Sam lurks in the shadows, finds his moment to pounce and strikes with deadly efficiency. He isn't avoiding enemies, he's stalking them. In past Splinter Cell games, enemies were meant to be avoided in Conviction, Sam is a hunter. Sam's codename used by Third Echelon is "panther," and that's fitting. He can get in and out of cover quickly, shimmy across ledges faster than the Prince of Persia and beat a hasty retreat if he gets into trouble. These things aid in keeping players immersed in the world, but the real reason things feel so fluid is the change in approach to stealth. Fancy new projection technology integrates text into the scenery to point you towards your goal, and back story is shown with movies playing out on walls as you progress through a level. Levels are loaded while you're watching slickly presented cutscenes. From the moment the game starts, you never sit around waiting for something to happen. There are no in-game loading screens unless you die. Ubisoft pulled off a few magic tricks to make this happen. You're always being pushed forward, so much so that I played through the entire single-player campaign in one sitting without even realizing I'd been up all night. ![]() So just because ps3 never saw conviction that doesn't mean it deserved that low score, it is the best along with chaos theory, and I must say it as a splinter cell fan! Putting aside dumb flame and console wars.Conviction sets itself apart from its predecessors with its pacing. It has aged very well and it's formula is quite unique the way it introduces the oldfashion splinter cell mechanis with more dynamism, definatelly the second best splinter cell game, but with the best gameplay within the series, blacklist, though should receive this rating, funny thing, blacklist has 7.8 user score for ps3, and 7.5 for xb360, and as a ps3 owner, I must say almost any multiplatform runned way better on 360, mass effect 2, mafia 2, bayonetta, skyrim, just to name a few. ![]() Outstanding graphics even for today's standars, the bathroom scene is still insane and beautiful, the game gives you a strong voice actings and very relatable characters, something quite close to the emotional level I've had when playing the last of us for the 1st time! Yes, I still think that the last of us is a better game here, for many obvious reasong, but where the last of us reaches a 11/10 score from me, splinter cell conviction is a no brainer for stealth and strong emotion storytelling fans, and it is a straight 10/10 game, it doest everything perfect. The only one that comes close to this masterpiece is double agent xb360/ps3 version.ĭon't be fooled by the mediocre 7.7 rating this game definatelly doesn't deserve, is way better than Metal Gear Solid 5 (and I am a metal gear solid fan) the only downside to this game is I still don't get why it didn't release for my ps3 back then, only now with xbox series I had the opportunity to play it, and TBH, i think that the low ratings are from sony fanboys, I've alwas had a play station and I was confident with the platform strong exclusives, but 7.7 is way way low for this game. Everyone knows that this splinter cell here is the second best, losing the king's crown only to chaos theory.
