Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow

It's a cold night and the air is still. Not the greatest of working hours, but hey, everyone's got to make a living. The guard spins around suddenly, gun raised. He was sure he had heard something, but now only silence greets him. Cautiously he approaches the deep shadows that was the source of the sound. Only the guard would never hear another thing as Sam Fisher dispatches another obstacle and continues on his mission.

Sure, stealth ops sounds like so much fun. Distract enemies then nimbly slip around and take them out in a variety of ways. However, fiction has a tendency to glorify things, and so when realism is brought into the picture things can turn sour. For all the good concepts Pandora's Tomorrow does I feel that this is the game's problem. By trying to appear so realistic the developers forgot what the purpose of games actually is and they end up hurting the product overall.

SC:PT is a stealth game where the goal is not to charge in Rambo-style but to...

THE GOOD:
Amazing graphics
Light shadow effects
Player movement is fluid
Good online play

THE BAD:
Dull menus
Some insanely hard parts

SUMMARY:
Ever since playing the first Splinter Cell, I have been anticipating the second installment. The first was awesome, with a captivating storyline and fun gameplay. Furthermore, I could download new levels. This second Splinter Cell follows in the first's footsteps very well. Most characters are still around, Sam Fisher is still wearing the famous black suit with night goggles, and the terrorists are at it again. The 17 single player levels are great practice for online play, which definitely defines a whole new genre. The mercenaries vs. spies structure is perfect, and can lead to hours of great fun. Judging by this one, I can assume that SC: Chaos Theory will not dissappoint.

THE GOOD:
Better graphics than the first, that means that they're amazing
Bigger areas to explore
Cut scenes look like you're watching a film
Enemy AI is now mind-blowing
The train level is THE BEST!!!
In-game jokes
Yet again the lighting is awesome
and Yet again, a cool story
SUCH COOL GADGETS!!!

THE BAD:
Still can get very frustrating at certain points
Still needs more checkpoints
more ammo and more guns
err....thats all

SUMMARY:
This improves and revamps everything that was great about the original. Graphics, story, AI, cutscenes etc. are all totally cool. Small things like the ability to confuse your enemies by whistling from where they can't see you is just so funny, and the fast paced train level is f*ckin' the best. I love this game, you love this game, everyone loves this game.

Every Xbox owner should have this game. I've played the third one (Chaos Theory) at Game Stars Live, and its better...

THE GOOD:
The graphics are at least as good as the last Splinter Cell. This I find as a good point considering so many games actually get worse. That UbiSoft is using an advanced physics engine as their main selling point is a shame. There is no deference in this or any other Splinter Cell game.

THE BAD:
Well, how about the phrase, "You've blown it Fisher!". You'll hear this far too often as your game play is stifled by the pathetic limitation imposed by the unimaginative game developers. "Here's a whole bunch of cool weapons and toys to use, except, you can't have them in almost all the levels, and the levels you can have them in, well, you can't use them because it will break some restriction." I hate when developers make a game that is so annoying to play that would rather watch grass grow then be tortured by the constant reloads and game glitches. This is a crappy installment and not worth a dime. I plan to return the game post...

THE GOOD:
it is one of the best online games ever if you dont have it .why dont you have it

THE BAD:
nothin bad about it unless it needs more regular downloads and bee a bit cheaper but there are so meny people who have it so there is online players one 24/7

SUMMARY:
omg it is so gd if you have it add my gamer tag and tell me you found me game tag on neo seeker.splinter cell was such a classic they had to make another then another you have to own it. and get all three of them there all quite cheap all the tom clancys games are useally good .YOU HAVE TO OWN IT! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !! ! !! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !! ! ! !! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

THE GOOD:
~The stealth like game play
~The graphics
~The physics
~The detail to many things
~The cool moves you can do
~The multiplyer (if you have live or system link)

THE BAD:
~The enemies make stupid movements

SUMMARY:
This game is a must own (especially if you have live or sytem link) as the game makers have added in multiplayer this time round.

The game kicks off straight away (as in the last game there was a training mission). They kind off mixed half of a level with a practice part but you don't really notice it.

The game play is way better this time where there is more action harder difficulty and better levels. As seen in the pictures from the images page you can see that this game brings you into the jungle for the first time. This is quite interesting and makes the both the games different and unique.

The garphics are still the same but they are still good. The detail to things is extrordinly...

THE GOOD:
Definitly the graphics and environment

SUMMARY:
A guy like me usually is too impatient for stealth games. Very few stealth-only games I like. Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow is one of them. This is one of those games that even if you don't like, if you play it for at least a little while and try to play it how it should be played, you'll get into it.

The graphics, lighting, and environment is the most appealing part to me. Gives off a dark grimmy feeling.

The sound isn't bad either. A rather fitting soundtrack to each level.

The gameplay is much better than the first splinter cell. It something to readjust to but it feels natural once you got it. Lots of new controls like whistling to lure mercenaries. Everything is pretty much like a puzzle and must go through several types of different obstacles you must deal with to stay invisible or much less stay alive in the game and be able to make it to the next area.

The AI is...

THE GOOD:
+ Awesome Graphics
+ Superb Dolby Digital Sound
+ Great Gameplay
+ Good Story
+ Cool New Moves and Gadgets
+ Good AI
+ Fun, Unique Multiplayer

THE BAD:
- Occasional Glitches
- A Few Fustrating Trial and Error Moments

SUMMARY:
Gameplay: Stealth gameplay perfected. Sneaking around in the shadows taking people out by surprise makes you feel like a real spy. There's a number of ways to take people out using the enviorment if you know what to look for. You have a number of gadgets you can use to take people out as well, or you can always shoot them in the face. There's also the occasional bomb unarming, code breaking, etc to mix things up. The multiplayer is awesome, one team is spies and the other team is mercs. The spies control like Sam does in the single player game, while mercs play like a first person shooter. The clash of styles really makes a fun and very unique multiplayer...

THE GOOD:
Everything! Oh you get to visit the maps, memorize them and practise different approaches as either character if you wish!

THE BAD:
Nothing...well ok quitters, but that has nothing to do with the game...

SUMMARY:
First off I am not going to go into any great detail here, the other two reviewers said more than enough, and I am sure most of you already know all about the gameplay. What I will say that if anyone is unsure as to whether or not they should get this game, then perhaps this review is for you. Without a doubt in my head I believe that this is the best multi-player online game out there, and I have played alot of them, from Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six to Unreal 2 and Crimson Skies. Now the reason its so friggin good is that it stirrs emotions within you that no other multiplayer game can achieve...hunting down the spies or escaping the hunt as a spy, there is no greater thrill...but best of all, this game encourages teamwork...

Sam Fisher is out of hiding and is once again creeping around your room in Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow. And hes back in a big way. After two years from his first release Sam is back and better then ever. This game is a must have for anybody anywhere! But the biggest feature ever given to this game is its Multiplayer.

But lets start out with the single player. The single player has all new features and add-ons for you from the first Splinter Cell. Sam has new moves, and new gadgets. The enemy A.I. has be upgraded and become more deadly making the game not as frustrating as the first one but still pretty hard. For example, you won't keep dying for some stupid little reason. And even the graphics have been increased from a game that seemed like it couldn't be improved. Once you get to the Jungle level you will just be in awe with how beautiful and well detailed it is. It is amazing. The story line itself is very mature and a bit confusing at times but it should all...
