Review: After the disappointment of the last Hitman and the slighty over-rated new GTA there was a definate hole in PS2 gaming, along came Splinter Cell, ah well give the old fomat another try, not bad before so it should be ok. Well this baby has improved 10-fold, as mentioned in other reviews those really annoying flaws have been removed (look my b****y game i want to save it when i want), the action is smooth and graphics a 10/10 (if this is what Ubisoft can do with a PS2 I can't wait for the PSP or PS3). One of complaints i had about the previous version of this game was the fact that the action was very linear, you had to go through door x to get to door y to get to door z, this has now gone and the stories can be completed in a variety of ways, from full on assaults to tippy toe sneakyness. Fisher is also finally equiped (knife, wi-fi hacking tools, built in sniper scope on the assault rifle) to go forth and do what he does best. I'm only part way through this game simply because I keep replaying the missions over and over again, it will be a tough job to knock GT4 off as game of the year but this really stands out as a sequel that has just got better. Once you've played your hooked, once you've heard the "phhhhwwweeee" as you flip Sam's night vision you'll never forget it. Must Buy. |
