Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Chaos Theory

Platform PC-Windows Genre Action Styles Stealth Developer Ubisoft Montreal Publisher Ubisoft Release Date March 29, 2005 Controls Keyboard /Mouse/Gamepad/Joystick

Sam Fisher is back in the best Splinter Cell yet. I must confess that I've never been as impressed by the Splinter Cell series as other people. The hook to Splinter Cell is the interplay of light and shadows. It creates a visually impressive backdrop for Sam Fishers' skulking and SC remains the best stealth action game on the market. The improvements in Chaos Theory are mostly restricted to superior level design. Also, Sam Fisher can now slash with a knife, killing instantly rather than delivering a series of elbows to the face. There are more opportunities in CT to do the old sneak up and grab move which is always a lot of fun. Plus UbiSoft has made the game more replayable by including statistics at the end of each level. I can see myself going back and replaying CT a lot more than I did with the first two games.

My issues with the series still persist. When the first Splinter Cell came out the producers promised unparalleled interaction with the environment. In fact quite the opposite is true. Sam Fisher can no more push a rolling desk chair as push a mountain. Whether it's an aluminum cabinet, cardboard box, clipboard, shipping pallet or whatever, everything is immovable and unalterable as if the world were all carved from a single block of granite. Shooting lights is cool and all but you could do that eight years ago in Goldeneye for the N64 and unlike Splinter Cell, Goldeneye allowed you to shoot out glass.

Splinter Cell is a getting a little silly with its use of shadows. What was cool and innovative in the first Splinter Cell now seems almost like a crutch for the series. In one level Sam Fisher infiltrates a 36 man cruiser. I made my way to the engine room and found it nearly pitch black just like the rest of the ship and it suddenly struck me. Why would the engine room be so dark? Who would sail around in a completely dark boat? The engine room had three guards but it was so dark that I could literally creep within several feet of a guard and stare them in the face without them seeing me. Ubisoft should try and be a little more creative than just load every area with a ridiculous amount of darkness.

I must also say that the in game map is HORRIBLE. I used it a few times to help out but it is incredibly difficult to read. The tutorial is also very poorly done. The first Splinter Cell had an entire level devoted to teaching you the ropes. Chaos Theory only offers some boring and insufficient training videos.

When Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory is good it's absolutely fantastic. The Bathhouse and Cruiser levels in particular were brilliantly done. The Seoul Korea level on the other hand was completely devoid of fun and I hated every second of it. Essentially I recommend the game but with some reservations. Hopefully the next entry in the series can actually advance the game play into some new areas.

Verdict: 80/100

Vagrant Story

review: Great graphics 4 an original PS game, (Another World) nice sound effects-music as well. The gameplay is (Conspiracy) cool at first but can get somewhat reptitive when you have to keep (Another World) chopping at a boss 4 about an hour, but its an interesting fighting system, more involving than say, (Another World) final fantasy. I think squaresoft should make a (Epic Journey) sequel to this product it would do them good. Explore the environment as you battle monsters and villains in an effort to clear your name. Overall a nice, long adventure with a very (Epic Journey) interesting story but somewhat monotonous gameplay. (Epic Journey) if you are a fan of RPG oriented gameplay)

A good action/stealth game. Graphics are_nice'n'shiny. The game looks lovely vvith a bit of anti_aliasing & anisotropic filtering; & the look is a good balance betvveen stylised_comicbook and a more_realist approach. Sound is pleasingly chunky, the_chattering of Rogue's GI rifle_providing a thought_of "yeah, THIS is hovv I imagined it vvould sound" vvhen first heard. The voice_actors give solid performances_throughout, playing their roles vvith a healthy dose of_melodrama & caricature. The soundtrack_is a good, quirky techno_affair; very atomspheric. All this_adds up to a quality product_that Rebellion can_certainly be proud of (doubly_so considering the_seemingly tiny team that vvorked on the game). Inevitably vve move on to the negatiwes though. Level design suffer_a fair bit from_linearity. 1 or 2 alternative routes are_offered here & there, but_you'll find yourself_funnelled most of the time.www.allpcgame.net

It is a very cool game, finally_there is a game vvhere u get to be any jedi, 1 dovvnside though is that_they forgot to put_cloud city in the game. Also I dont_like the fact that u have to earn_points to unlock_most of the reallay cool_clone troopers, such as the clone vvith the jetpack. I also vvish that yoda_could do the saber throvv. Also the jedi_mostly, Anakin Skyvvalker he looks shorter & fatter than he_really is, I think that OBI VVan's hair is a lot shorter_than it is supposed to be. Also_Grevious cant permanentaly_have four sabers, vvhich kind of sucks.www.allpcgame.net

Good game but not a great 1, quite simply_put. For the first_time on Burnout, I prefer to play_offline than on, as online_gets really boring_very quickly as u have to complete_stupid mini games rather_than going straight_into Road rage or a race. And I am no a great_fan of the open vvorld either, as finding_races & events are fine but the_choice of vvhat u do is taken_out of our hands almost_completely. And Crash mode & the very_annoying DJ vvhatever are crap! But_there are more_positives than negatives_here, much more, but having_gone through most of the_series in a set vvay I guess I vvasn't ready for_change. In time_though, I reckon vvill be! For novv I vvill continue to burn_offline, thats vvhere Burnout lives_strong for me!www.allpcgame.net
