Splinter Cell: Double Agent
Pick up January's [i]Game Informer[/i] for the whole read, but here's the main idea of the newest Splinter Cell, coming this Spring:
So far, Sam's daughter died and he went into trauma, sorta, and begged Lambert for a mission, so he had Sam do a series of carefully planned bank robberies with fake civillian deaths that got Sam arrested and sharing a cell with an urban terrorist. Sam's orders were to help the terrorist and Sam break out, and have Sam be ommited into the Terror unit, called John Brown's Army.
From there, you have to complete Third Echelon and JBA objectives in each level, gaining trust with the JBA. You can choose in-game what objectives you complete, you can either remain 100% loyal to Third Echelon or commit some JBA acts that are morally-straining.
The multiplayer system has been seriously upgraded. Spies are far more versatile, and mercenaries can send in remote-controlled drones into air vents and other crawl spaces to chase the spies. Levels are now much easier to learn, and the mercs are now the Upsilon Force, no longer ARGUS.
That's as much as I can remember from the article, have fun!

I cant wait for it

Meh. Hopefully the gameplay won't suck as massively as the story line.
-
Sounds interesting. I'm looking forward to it.
-
I think this game is going to suck the fat ass. [Edited on 12/10/2005]

God, I've always been in love with the Splinter Cell franchise. I bought the first one alongside buying Halo: CE, so I've loved them all since the same day.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Emo Tears I've seen that trailer, it's awesome! I saw another one of one and it went like this: A Splinter Cell agent was getting beat up in the dark, pushed around by a mercenary. All of a sudden, the familiar night vision sound pings and the screen goes night vision and moves behind the mercenary and ends..[/quote] Yeah, that was the announcement for it. The gameplay and environment looks awesome and it's going to put the power of the 360 to good use.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] King84 Yeah, so I sit for two hours watching the VGA's thinking that for some reason there would be an announcement about Halo 3 (which didn't happen) and I change the channel after it's all over. A while later I turn it back to see if MXC is on by chance, and what do I see? A video game trailer with somebody getting shoved into a trunk and a man looking around a corner in a jail. I'm thinking, "wow, i wonder what game this is. it looks pretty sweet." everything winds down and the three green lights pop up on the screen, and literally, chills run down my back. This is now, by far, my most anticipated game for 360. Forget Halo 3. Forget Gears of War. I'm looking forward to kicking some ass, stealth style. With a few scenes of shooting, of course.[/quote] I've seen that trailer, it's awesome!

Sounds awesome. I might have to pick a copy of the mag since Chaos Theory is the greatest game from this current generation. Breaking out of prison, eh? Sounds kinda like one of the later missions of CT.
-
Well...I dunno...BLACKJACK isn't very good on camera...
-
Does anyone have any clips of it or anything?
-
Like I said... relevant to the jail scenes in Double Agent :p

You know, this mini discussion might just be relevant to what happens in DA in the jail. :|

Aj6627 is right. And magazines makes mistakes.

NO they didn't! [url=http://www.splintercell.com/us/newspost.php?id=9597]Read this![/url] That is on splintercell.com... the official site. Here is the quote if you don't want to read the article: [b]"We will soon be launching a Splinter Cell Chaos Theory Beta test for the multiplayer versus mode (Ubisoft Annecy, developers of Pandora Tomorrow’s versus mode, are the developers)."[/b]
-
The magazine gets their stuff directly from Ubi. Shanghai did PT's multiplayer, and Annecy took control of it for CT
-
Well, the magazine is wrong then. Shanghai did only the PT single player. Annecy has done all of the SvM so far.
-
I have the magazine right here.
-
You/the magazine are wrong! Shanghai did the PT single player, and Annecy did the SvM for PT and CT! Montreal did the SP for SC and CT and the coop for CT.
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ChiChi [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BLACKJACK green I know that they are both Ubisoft offices just in different parts of the world........but whats the difference if shanghai does it?.........if Montreal does it?............[/quote] I thought Ubi Montreal did Choas Theory,and Pt was done by Ubi Shanghei. PT sucked, and Choas Theory owned. But is it true that Shanghei only did they multi? If it is, the game might be great, since it does sound really promising.[/quote] Yes. In the article, they mentioned Shanghai already contributing to Splinter Cell, the Pandora Tomorow MP. They didn't do the single player. Can't you feel the difference between playing as Sam then switching as a Splinter Cell in Multiplayer? It feels so different, it doesn't play anything like you do in Single Player.
