Splinter Cell

So, what's everyone's opinion? I definately think this is one of the best games I've played to date. Great graphics, not a memory hog, doesn't seem to really have any technical problems on my end (not even those little ones that you eventually quit paying attention to) and a good story. I especially like it because it seems like one of those games that the people who only get through games by cheating would have a tough time with it since most everything is based on stealth. The realism of knocking someone out and it coming back and biting you in the *** 10 minutes later because you didn't hide the body well enough is somewhat aggravating at times but is definately a great aspect of this game.

I agree with you. I been Playing it off and one and it seems to be really tough in spots. it usually take me a few days to figure out how to get past a section.

Also Playing it on XBOX

Got it the day it came out on Xbox back in November...

At the time a lot of Xbox fanboys were comparing it to Metal Gear Solid 2, saying SC would blow it out of the water - well, they were right for the most part. The gameplay, physics & AI in SC are way better than MGS2. I love the lighting engine & how it affects how well enemies can see you, and there are way more possibilities to solve a scenario than MGS.

The story & voice acting are lame. It's not a cinematic type experience like MGS, and I don't really connect to any of the characters like I do Solid Snake. Of course, some people prefer this, and that's all well and good I suppose.

Eitehr way, SC is a gameplay experience everyone should try at least once, no matter what platform you try it on.
