I bought this game the Saturday after it came out so I got the deal(the t-shirt and demo discs).Well when i turned on my xbox on I froze looked at that opening cinematic and said:HOLY CRAP!this looks amazing.I was right.If I were u i'd vote it 5 of 5 stars because UbiSoft has worked hard in making the best lighting in the world and it turns Splinter Cell into my absolute FAVOURITE game.For Ubisoft I hope u see this message I love ur company.When im able to get a job I wanna work for Ubisoft my favourite company in the world.I have 3 reasons to to explain that:They are very nice, They make awesome games and they have a buiding near me in Montreal.Even though im in Toronto its not that long away once u think about it.I have a billion more reasons but it would take u about wat 30, 40 years to finish reading em.Well if u can forward this thing to Ubisoft I want them to know they have an Ubisoft FANATIC out here right near them.

Interesting But.......

not as good as the first. True, it may have better graphics, more gadgets, and more cool ideas(new alarm system), but the fact of the matter is that Pandora Tomorrow just isn't as good. The plot is lacking and, if you've played the first, the voices are different(Lambert and Grimsdottir). In Pandora Tomorrow you just don't feel as involved.

Great, by anyone's standard. Possibly as good as original

Well, Sam did it again. Great game.

Pros: Realistic, Good controls, maybe more than the orignal game. Good weapons, Very intense at times. Great special effects.

Cons: Not quite as hard to play as original, though this may be a Pro as well. The Final part of the game was not terribly exciting, and fairly difficult. The final post game conclusion (The cut scenes after you complete the final mission) could have been a little more interesting. These cons definately do not overshaddow the pros though.

Overall, one great game. Maybe as good as the original (despite the end of the game).

XBox Live experience is terrible

The game is good but the simple things ruin it for me. For instance having to re-enter the Optimatch search every time. It takes forever to find a good game. If the game is full or closed by the time you get there (it happens a lot) then you get to do the optimatch search again. If you want a good online experience try Castle Wolfinstein, it is very easy to find a good game on there. I recommend against this game for online play.

The rest of the game is pretty good.

Splinter Cell Lacks the Xbox Live Magic

Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow is in all simplicity the continuation of the Sam Fisher missions. If you enjoyed the first SC, chances are you wont be upset by what Pandora Tomorrow has to offer, more of the same. The new multiplayer feature has been implemented into this game, which is where this game suffers greatly. On XBox Live, as I believe one previous review pointed out, it is nearly impossible to find an online game. When you use Optimatch to find the game of your choice you normally do not get in to a game. Why? I have no idea. Everytime I selcted a game it attempted to connect to the server and and then sometimes either froze, or after about 3 or 4 minutes of waiting it said the server cannot be found. This occurs too many times and greatly detracts from th eoverall online experience. Once you do get in to a game, it is not any better. People in this game tend to believe that they can just leave the game if they have a partner that, excuse my language, SUCKS, therfore ruining the game for everyone else. And do not try to host your own server, either, as you will be waiting for atleast 20+ minutes to fill it. In Counter Strike and other Xbox Live games, even Mechassualt, the first XBL game, I have not experienced such a terrible online experience as I have encountered with this game. Overall the Splinter Cell experience is repeated in the single player campaign and the Online play, no matter how revoltionary people belive it is, is a waste of time and a source of frustration. The game is well-deserving of three stars and nothing more.

I first bought this game because i heard from a friend that it was really fun and that the online play was awesome. So i went out and bought it. The thing i hated the most about it was that in some missions you can't kill the terrorists. Such as in the first lvl. Why the hell can't you kill the terrorists. If you don't they will just come back to bite you in the ass. I didn't enjoy running around and doing the same thing over and over again. Such as grabbing a terrorist by the neck and knocking him out or shooting out a light. It gets boring. After the first day of playin this i shoved it back in with the rest of my games and haven't pulled it out since. What a worthless piece of crap.

this game kicks a*#

PLAYED THE FIRST SPLINTER CELL AND I GOT HOOKED. TOM CLANCY HAS REALLY OUT DONE HIMSELF WITH THIS NEW ONE. THE GRAPHICS ARE BETTER, THE LEVELS ARE BETTER AND THE GAME IS BETTER. I WONT HAVE FREE TIME TILL I AM DONE WITH THIS GAME. JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOUR OUT CLANCY DRAGS YOU BACK IN.

What? No split screen?

I bought this for my kids because according to the box, up to 4 players can play at the same time.
Well, as it turns out, that means 4 different players with 4 different Xboxes... Yeah, like most siblings are going to patiently take turns playing this together. Most parents know better than to buy games for 1 player when they have more than one kid in the house, it just doesn't work.
So, I thought the labeling was very misleading.
From what I could tell, the graphics looked pretty good but I don't much else about the game play and all since I hid this game from my kids, so I can quit hearing them fight over who gets to play.

this game isnt very fun
