forward to it."

A 'very big surprise'? We likey. But what could it be, do you reckon?

On the whole, Splinter Cell Conviction moves the series in a couple of new directions, with new elements that are well thought out and polished. It doesn't do anything groundbreaking and sometimes abandons these fresh ideas for much shallower out and out gunning, but it's consistently solid and satisfying throughout.

The key is that none of those new additions are overused and ultimately the game is still routed in stealth, which is what Fisher does best. If this is the new direction of Splinter Cell, if Sam never finds full time employment again, then we're quite looking forward to the old man's future.


Uppers
* More tactical scope
* Fast paced, flowing gameplay
* Mark and Execute works perfectly

Downers
* Black and white colour pallete dominantes
* AI sometimes shows stupidity
* Five hours is nowhere near long enough

Splinter Cell was in need of a refresh and that's exactly what Ubisoft has delivered. Conviction manages to tweak the tried and tested formula without ruining the stealth gameplay, delivering some of the best action gaming I've played this year. To get the most out of the package you're going to need to play through the co-op game modes as well as the short but sweet single-player campaign, but both are excellent and well worth the time. Sam Fisher might be an angry man, but stick Conviction in your 360 and you'll be smiling from ear to ear as you slam a man's head into a urinal.

This isn't the Splinter Cell of yesteryear. Sam Fisher is losing patience, which in turn translates into speedier stealth and a lot more bullets than before. It's hard not to feel a twinge of disappointment if you're a fan of the series. Sam's newest adventure doesn't offer the challenge you may be expecting, and recent stealth-action hybrids like Metal Gear Solid 4 and Batman: Arkham Asylum provide much more satisfying single-player experiences. Yet stellar storytelling, fantastic co-op play, and rewarding executions make Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction a legitimately great game that delivers frequent surges of excitement. Between the brief thrills of freeing your partner from a chokehold and the sharp adrenaline rush of a bloody execution, Conviction will leave a mark on your memory.

quote:

Conviction's stylish presentation and intuitive cover mechanics prove that Ubisoft can make a highly polished product, but for the amount of game you get, the price seems sorely inflated. I enjoy short games much more than overlong, 20-some-odd-hour affairs, and Conviction completely cuts everything from its story that doesn't serve both the narrative and the action; the game clearly puts quality above quantity and I appreciate that immensely. Just making the game longer definitely wouldn't have made it better, but even with multiple playthroughs (not that you earn anything new or get different endings for successive attempts), it's hard to recommend the AAA price tag.

En de Locust Queen is de moeder van Marcus. Op het einde leven ze allemaal lang en gelukkig.

Beter verneuken ze het niet.
