dogbert Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Well, it's not called 2, but it's the next Splinter Cell "story"... Multiplatform & featuring online play. What's most interesting to me is not the details - everyone knew it was coming - it's more the timing of the game/announcement. They didn't show it or announce it at E3 which was last week, instead they waited to let the "buzz" of the show clear to allow them to get more attention from the press. I think more companies are doing the same this year, just look at the number of high profile "absentees". I find it interesting that they're NOT releasing the game in the run-up to Christmas. I'd like to know if it was originally aimed for that & slipped, or if that was always the plan - it makes sense as again the market is overcrowded in the months before Christmas.

kelley Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 If I was making a game that wasn't Half-Life 2, DOOM3, or Halo 2 I'd be scared to release during Oct. - Feb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Online play? That'll be interesting. I wonder if it will amount to a different game with the SC2 engine. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Found this at Gamespot.com: ... several players will be able to participate in online multiplayer missions along with Sam Fisher. Co-op online sounds pretty cool to me. -j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
