Oh Dear.

imo ubi's manager act shortsightedly. they concentrate on the console kiddies, eg on unfrequent players with low skill and low demands on the multiplayer. this will damage ubi's reputation as a brand of quality software highly in the long term. i think the future is more competitive online games, and not the crap games with fancy graphics and no depth at all, this is just a hype.

You do realize that 95% of the people who buy video games don't even look at the publisher?

If the game sucks, most people will say "Splinter Cell 5 sucks" not "Ubi killed the SC series."

Yes they did take away his googles  :'(
And they programmers suck, and worse, they cant do simple algorithms for AI...
I mean you just split the whole NPC_Guard AI into smaller pieces, then into smaller ones that you actually fix, and then he should be okay. But making AI is quite a difficult task (i had made a bot for Q3, wich own3d on any serv ^^) it takes a lot of time (time = money) so it was easier to make simpler AI with all that daylight crap.
^That's my opinion, i don't mean to insult Ubi's programmers, they did a great job on CT, but all they do now is CRAP.

Yeah that's just sad...

No goggles? I mean, wtf? That was one of the iconic symbols of splinter cell.

What they really should do is just create an entirely new series to handle this daylight stealth stuff and leave the splinter cell franchise about shadow based stealth.

i realized the n00bs' superior number long time ago, it's just sad how blindly most consumers buy stuff.

Yes!! Excactly that, but Ubi could like make 2 games wich would be in the same time of the SC story, but each would take other route. eg. in ConViction Sam is taking on Third Echelon on his own, while i think he could destroy it from the inside - sabotage etc., or he could just go on a kill crazy stealth rampage in their building (he has to kill some important ppl in teh agency or something). I think that this would take a crapload of time to make, but it would also bring SC a better feel, cuz you could then choose the path you want to take in your SC adventure (some ppl prefer full stealth, others full aggro, while many are plaing mixed).
Get the point??
^ Just my opinion

i don't agree, im sorry. i first played on the 360, because i didnt know of PC gaming, really. why do PC gamers think console gamers are all idoits running around? it is true that consoles mostly have yuonger kids. why? because its shit easy to play. it costs nothing, compared to the PC, and you put the disk in, and there it goes. parents dont want to spend too much money on things, so ocnsoles are the route.

Yeah, it's just some matter of irrational elitism. But I mean hey, when you're spending like $1500+ solely on hardware, compared to the $200 - $400 console, you need to have some justification :P
