Splinter Cell Interview

by Maarten Goldstein Dec 02, 2002 2:06pm CST tags: Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Splinter Cell, Interview
There is a pretty lenghty Splinter Cell interview on Computer & Video Games, asking senior producer Mathieu Ferland and scriptwriter JT Petty about this recently released (on Xbox anyway) third person stealth game. The C&VG guys ask about the origin of the phrase "Splinter Cell", the history of the main character Sam Fisher, the line between reality and fun, the use of heat vision and physics, the amount of gameplay hours and plenty of other things.

Splinter Cell PC Graphics

by Maarten Goldstein Nov 19, 2002 9:03am CST tags: Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Splinter Cell
For a while, there was the impression that the PC version of Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell would be scaled down graphically compared to the Xbox version. This to support the older 3D accelerators. Not the case anymore, as PC.IGN got in contact with Ubi Soft and they acknowledged that PC version has been reworked and now has the exact same graphical features as the Xbox version.
Worried that this may be exclusive to GeForce FX purchasers, we asked whether this only applied to some kind of OEM package deal, or whether or not only certain NVIDIA cards would be capable of exploiting the game to its fullest potential. No, we were told. Splinter Cell will be Xbox perfect so long as you have the next-generation video card to handle it, whatever video card that may be (Radeon, GeForce, Parhelia, Xabre even).
Feel free to post your impressions of the Xbox version in this thread as well.
