Splinter Cell: Conviction Back to the Drawing Board

Submitted by on May 20, 2008 – 10:19 am5 Comments

CVG.com has put out a story that talks about Ubisoft going “back to the drawing board” with the latest Sam Fisher game, Splinter Cell: Conviction.  There is no real reason given as to why, but CVG is speculating that it has to do with the look and development of some of Ubisoft’s other projects, like Assassins Creed.

Currently two years into development, and delayed once already, it seems that the Ubisoft execs are pushing for gameplay and graphics that match up with their current gem, Assassins Creed.  Ubisoft Montreal is the current design team tasked with bringing this game to fruition.

The plot of the game hopefully will still involve Sam Fisher on the run, a rogue agent of the United States, and link into the whole End War convergance that has been building through all the Tom Clancy games.

    I’d rather hear that the gameplay was being refined, or that the Splinter Cell series in particular was getting an overhaul. Talk about your tired franchises.

    Graphically speaking it looked pretty nice based on screenshots I’ve seen in Game Informer – but gameplay and funfactor are a different story.

    Tired Franchise? Are you joking…the last Splinter Cell was as fun as any of them. The game does need to add more next gen aspects to it, but the series is far from tired.

  • It sounded pretty ambitious from what I read about it. I’m guessing that they tried to do too much and it didn’t work as easily as expected. A delay is preferable to a game that fails to live up to what it promised. I’m still interested based on the fact that they aren’t just shoveling out another Splinter Cell in the vein of the last 4 (which were all pretty much the same).
