SPLiNTeR CeLL! What a Game! |
| A.J. from Loomis, Ca says (8/Dec/2002): |
I haven't played many games in my lifetime.. I've always looked down on the guys that sat in front of their tv's all day to play a stupid game. I played and beat MGS in one week, man i was so hooked on that game, then recently i saw a commercial about a new XBOX Game called splinter cell I bought it almost immediatley & have been playing it since... XBOX Has really done it this time, this is the best game i've ever played,

Bring the party to your house! |
| Gue, Travis from Ft. Hood TX says (9/Dec/2002): |
I am a soldier of the United States Army. The game alone has at least ten soldiers watching me play it for hours in the barracks. The realism of the game is by far the best out in the market today. The graphics(flat screen tv) is enough to not only play it but sit down for hours and watch it. The sound( dolby digital )makes you apart of its world. When I play this game it is so realistic, I almost feel as if it is me saving the world. The planet is now a safer place. I am a hard core, < remove me > at #&%! kicking Halo freak. Halo has nothing on Splinter Cell. I used to twiddle my thumbs every day for the day when Halo 2 came out. Now I can only dream of the day wben Splinter Cell 2 comes out. The game is challenging if your are weak. You have to, and must think, like a NSA agent. The best of the best. Playing a Rambo role will get you nowhere. "Winning 115 wars and no defeat is nothing, winning one war and not even fight, is the absolute truth in winning." Can you handle it?

Not that Great |
| Lazarus from Outter Mongolia says (10/Dec/2002): |
Yes the graphics are good and, la dee da, the hanging sheets move nicely, but I'm disappointed in this game. Someone indicated that the alarm went off because bodies weren't hidden. Well on that same level (the one after the chefs) I hid every d< remove me > at amn body and the alarms still went off. The only way to get through it was to carry all 5 bodies back into the meat locker. That took 10 minutes to do and it took me about 15 times to get through the level to find acceptable hiding places. Dumn, dumn, dumn.
I'm currently in the Chineese Embassy, got the info I needed and can't find a way out. What sucks is that there are short walls that on other levels he'd easily jump over - but not on this level.
The spinning round 360 degrees criicism is right on. Happens to me all the time. It's the inconsistencies that are the worst. On one level you can climb a pipe and in others you can't climb an identical pipe.
Alarms go off and if you run away 50 feet and wate, 2 minutes later everyone pretends they wasn't just an intruder and they weren't just shooting at you. Again, dumn, dumn, dumn. I preferred Max Paine much more than this one.
The graphics are great no doubt. But that's not enough to keep me coming back. And, by the way, Halo RULES! This game doesn't rate a score anywhere close to Halo
Lazarus.

Extremely cool.... they thought of everything! |
| A gamer from Oshkosh, USA says (10/Dec/2002): |
The other day I was playing the level where you have to go through the meat lockers. While playing I sniped a guard with my thermal goggles on. I quickly zoomed out and was about to go on my way when I noticed that the shell that I just fired was glowing red with my thermal goggles on. Then it quickly cooled off with the temperature of the cooler around it. It was probably one of the coolest things I have seen in a video game. Most game developers wouldn't go through the time or effort to worry about the temperature of recently fired bullets.

To sweet for words |
| Ghetto Kid from England says (10/Dec/2002): |
Splinter cell is one of the best games i've ever played on the xbox and really does deserves to be right up there with Halo in the rating chats. It is a true stealth game which is much better than metal gear solid 2 and it should forever remain as one of the best games ever made. I have been playing Splinter Cell for over four days now and it's just sooo good. I have found that this game is making me lose hours of sleep because i just can't stop playing. The graphics are prefect and i love the way the lighting and shadow effects work. Xbox really pulled out all the stop with this game. So overall Splinter Cell really is a great game and truely deserves that 10 out of 10 rating. I just can't wait for Splinter Cell 2 hopefully.

The other way that you could have done the part with the Cheffs is put the boddies in the room you are going to go into(the one that you need the retinal scanner for) put them all there and go that way that what I did. It worked great too.

What a game! |
| A gamer from UK says (12/Dec/2002): |
Just want to say what a fantastic game this is. Totally immense gameplay and you really need to THINK before you act, superb!! Go buy it.
|
Awesome Game, great details |
| viper_venom_gts_r from Ellsworth AFB, SD says (12/Dec/2002): |
This game is awesome. Like in the meat locker, when you knock a guy out, his body is still warm. Take out your gun and kill him while he is knocked out and wait and watch his body turn black after a while from the loss of heat. This game is almost as realistic as Metal Gear but shouldnt Sam start sneezing not being used to the meat locker temperatures as compared to metal gear when he starts sneezing from staying out in the rain too long? Other than that, the details and graphics in this game are spectacular!!!

Excellent Game |
| John Doe from Boston says (12/Dec/2002): |
For all of you nit wits out there who can't seem to figure out how this game is played, your stupid and impatient. This game requires persistence and alot of time. Splinter cell has the best graphics of any game out for PC or XBOX and is by far the most eloborate RPG made to date, so for those of you who are still stuck on the short, stupid game with a bad story line called HALO get a life. Halo came out what last year, how many fu#$%&* times can you play that game. I got bored of it after I beat it the twelfth time in the first week I owned it. Splinter cell has me going on 3 days straight and I still haven't beeten it, and after im done I can get more levels on line. Oh and by the way if glitches arise while playing the game it is probably because you forgot to hide a body, or maybe you don't take care of your XBOX. But anyway for those of you who enjoy truly good gaming experiences and a good story line Splinter Cell is by far and away the game for you.

truth |
| A gamer from Birmingham says (13/Dec/2002): |
I sold three games just to buy it and when I got it I never put it down. Two weeks and I'm on that Chinese level level number 8. If i don't complete it by the third week I am going to get annoyed.

Greatest Game ever!!! |
| A gamer from Great Britain says (14/Dec/2002): |
Splinter Cell is the greatest game ever. It has so much u can do. Every1 says naah not as good as MGS2.. but I disagree.. Its in a league of its of own.. Beats the S*** out of Metal Gear Solid! ..Solid Snake is a wimp compared 2 Fisher. There has never been a game like it!The levels and graphics are suberb!!The gameplay is brilliant! U get totally taken in by it!. I did think it was a little short tho but other than that..its the best game ever!!
|
Wow |
| A gamer from London says (14/Dec/2002): |
This game is the best!.People are saying about glitches..there aren't any!! the reason alarms go off when u haven't set any off is because u are not hiding bodies! so when u go thru a check point it raises the alarm difficulty cos u didnt hide the bodies!and people saying they have no ammo!!Christ! I always had loads, I used Stealth more than guns blazing..knocking the guards out instead of shooting the, or sniping.The game is a little short and A.J from Loomis, U catch up I completed it yrs ago lol.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! |
| Master_Xiahou from Dorset says (15/Dec/2002): |
Splinter Cell wicked mofo game even tho it abit short but what the hey buy xbox live and d/l new lvl's which Aint 2 shabbie. The weapons are wicked the gadgets even better. Just shootin a guard with a shock dart makes ur life a little more Sane from waking up 2 a Ugly shebeast in ur bed the previous Morning. Splinter cell is not a run around killin game which makes it more intresting, hidin up on pipes w8tin 4 ur target 2 walk under u and drop down and punching his lights out, or popping a bullet in his skull and watch Him fall the all floor like a sack of crap. Splinter cell is the best game on the xbox so go out and buy it.

A real Gamers game |
| N8dogg925 from Fort Campbell, KY. USA! says (15/Dec/2002): |
All in all, this may very well be the greatest game ever produced. Superb graphics and attention to detail. Words just dont do them justice. The sounds are just as good, from the score to the footfalls of a gaurd walking up a corridor to your hiding spot, the sound effects are what really pull you into the game and set the mood. Controlling all of Sam's various moves is a breeze. Its easy to sneak, climb and rappell your way through the levels. Yes, this game is difficult. You're not gonna blow though it in an afternoon (unlinke Halo, which I think I could toast with my eyes shut by now). But it's not a frustrating type of challenge. Every time you fail at something the first thing you wanna do is rethink your stradegy and get back to the game. I havent found any cheesiness yet. If you like the mindless, thumb numbing fragfests that have infested systems across the board, this game isn't for you. If you like a thinking, challenging game that will pull you into it's covert world, don't hesitate to pick this up. You wont be dissapointed.

WHOAA DUDE |
| Ted from Bill and teds excellent adventure from California America says (16/Dec/2002): |
This is like, totally bodacious dude! I think it's the best game on the xbox! It is like so cool! It is a bit bogus in some parts though dude
|
The best game ive ever played on!!! |
| Stephen Mc from United Kingdom says (17/Dec/2002): |
Ive played on sega master systems, sega mega drives, PC's, sega saturns, playstations 1 and 2 and xbox. By doing so i have played on hundreds of games and without a boubt splinter cell is the best game i have ever played on. The graphics are out of this world, and the only thing bad about it is when you have completed it you dont know what to do with yourself. If you havent played this game yet you have got to go out and get it. If you havent got an xbox get one, because this is one of those games that only comes along every so often.

what happened to the ending? |
| justin maloney from brookyln newyork says (19/Dec/2002): |
Splintercell is a nice game, coolest graphics any one has ever seen sence halo. but the people who make these game's have to realise that endings are a very important part of the game.after buying the game for 54 dollars and playing it for countless hours of my life i was disapoined by the ending. if the xbox magazine would tell people that the game that was rated a 9.6 was short and the ending was wack, i would not have brought it.people you should rent this game, block buster lets you rent it for a week more than enough time to end it more than once. and what happen to the multiplayer?, but it is the first of its kind and theres nothing like it any were els so you have to play it, its even better than metalgear can you believe it? hopefully the sequal will be cooler with smarty more flexible bad guys who look and act differnt
|
Great, but where did the ending go??? And who said that this was a game thats 'sposed to be played 4 hours? |
| Fred from Norway says (19/Dec/2002): |
Those shabby, lousy little developers should've been shot! They can't publish games thats 75% complete!! When creating a game there's certain things that you have to make sure of;
1. That the game is fun
2. That the game is challenging
3. The game guarantees more than 15 minutes of gameplay!
4. That the game has an intro that makes the gamers really excited.
5. The ending is good enough.
This game matches 4/5 ! (=8/10)

sam can punch too! (or am i sharin old a*s info?) |
| A gamer from wilmington de says (19/Dec/2002): |
i let a friend of mine take the sticks for a minute while playing splinter cell. i figured he could play with the camera angles because we were at a part where the girl with the van was talking to sam. well, to my surprise, i see sam take a thunderous left hook to the chick and left her shiverin' like a kitten left out in the rain! i yelled, sweet fancy moses man, what did ya doo!?!? he goes "i dunno!!!"
well turns out, he hit the right trigger while close to her. so if you have difficulty gettin jusssst close enough to a guard before hittin' the A button, try pressin' the trigger instead. you'll have to hit guards twice and regular janitorial fellas once. the end. email me if you have any problemos.
|
awesome and greatest game eevvveerrr! |
| Matt Milne from Fairborn says (20/Dec/2002): |
This game has the coolest techniques in gaming, the electronic game monthy magazine said it was cool and the best game in the magazine for XBOX. The third level when you get to the gutter u have to shoot the inside wall to get past the sensor. This game is the best game in my home copared to HALO.
