    Splinter Cell: Blacklist

    Senior Editor

    Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

        What's the verdict on Splinter Cell: Blacklist? Is it worth picking up at $45?
        I loved Chaos theory, recall thing that Double Agent was pretty bad, and didn't even finish Conviction.

          I loved it on console. I also noted at the top that valcan_s loved the hell out of it on PC, talking about how much sharper this version of the game is.

            Ozzie is totally right it OWNS very solid game, and on the PC you get it juiced up graphically they went all out on it.

          It's probably the best Splinter Cell game I've played. I admit I 'downloaded' it to try it out cause I thought it was going to suck but I was pleasantly surprised. It's quite difficult too if you like that sorta thing, but Iw as playing it on the highest 'realistic' difficulty.
          It's now no.1 on my Steam wishlist. But it's still too expensive (price hike in Australia) so I'm waiting for a sale. Going by steam stats and a sale this soon it doesn't seem like it's selling very well on PC so I expect a big drop in price relatively soon.

          It's fantastic. Even the multilayer is fun when you have teams that are balanced in terms of skill.

          Preordering that game is not wise. The early buzz has not been good.

        I should ask, has anyone jumped on that Bethesda deal from Get Games? Getting two of those games for $15 sounds really good!
