I'm more a Halo kind of guy, but the graphics are really cool, actually the lighting is amazing, that's what makes this game different. The action is ok. The re-play value is none, once you find out how to do something (after hours and hours) the next time you will do it in minutes.

The music is really bad. At the beginning it's pretty boring, like the first 7 levels, but then it starts to get fun...specially when you can use your guns. It has some cool gadgets and Sam body movement is great. The AI of your opponents isn't impressive.

But in general, if you already have Halo, this is a game you could buy :)

Stealthy and clever...

Unlike most games, you can actually do things without going by what the game is programmed to do. In each mission there is a new alternative and is extremely stealthy. Where shoot baddies count and with the ability to throw soda cans and hide bodies, you can make clever moves to assist you on the mission. The controls are easy for a button polluted Xbox game. The graphics are great and you have a back view of your character making moving much easier than a first-person shooter. I only played a demo and loved it, but I hope the PC version is the same or similar since I want it badly and don't have an Xbox!

Nothing short of down right AWESOME!

This game was given a rating of 9.6 (the highest ever given) by XBox magazine. And let me tell you that rating was deserved. This game is so addicting, challenging, and cool that you won't be able to put it down for weeks.

The story revolves around your character in the game, Sam Fisher. You are a NSA (National Security Agency) operative. When NSA needs info you go in. You use a variety of tools in your trade. Everything from pick locks, frag grenades, flares, your silenced pistol, your totally cool thermal goggles, to your sniper rifle which is equipped with sticky cameras, gas grenades, electrical shockers and more. You have a variety of moves at your disposal. Such as putting your back against a wall, drop attacks, peeking around corners, split jumps, using human shields, going hand over hand on pipes, rolling etc. And you'll need these when you sneak in to a presidental palace, burning buildings, police station, slaughter house, embassy, you name it.

And as if all this isn't fun enough one of the games key points is hiding and sneaking around in shadows, which sometimes involves shooting out lights to make your own shadows, to avoid gaurds, dogs, security cameras, turrets etc.

I hope that if you took the time to read this I've convinced you that this is one awesome game. Oh and as a final note, did I mention the replay value is great?

one of the best games on xbox so far!

I love this game. Splinter cell is one of the best games i have played on xbox. I love the graphics on light, shadows, curtains, sounds, ect. The gameplay is fun and challenging. You use stealth instead of going on a shooting rampage. I can't wait till splinter cell pandora tommorow comes out in march for xbox.
it's gonna have even better graphics and also you use camoflauge instead of shadows.

Best XBOX game to date!

This game is action! But it ain't that serious! It's an absolute comedy! Absolutely hilarious!
