This is totally an awesome game. You are leader of an elite squad of counter-terrorists, and you must save the world. The single player in this game is absoultly great, the levels are well thought-out, and the gameplay itself is dope. And the graphics, the graphics are incredibly done by Ubisoft. The whole game is just cool, it's fun to pretend you are Ding Chavez hunting down terrorists (especially on the alcatraz level, which reminded me alot of the move "The Rock"). It is probably the second best (Halo being number 1) 1st-person-shooter 1st player game i've ever played. There is but one problem. The multi-player. I was expecting more of a Ghost Recon type deal, but that it is not. TI is far too fast-paced, laggy and there are way too many tacky explosions, but all in all, it is a great title from the Tom Clancy series, can't wait for Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow.
Better and harder than expected

This game is great! graphics just like splinter cell and team work like on ghost recon just more advanced since you can tell them what to do. It is like playstion 2's SOCOM with better graphics. This is just as hard as Splinter cell if not better. It's a must own. The only bad thing is that it is real complicated but hey it makes it more fun!
Good

This game is fun, the graphics are very good so is the sound.
Single player is fun to go through and complete but the best part is definately the multiplayer part of the game. Online gaming is sweet, it is well worth purchasing this game. However there is NO splitscreen play on this game which is the biggest problem for people that don't have XBOX live or anyone that rarely has a lan party.
If you decide to get this game I suggest that you also get XBOX Live if you don't already have it.
FUN, ESPECIALLY ONLINE

This is my first go at playing one of these squad-based first person shooters. You lead a team of elite counter-terrorist special forces members in various missions including eliminating terrorists and rescuing hostages.
Play indiviual missions or a whole campaign. You can alone or with friends via split screen, multi-link, or online. You ahve a large variety of weapons to choose from including machine guns, assault rifles, various grenades, mines, breaching charges and more.
If you own an X-box headset, you can play alone and actually give the computer controlled members of your team voice orders via the headset which is really cool.
Go online with players from around the world to do missions, team battles, or an every man for himself battle in the Sharpshooter game.
Very fun, and exciting. Great graphics and sound.
Great Game

A very fun game! Great graphics, it takes alot from Splinter Cell. This game is fun either as single player "campaign" or as multiplayer "xbox live". I'd recommend it.
great single player, but fantastic on xbox live

There are multiple ways to play this game. In the single player mode there are the modes mission and terrorist hunt. If you have xbox live, you can play those same modes with real people rather than bots for team members. On live you can also play adversarial game types called sharpshooter (free for all with only a time limit) or team survival (time limit and one death per person).
The single player is great, but there are two stealth missions that can be annoying. Also, there is one mission (Airport) where you must kill the bad guy by getting him on the plane with a bomb. However, if you do not play one point just right, he will come after you shooting. If you kill him, the mission fails and if you let him kill you the mission fails. This is one point that is a major flaw in the game, but other than that it is a great game that provided hours of single player entertainment.
If you buy this game, you must get on xbox live to get the full experience. Playing with other people is the best way to play this game. You must build up a good friend's list or else you will often be playing with jerks on live. Once you have a good friend list, this is fantastic. I have played nearly 50 hours on line in team survival alone. Team survival is much more social because you can chat with all "living" members of you team while you are alive and all "dead" players once you are dead.
The graphics, sound, etc in the game are great. The voice commands are cool, but not really all that necessary. I rarely use the voice on single player, but communication is key to winning on xbox live. This is one of the greatest game on xbox live. It even beats Splinter Cell Pandora because you can have fun and not spend hours in frustration.
Great game for xbox live.

I bought this game as soon as i bought xbox live. I have been playin it on xbox live for about 2 or 3 months. It is very addictive. The downfall to playin this game online so much is that the campainge mode sucks when you used to chattin with people and tellin them where to move. In my opinion the single player mode sucks. The only reason you should buy it is if you have xbox live. Very good for xbox live, but horrible for normal play. Its like controlling retarded robots in normal play.
An Awesome Game

Ok, it is just AWESOME! I love the single player, as you can talk to your bots to do certain things. On top of this, its comes with a free two month sub to xbox live. Xbox Live really shows the true potential of this game. I haven't found anything i dont like about it so...just buy it n' stuff.
