[Game] Splinter Cell: Conviction

[Yoshiro]

Is it just me or does this game feel more like the original rainbow 6 titles in some aspects than Vegas?

Anywho, I am really liking this game. For those of you who can get over Ubi's DRM I definitely suggest checking it out. A fun time is to be had (in my opinion).

(please do not use this thread to discuss said DRM, think we have another one on it, use that one).

I have the 360 version (I have more friends on XBL) and yeah, it's a lot of fun. If you haven't tried the co-op story yet get on that cause it's pretty essential to the single player campaign if you're into the whole story thing, and it's almost as long as the single player.

And yeah with all the different assault rifles and a cover system similar to the Vegas games, it's a different game. Feels like Rainbow Six + Jason Bourne... but lots of fun

Mark and execute is pretty damn fun.

The AI is pretty bull**** when it comes to spotting you. They can't seem to see me when I'm crouched in darkness, right in front of them, with their flashlight shining near me. But in other situations if I fail to one hit kill them, they know exactly where I am and I will be spotted if I don't kill them quickly enough, regardless of where they're looking, what weapon I'm using etc. Pisses me off pretty bad for Infiltration mode.

^Yeah, AI seems pretty stupid, and easy. IMO the game NEEDS to be played on realistic difficulty...which is pretty easy still. At least getting detected means dieing a lot faster...

Looked like a third person Call Of Duty to me.

Also DRM

The deniable ops maps suck ***. Only good one is St. Petersberg Banya. The others, I can't even be assed. The game is kind of collecting dust here...

I am really enjoying it.

First mission(everything on malta) was totally awesome. 2nd Mission where you escape was more average already, now I'm playing the iraq flashback and it kinda sucks lol.

 

[EvilAmericanMan]

Yea I was pretty confused on that mission...didn't realize I wasn't Fischer until the end..

Its not so focused on stealth as previous titles, plus they took some things away, like suspending yourself in a hallway with your legs, and some other stuff.

Its still pretty good, but isnt splinter cell anymore. In my opinion.

Yeah that's my opinion too. It's a fun game, and the presentation is definitely top notch. But the gameplay has too much action moments and too few stealth elements imo, especcially when I think at the old splinter cells. Still a good game, but not so much of a classical splinter cell experience.

 

[DraKon2k]

I'm close to the end of the game now I think, and I've really changed my mind. This game is pretty much a piece of crap imo. There are hardly any stealth elements at all. The only 'stealth' elements are that you can kill enemies with out them noticing you. Yet the enemy armies(as you are constantly against 495890345830 soldiers) will always be aware of your presence. Most of time is simply spent shooting in cover, however shooting is hardly any fun, and I still don't get it why the assault rifles(except the M468) all fire in bursts only :/

*edit*
Alright so I just finished the game..... If I had to give it a score ->

Presentation 9.0
Story 7.0
Gameplay 6.0
+Ending bonus 1.0
----------------
Overall -> 83%

too much actually
