Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory previews

I played the first version of this game but wasn't entirely impressed, good storyline, nice graphics but far too linear for my liking especially since it was a stealth game.

I didn't think I would purchase another one but I saw the cover read the back and inside, it was cheap and had an awesome online rating. So installed the game not expecting much different.

Instantly I was suprised really nice graphics great sound and exciting gameplay, new moves and new weapon attachments and he carries a knife..

I'm up to about the 6th level in the game some missions are intense this game has definate replay value…Who could ask for less being able to snatch a guy in the dark in the middle of a conversation!

This game is like taking part in an interactive movie!

All I can say is bring on Splinter Cell: Double Agent

I am happy to announce that Sam Fisher isn’t ready to be thrown back into retirement just yet.

Once more, Sam progresses through ten huge levels in his usual dry, detached manner. This time, however, each level comprises of multiple paths to proceed from point A to point B. For example, the player can choose whether to take out the lights in a room and gradually eliminate the enemy one by one, or to avoid them completely by taking a route through the air conditioning ducts.

I didn’t think I would ever see better graphics than Pandora Tomorrow but Ubisoft have done the impossible. The graphics are so incredibly detailed, that it seems all the world like an interactive movie. Curtains sway lazily in the breeze, moonlight filters through the trees and candles flicker in gloomy rooms (and, yes, you can blow them out).

The sound is absolutely brilliant. Sam proceeds through his world to the accompaniment of the sound of raindrops, wind and surrounding machinery. I love it when you’ve taken down an enemy and you can hear his walkie-talkie crackling and someone saying “Is everything alright down there? Answer me!”

The music is, as usual, the perfect accompaniment to the game. They hired Amon Tobin to write and record the soundtrack, and it’s so good they have even made it available to buy separately. I’ve ordered mine and it should arrive this week.

In short, this game is a must buy. Be warned though, you need a fairly powerful machine to do it justice but, if you have a high-end graphics card, Chaos Theory is an absolute stunner.

I only hope they are planning a fourth one…
