I am enjoying it. Been doing some pretty awesome things to bad guys.

That's great to hear that Conviction is a great game, in its own right. However, please stop derailing my thread and answer if the game has failthfully preserved enough of the original series's gameplay and philosophy.

It has... you only have to have the will to want it to be and it is so... there are some elements missing that are sad, but seriouslly this is a stealth game at it's heart and it holds true to the series... in fact it's far more tactical then ever before... I think that they did well... this is an unleashed Sam Fisher

How do you explain the clip I have at the bottom of my OP?

Just because you can doesn't mean you have to... I watched my friend run and gun all the way through most of the original and in the 3rd it's not much different.  They don't take away your option of stealth they simply give you the option of force and really it's always been there if you wanted it... they had artificial limiters in the first two games but really you could just clear house in the 3rd.  They show you that the current system works in total stealth in the 3rd echelon building when you're sneaking in.  You can play the game just like you use to play the older splinter cell games minus carrying the bodies
