Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell for Xbox

Pros: You are Sam Fisher, super-spy

Cons: You are Sam Fisher, George Clooney lookalike

The Bottom Line: Sam Fisher might not be as cool as Solid Snake, he is much cooler than the tool of tools, Raiden.

Pros: Graphics, gameplay, camera, audio

Cons: learning curve

Review: I'm going to cut right to the chase on this game.. I have to say that this game has displaced Metal Gear Solid 2 and has taken the throne for a stealthy title. Here's what I thought of the game:

Graphics-The XBox truly shines here. This game...

Pros: Great gameplay. Thoroughly original. Looks stunning, absolutely stunning...

The Bottom Line: A rich, mature and satisfying game which oozes good looks, gameplay, depth and originality. What the XBox was made for!

Review: Splinter Cell is a great game. Fact. However, I can understand why it may be getting mixed reviews in the gaming community. I'll be honest, when I first played the game, I thought "What's all the fuss about?" but, with perseverance, what emerges is a...

Pros: Realism, storyline, gadgets, excellent combination of stealth and action.

Cons: Difficult to master, questionable replay value

The Bottom Line: Splinter Cell is amazing. Although some people may like it more than others, it takes gaming to the next level.

Review: Like its predecessor, Hitman 2, Splinter Cell for the Xbox came to me carrying heavy expectations on its shoulders (I actually pre-ordered it, a first!).

The other Tom Clancy title I have is Ghost...

Pros: Excellent graphics. Ego-boosting gameplay.

Cons: Jaggies on shadows. Usual Clancy storyline.

The Bottom Line: Buy it or regret it. That, or lend it from a friend.

Review: Step aside Playstation 2, and take Metal Gear Solid with you! We've got a new game in town and its ...
