Splinter Cell Conviction

Re: Splinter Cell Conviction

I don't mind so much, I'm in the UK and the game is just under £25 at the website I buy from, it will likely be £35 in the shops but PC games have always sold for that price in high street retailers because silly people will pay that much

but yes Chris is right about inflation etc, its just a pity that a lot of games have gotten shorter or simply don't offer the value

which is why I did get pissed about MW2, there was always a 0% chance of me buying it but the whole situation was just lolworthy

I will buy this if it can reclaim the glory days of Chaos Theory

Re: Splinter Cell Conviction

The other thing that annoys me about publishers raising the price is that when the sales drop they will blame it on PC torrenting and illegal downloading etc.

Its them raising the price and putting ridiculous DRM strongholds on the products that make more people torrent the game to begin with.

Compared to minimum wage games are cheaper today. I remember paying over 70 bucks for a few games. While most games are 60 now the popular ones aren't 70 80 or 100 like they used to be.

Re: Splinter Cell Conviction

TBH I gave up on splinter cell a lonnnnnnnnng time ago.

Speaking of prices, for how many years has the magical 50 being held despite inflation? Yeah, you think about it.

To be fair people are always upset about raised prices, especially when at least in my eyes the content has deteriorated.

I would assume you're referring to double agent, because Chaos Theory, which was the third installment in the series, was arguably (and will still be) the best Splinter Cell game to date.

Hey Ubisoft there's this thing called the Unreal Engine 3. Should check it out. I mean christ, UE 2 again? They should move LEAD features to the UE3.

Whats wrong with UE2? SWAT4 is built on UE2.5, and its still one of the best (looking and playing) tactical shooters. Certainly looks better than R6Vegas. Then theres Bioshock and Bioshock 2, built on UE2.5 aswell.

Re: Splinter Cell Conviction

The problem is UE3 is better

[Chris_Redfield]

Re: Splinter Cell Conviction

Yeah, and by demonstrating the fact that UE3 is better, Ubisoft released a number of UE3 based games which are the worst piece of technical garbage ever made.

Which games?

Re: Splinter Cell Conviction

Rainbow Six Vegas 1 and 2 (although 2 was considerably better than 1, even though its multiplayer was just shocking).

Hey have you tried the console versions of Vegas? Those may not be perfect, but they worked pretty well. I heard the PC version is a watered-down piece of **** compared to them. Maybe you should look into them.

Matchmaking would mean the closest person who would play it online would be in Alaska. Not to mention that I cant in good conscience fund the rape of Tom Clancy franchise.
