I'm not much of a fan of the Splinter Cell online gaming, so I haven't much to say about it. However, single player missions has left a lot to be desired. I am a diehard Splinter Cell fan who at one time believed you can't go wrong buying a Splinter Cell game. I was sixty odd dollars wrong!

First, the game is way too short. I beat this game in what seemed no time at all on normal. The missions are extremely boring and doesn't make much sense. The missions containing the hideout are just tedious. You walk around searching for your objective which are far too simple if you aren't seen carrying them out. And a lot of times, I felt as if I was in the dark on what exactly was going on. This game seemed to me only half finished.

And the ending...."To Be Continued"....Sucks! This game seemed to me a total waste of money.

Very disappointed... No co-op splitscreen missions

I bought this for my husband's birthday. We loved playing the Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, because of the splitscreen co-op missions where both of us could play together. I read MANY reviews online that the Double Agent game would have the same splitscreen co-ops and we were SO excited. It came out on my husband's birthday, so I had to preorder it and was happy when the back of the game said 1-3 players (this was listed separate from the system link and Xbox Live # of players). We started to play the game and were so mad when we found out that they didn't include any co-op splitscreen missions!!!! It was the only reason we even bought the game! We are extremely disappointed... It should not say 1-3 players, because this indicates (just like on all games) that 1-3 players can play at the same time on the same system without using Xbox Live. It's a total lie... We are still so mad that we haven't even played the game. =(

Very cool stealth game

My husband says this is an excellent version of Tom Clancy Splinter Cell Series. He has nothing bad to say about this game.

Best Of The Series

God this game is awesome. I just bought a 51" hatachi HDTV at circuit city and this game looks awesome in HDTV. I can see now how I was missing out before with a conventional tv! Anyways this game seems a little tougher then the others as far as the guards go. They seem to be more alert and on you right away when they see you! I have played half way through and I love the missions so far especially the Shanghai one when your scaling down it and have a chopper that spots you! I loved the mission in the snow too with it harder to see your enemies! I would recommend this game and even the rainbow six vegas one coming out looks awesome too!

What happened to co-op?

So I was so excited when I heard this game was going to be another Co-op Splinter Cell, and even more exited when I saw it said 1-3 players. I got this game the day it was released and sat downw with my brother to play some Co-op, but it wasn't there. It is a complete lie and was very disapointing. Also, online multiplayer is a big disappointment. Chaos Theory was great online, but this was not at all fun. Single player it OK, but overall, this game is worse than Pandora and Chaos.

NOt a good game

I am a huge fan of Tom Clancy's games. I love Ghost Recon, and Rainbow Six series. However, this is my first time playing Splinter Cell. This is a total waste of money, and honestly I am not impressed by the graphics. Maybe this is a game for those who love strategy, but for me is a boring game. So far for the Xbox 360 only Ghost Recon 3 has lived up to its expectations.
For the people who love co-op games, I highly recommend "Conflict Global Terror". It's a game for Xbox but the gameplay is outstanding!

just the endings

have to agree with some of the previous posts - I too bought this game because the package said it was for 1-3 players - assuming that meant 1-3 players could play via splitscreen rather than going online. Well this is not the case, its false advertising in my opinion and I think the Xbox360 folks and Ubisoft owe an explanation.

oh yeah, almost forgot to say - this is also an extremely boring game for single player - ho hum, climb, shoot, sneak, shoot - yawn. Nothing like Ghost Recon.

If you've played any game in this series then you know what to expect. What separates this series from other series that did not survive the jump to "next gen" is that they get it right. I can't think of anything I would change about the game. If you're expecting Doom or Quake then you bought the wrong game. This game is about stealth and accomplishing your goals with the LEAST amount of collateral damage (in most cases). Sure the "morale choice" aspect of the game could have had more of an impact but the fact that it doesn't really does not detract from the experience in my opinon. I would definitely recommend this title.
