Splinter Cell Conviction sentenced to new trailer

News Portal · **Posted:** 2 Jul 09, 11:29 am

At E3, we were thoroughly impressed at what we saw and learnt about Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction, so it gives us great pleasure to see that Ubisoft have released the first developer diary discussing some of the new features that will be introduced in Sam Fisher's return into gaming.

The trailer introduces us to several of the developers, who, in turn, explain the new gameplay features of the title, which include "Last Known Position", and "Mark and Execute", the ability to queue up targets or traps to assist Mr. Fisher while he infiltrates various environments in the game.

Hmmm, looks interesting. I like the "Last Known Position" idea. It's a trick I use in online games, and it's good to see that they're making the AI fall for it too

Though what does the AI do once it has investigated the position?

As for the overall game itself, I'd be happy if it tops Chaos Theory. I'm just hoping they make the PC version far more stable than Double Agent...

Oh good I'm not the only one who had issues with DA.

This looks really good. Gotta love Michael Ironside.

The game have changed so much in the last 2 year and can't wait to play it, I was disappointed with Double Agent which was the only one out of the series I didn't like, all the rest have been great fun.

I remember Splinter Cell 1 chugging on my old PC and the controls frustrated me. Didn't give a good impression and I never really got into the series. This one looks to make the game blend action and stealth as well as the Bourne movies do so I'm interested!

You'd think by now a stray bullet would have hit Sam in the head..either that or he'd died from old age...

You could say the same about Solid Snake

I played the previous games, and I found it very frustrating, like I was not this powerful guy I was supposed to be..

Translation: I sucked at Splinter Cell and couldn't aim. So we decided to continue the modern tradition of ruining gaming by adding a feature that does the aiming for you! Sure, it does mean less satisfaction for people who are used to actually playing games - but hey, your grandma could pick this up and win - and theres a hell of a lot more grandmas than gamers!

Meh, you might as well watch a DVD that pauses randomly and requires you to click "play" to continue.

Wow Sam became younger and turned into Jason Bourne with aim hacks.

Looks pretty cool but I wonder how it plays.
