Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow

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 than the first and second mushed together. Bring on March '05

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 haste.

SUMMARY:
You'll likely read all sorts of reviews masturbating on how great this game is. Don't be fooled. These reviews are from people who don't care how much money they spend and a crappy game. They are just happy to be playing some cheat piece of crap game no matter how bad it is or how much they have just been ripped off.

Take my advice. If you want to play a game that gives you the freedom to truly beat the levels using your wits and stealth skills, find another title. Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow is like one of those Disney course where you drive a car on a closed track with a metal track keeping you on the road. The game "steers" you through each level forcing your to do "what they" want you to do. See a guard and are certain you can sneak past him? Sorry, they want you to do something else. Want to shoot some ass in the head? Sorry, they want these terrorist kept alive. Wow Ubi, what message are you sending here?

So spend the $50 bucks, fire it up and prepare to be ass-mounted. If this is your idea of fun, you'll be on your haunches with ol' Ubi riding you all the way home! Yee haw!

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:

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 good as you can zoom in at things and really notice the detail.

The sound is not as good as the first game and of most the voices sound the same, plus the sound like they are robots with some metal gismo in their throughts. The music is good though.

The physics are as good as the last and there are a few new move that you can do.

The multiplayer is kick ass, as you can either play as the spies (what your like in single player) or you can play as the terrorists. The terrorists have some sort of machine gun and they are in first person mode. They also have haet seeking goggles and electro goggles as well.

Overall the sory line is excellent and this is a great game and I recommend it to all, so buy it.

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 pretty descent. Enough to put up a challenge against the mercenaries. Some things do seem a bit rusty but any more realistic would probably make the game less fun.

The multiplayer is one of the most distinctivly unique parts of this game. A brand new type of multiplayer action based on stealth. Something that was never possible with split screen, now is possible with XBOX Live and System Link. For now it's one of a kind and does bring much more value to the game.

Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow is one game everyone should try. Whether you like stealth games or not, it's at least worth a rent for both XBOX Live/System link Players and Single Players. It's one game you likely wouldn't regret giving a chance at.

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 game unlike anything you've ever played.

Graphics: Looks great, with some very realistic lighting and shadowing. Second best looking Xbox game behind Ninja Gaiden. The enviorments look amazing, but character models aren't all that impressive, especially with their akward animations.

Sound: Turn up the surround sound because this baby sounds great! Excellent use of surround sound. Everything sounds very realistic and you can actually hear exacly where the sounds are coming from. Best sound i've heard in a game yet.

Control: Controls great, as the original did. Very responsive and the aim feels good. Buttons are well mapped.

Story: Better than the original, and less confusing. Basically, terrorists want to do very bad things, and you've gotta prevent it.

Replay Value: The single player is a great experience, but with a lack of unlockables I don't know if you'll want to play through it multiple times. The multiplayer's where the replay value's at. The Spy vs Mercs gametype is awesome and completely different from anything you've ever played. You'll be on this for months.

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 and that my friend is where the game shines...you get ahead alot quicker in this game if you and your partner work together, and this can be challenging, some people just run off into the sunset, but when you do find those people that are cooperative, then the game becomes an artform...trust me!
