IGN's review is REALLY odd...

9.0 Presentation
Stylish menus and cool projection technology make for a unique experience. The story is an amalgamation of different seasons of 24, but it's nice to see Sam so angry.

8.5 Graphics
Nice animations. Gritty but good-looking environments. The framerate occasionally dips, but it's nothing major.

9.0 Sound
Michael Ironside does a great job reprising his role as Sam Fisher. The enemies have some nice quips. Solid musical score.

9.0 Gameplay
Stealth is fast and fun. Mark & Execute is a great addition. The AI is excellent if you play on Realistic difficulty.

8.0 Lasting Appeal
The single-player and co-op campaigns are short, but there's a lot of other things to do. And you'll probably want to play through everything more than once.

9.3
Outstanding OVERALL
(out of 10)

9.3, with no single score over 9... Including an 8 and an 8.5? (The 8 being a biggie as it's lasting appeal)

Seems strange to me...

Oh, and it just turned into a rental.

you need to add up the fun factor for the overall score, the fun factor range from 0.0 to 1.0, so splinter cell got an average score of 8.7 then you add 0.6 with the fun factor that's how you get 9.3 ;)



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I find it amusing PS3 fans saying it's turned into a rent, was it ever a purchase in the first place? lol so transparant.

Considering i also recently rented God of War 3 due to the time it takes to beat it... You should just shh

Or how about no



 

Wait, so you can do the co-op with a bot? Hmm, if it's closer to 10-12 hours maybe. I'm just so torn, I really really liked Splinter Cell!

Edit: Also, the absolute shit-ton of fun I'm having with Bayonetta may be starting to change my mind about how long a game needs to be for a purchase. I bought Heavy Rain at full price, played it through once in about 8 hours and I feel fine about that. HELP!

Fair enough, i just want you to stop crying because people don't want to pay full price for a 5 Hour long game

I said I find it amusing, not sure how you indicate that with "crying" but whatever.

It's just the perfect oppoutunity for PS3 "fans" to bitch about it.

 

What's with the passive aggressive smiley faces Carl?

Crying, complaining, bitching... Same thing. And finding out that a game is 5 hours long is a perfect opportunity to decide if you want to rent it or not.

And i've had a good day. Finally had some good weather and won on the GN. I will remember not to smile in the MS forums anymore.



                            

this games looks like a dissapointment.  5 hours for single player campaign, when are all you 360 people gonna relize ps3 exlcusives are so much better made.  Yet another dissapointing 360 exlusive.  have fun paying 60 dollars for this let down 360 fanboys...

Except I wasn't doing any of them. 5 hours is a legitimet excuse to stop buying the game, but from the people it's coming from, well I go back to my original post.

 

I don't care about your day carl, you seem to always put a smiley face at the end of positive posts in MS forum from what I can remember, veeeeery strange!!!

Good boy.
