Splinter Cell: Conviction Demo Due Thursday

by Chris Faylor, Mar 16, 2010 9:45am PDT

After years of delays, Ubisoft is finally gearing up to release Splinter Cell: Conviction on PC and Xbox 360 during the week of April 15.

And to help prove that the stealth-action sequel is actually coming out this time, the company has revealed that a downloadable demo is slated to hit Xbox 360 this Thursday, March 18.

The demo will include two single-player segments--the urine-soaked opening sequence and a later level--with more details available through the trailer below:

Do you have to have GOLD to download this demo? I don't play online with 360, I hope I can get the demo. Planning on buying if the demo is solid. I wish I hadn't used that 48 hour live demo from blur... maybe i can get another.

I've played all of the last splinter cells on the PC. Despite the fact the player movement is probably better on the console, when I've played the console versions of the game I'm always irritated at how difficult it is for me to pull off fast accurate headshots. I wonder if how this one is setup with mark/execute that part of the game will not be an issue anymore. I just can't feel like a super spy unless I can drop 3-4 guys with pistol headshots in quick succession. My console-fu is weak.

Did I just stumble onta a juack pot? Is SC not going to have that mental DRM?

The above would lead me to say it will NOT, I pray I am right?

Do you need a persistent net connection to play the demo as well? We can't have these copyrighted demos being pirated on BitTorrent.
