One
of the most popular, most successful, and best-looking games
for Microsoft's Xbox is now on the PS2, and in certain ways
it's better than the original. Reminiscent less of games
like Metal Gear Solid and more of games like Thief: The
Dark Project and Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Tom Clancy's
Splinter Cell is a stealth-driven action adventure that
sends you, as operative Sam Fisher, around the globe on
numerous highly secretive and very dangerous assignments.
It
all goes down like something straight out of a Hollywood
action thriller, complete with plenty of big-budget production
values. The game isn't above reproach: Just like its Xbox
counterpart, Splinter Cell for the PS2 is a relatively short
single-player-only game consisting of heavily scripted missions
that can sometimes turn into trial-and-error exercises that
undermine the game's otherwise pervasive sense of suspense.
The graphics have also lost some of their luster in translation,
though some worthwhile new features and gameplay tweaks
make Splinter Cell for the PS2 more than just a watered-down
Xbox port. And at its core, it's a great action game, one
that's already met with tremendous acclaim.
In
order to be successful in this game what you need to do
most is to follow the guidelines given to you. These guides
are handy enough to lead you safely through the game as
long as you follow them thoroughly. To name a few, you have
Hints, FAQ, Walkthrough and Cheats
(mentioned above) which will guide you close to your winning
