Splinter Cell

Well sheeeeet, what a hell of a good game!
My Xbox arrived and with it Splinter Cell, rating 11/10, superb, such a fine game. The graphics, gameplay it's got the lot. Xbox is nice too.
Some great gadgets, lock pick is one of em, not just a little bar that changes as you unlock, nope, but a cross section of a lock that you pick by moving the analogue joystick and know it's unlocking a pin at a time by the force feedback you feel. It also has a spy cam for slipping through keyholes to see who is on the other side!
You can sneak up behind enemies, get them in a head lock and interrogate them, or push their heads agains retina scanners to get through doors.
This game is going to be great for the PC, but not till March 2003!

I've just had a go at Splinter cell. My goodness! 8O It does look like a 'must have'. When is it out for pc? I read that they're holding it back until the whole population have got they're Xboxes for crimble. (except me)
Swines!
Oh yes, get it from Blueyonder, more convenient.

Also tried Mafia.

Splinter Cell came out today (28-02-2003) for the PC. Both I and Chimpboy grabbed a copy from HMV this afternoon. I have to take him out for a walk on Friday afternoons as part of my community service order

At least he didn't mess himself this time.

Splinter Cell is err what Albert said it was at the top of this post.....

I did not leave work till 6.45 this evening and didn't start playing Splinter Cell until gone 9pm... so there :!:
