Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Double Agent

Here’s a clip that I have not seen until now for Splinter Cell 4 (XBox 360 & PS3) which is due out in September of this year. I cannot get over how good this game looks but correct me if I’m wrong, does the AI seem pretty dumb or is this an early build with no intelligence attached to the NPCs? I do hope the baddies get an education before the game is released.

Looks pretty good. Although I thought MSG4 looked better, but it was hard to be sure the MSG4 trailer wasn’t just FMI rather than engine footage.
It had a number of pre-release issues that I saw. Yeah the NPCs seemed a little thick when being shot. Also the gun didn’t have any flash or otrher indications it was in use. And the player character didn’t seem to react to being shot so realistically.
Overall the animation for the main char looked great though
Which is often the problem for next gen titles. Screenshots make you go wow! But then when you actually play the game the animations are so poor it totally ruins the realism.
Yeah it is tough to say what stage they were at with this game come this trailer. Usually they’ll say “this game is 70% complete…” or something. WYSIWYG is not always the case with games.
