Quote:The Splinter Cell series seems to have been wandering in the wilderness recently, much like the Tom Clancy multiverse in general, as it tries to find a coherent identity from game to game. Granted, there’s always been the steadying presence of everyone’s favourite super-soldier / agent / father Sam Fisher, but considering we’ve seen him go from co-op adventures in Chaos Theory, family turmoil in Conviction and the gritty terrorism themes of today’s Splinter Cell, it’s safe to say things became a bit muddied along the way. The latter represents the newly-formed Ubisoft Toronto’s debut offering, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

Lacking Ironside as the voice of Sam is something that really.... idk. I understand that he is younger but it's one of those things where if you asked me to describe three things that I associate with Same Fisher it's: Stealth, Three green "eyes" and Michael Ironside.

Other then that I know I would get used to hearing a new voice but it would be strange.

Aside from all of that, the game looks great.

Yea I'm not happy with lack of Ironside and I am not liking the gameplay and It has some Assassin's Creed which I think doesn't belong in the Splinter Cell series at all. This demo didn't do it for me but maybe it will be better with time.

I think the Assassin's Creed influence is mostly in the way Sam Fisher moves around the world - monkeying around buildings, etc.

Either way, the demo was very action heavy. I'd bet the actual game is a little less Rambo.
