Nov 14, 20127It's actually a pretty fun game. Gameplay has a bit of a learning curve but you get use to it quickly. Campaign is short but the multiplayer experiance is rather fun. I enjoyed it.

May 14, 201210Brilliant 2 player feature...and the fact that its a different story from the single campaign makes it more intresting...It literaly made me an my friend whisper in the living room..

Apr 8, 20129I was never a big fan of the other Splinter Cell games. Found them a bit clunky - all that split legged climbing up wall nonsense. Conviction was quite a bit different - and all the better for it. Some fan boys of the series might not like it but I did. This was one of my early purchases. The game was so good I played nothing but this - then on completion on medium skill, played it again on hard.

Mar 24, 20128I love this game so much, it's very interesting and unique. probably the best graphics i've seen in a ubisoft game since the 2008 Prince of Persia. Plot is so-so but the combat and camera angles are perfect. Best Splinter Cell game in ages. A Must Buy

Feb 20, 20127Splinter Cell: Conviction was really fun over all. I liked the story and the gameplay alot. their were parts i was a little bored during but over all the game was good. their were NO glitches and the gameplay was very smooth. I really enjoyed it. It's worth the money and something you should try out. I give Splinter Cell: conviction a 7.7/10

Nov 22, 20118The story looks fantastic and graphic is great but a short length and the voice acting again by Michael Ironside is a top-notch and the music is good but much to the monochrome and the motion capture looks great and i really like the new feature but i kinda the missed an old feature from the old splinter cell.
-
Nov 12, 201110Mind blowing game.i loved this game so much the only problem with this game was a very short campaign,Gameplay was awesome.I hope that in next installment we will have a longer campaign than this game.But overall this game is mind blowing for 3rd person shooters.

Jul 11, 20119No one will stop Sam Fisher, nor do you. Slick control is perfect for stealth and combat, strong voice acting gives life to the awesome story and the flashy black and white ( in the shadow) adds cool effect to it. The multiplayer is appealing, i set more with the co-op mode, versus is sometimes frustrating , but it adds tension. Conviction never felt so good

Jul 4, 20116It is a decent game. If you're looking for another thrilling stealth game like the past splinter cell entries, then don't buy this game. It's turned into more of a guns blazing shooter game and it's way too short. It has a nice co-op campaign though. If you can find this game for cheap then go ahead and buy it for a couple hrs of entertainment but don't expect to be wowed.

Nov 24, 20108I blew through the single player, and found it to be fairly easy, but it was a lot of fun while I was going through it. Overall it was a good experience, the stealth missions played out very smoothly, I was impressed with the polish, not too much in the way of glitches.

MartinP.Apr 19, 201010This game was awesome it has ivolved splinter cell into a new era.All it need was more stealth missions but above that the game was awesome. Sam Fisher is like the modern Altair he kicks ass.. Ending was cool but would have been awesomer if president would have died. so there could be a sequel

HarrisBApr 19, 20103Look at all these Xbox Mags. They always give Big Points to fairly hyped games, no matter how bad they are. Even the Xbox Gamers dont care about this stupidity. Maybe they are just glad to have another shooter game of its kind. If you are a demanding gamer stay far away from this one. It will be underwhelming for you if you are 10 years of age or older.

SamApr 17, 20108Short campaign, but excellent gameplay mehanics such as the PEC challenges give you a lot of incentive to do something besides genera-action shooting (which seems to be what so many are complaining about. The campaign and multiplayer on realistic mode are a blast. Lack of replayability made me score it an 8.

RyanFApr 17, 201010This game is awesome so what if its different wasnt that the point to give the games something new to expierence. This game is really good in fact you guys should go buy it right now if you dont have it. Screw anyone who doesn't like this game, its amazing.

JamesDApr 17, 20109Conviction might not be to everyone's taste, but I found the experience fairly addictive. The single player might be short but there is a lot to do afterwards. I do however feel Conviction leans too much towards shooting at times but stealth has never felt this refreshing.

ThomasHApr 16, 20109Ubisoft have given Splinter Cell a new lease of life! Change is hard for some people, but Sam has taken it in his stride. A little short in the tooth on single player, but damn don't Archer and Kestrel make excellent candidates for an epic spin-off. Well worth investing in, but have an open mind it's not the old... it's the new.

AndrewOApr 16, 20109As a hardcore fan of the series I was skeptical but this is a fun step in a new direction. You feel more lethal, but if you screw up, you die real quick, which is a nice balance. The presentation is very slick, with the story unfolding in an engaging, mysterious fashion. What little multiplayer I've played is a lot of fun, and I can see myself playing it a lot.

WillCApr 15, 20108Enjoyable game, the mechanics and co-op are outsanding. It's a short singleplayer but the co-op bring the hours put in up to par with the average game 15-20 hours. Not a fan of the Sam Fisher character but the story carried my interest for the full playtime. I'd suggest fans and non fans to rent this first as it's a radical depature from the previous Splinter Cell's.
-
-
DynamicEApr 15, 201010Frankly I couldn't ask for more. While a substantial deviation from prior games it stands up well against the best of them. It is a faster, slicker game with some of the best co-op I have yet seen. I cannot recommend it more highly - a truly superb game.

JasonBApr 15, 20102Just more evidence of games being dumbed down to appeal to kids and the drooling masses. Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory was a masterpiece and the climax of the series. This is just shameful corporate compromising to make it another soulless, simple, easy-money-making "angry gritty protagonist" generic tripe. One more nail in the coffin of gaming, and another franchise ruined.

AaronApr 14, 20109This game is great. Granted I've only played the single player campaign. The story is intriguing and the gameplay is excellent. I have always been a fan of the stealth aspect of the Splinter Cell series but I agree with IGN in that the old gameplay was getting stale. This game changes that and gives SC new life.
-
-
JoeD.Apr 14, 20107This is not a Splinter Cell game in anyway shape or form except for the fact that it has Sam Fisher in it. The game is fun and entertaining but it just won't be what the true fans were looking for. I really hope Ubisoft goes back to the traditional SC formula next time around if there even is a next time.

RahulG.Apr 14, 201010This game is simply awesome. While some may complain about the new direction of the game, splinter cell needed to reach out to a bigger audience.

TrevorH.Apr 14, 201010Amazing game! If you are rating this game below a 9 then you really should find another hobby or you had no business buying a game in the genre in the first place. This a gamers game...pure gaming goodness!

AdamS.Apr 14, 20108It is a fun romp that comes bundled with lots of co-op extras, which was the selling point for me. I've never been a HUGE Splinter Cell fan, but enjoyed my time in Double Agent, and gave this one a go as well.

NipsyyyFireApr 14, 20104Wow my most anticipated game of the year sucks!! Well kind of it had it's fair share of good moments but it lost what everyone love about the old splintercell games!! I completed in 5hours and 49 minutes! WTF fair enough there is co-op campaighn but 5 hours and 49 minutes i remmember Ubisoft saying the main story was 19-22 hours long Epic fail hope alan wake's better!

isaacisaacApr 14, 20101"This game" is gabage, they took away all the elements that made SPLINTER CELL being a successful title in favour of so-called "wider audience". Now what we get, a non-special 3rd person shooter with awkward level desigh and extremely short SP campaign compiled with dumb enemy AI. 1 star for the name.

SamS.Apr 14, 201010Once you get used to the new gameplay you will know that this is probably the best game in the series giving you the choice of going all stealth or a faster more action gameplay with amazing story and pretty good Graphics this game is just perfect.
-
-
IcecreamtreeJohnsonApr 14, 20109Very enjoyable evolution of the game concept. Players are meant to play more aggressively than in previous SC titles. More adversarial multiplayer content (a la Chaos Theory) would have made this a ten.

JoeS.Apr 13, 20103It's not bad but it only took 4hours 10minutes to beat... has some replayability but in reality it's going to end for most players when the credits role. The gameplay itself is fun but shallow, hampered by dumb AI and redundant mechanics. Lifespan 2 Gameplay 7 Graphics 8 Story 7.

SamsonD.Apr 13, 201010Stealth? The only reason this game is not stealthy is because you apparently dont play the game like you should to be stealthy. You can run and gun use stealth or a wealth of things. This game is the best possible change to SC that could ever have happened. Amazing game.
-

DerekT.Apr 13, 201010Absolutely incredible game! innovative and refreshing new features. well worth the time we had to wait, and an amazing addition to the series. buy it now if you're a splinter cell fan!
-
-
JoN.Apr 13, 201010It's not the same breed as previous splinter cell games but it rocks! Nice gameplay, nice AI, nice story! A lot of replay value even in single player campain if you really want to explore the stealth elements. And with the nice COOP addon, it's a must buy!
-
-
ApocalypseBrownApr 13, 20108Solid game, good and welcomed change to the overly stealthy Splinter Cell of the past. However game get marks against for the pointless Iraq level, and the sub-standard length of six hours! And I must add those PS3 dick head fanboys please stick your heads in the oven or something, Uncharted is incomparable with this game so SHUT UP!

omi25pApr 13, 20109For a gaming franchise i have cherished since i was a child and enjoyed each type the stealth and planning that you had to do in the originals playing this even though i enjoyed this game i cant help but be disappointed with the little the game reminds me of the originals.

-
JamesC.Apr 13, 20103It seemed more of thrill from the teaser trailers from previous months. But in the end, it's a just a shame that a game with much potential couldn't offer a unique experience from what I wanted. Some of the action element games weren't even exciting. It seems that the developers got overconfident and messed up the game. Here is hoping that the next game isn't as terrible.

MannyLivchakApr 13, 201010This game is way better than some people said. The stealth is great, and a few minor flaws don't mean much.

FredT.Apr 13, 20100Disastrous preposterous. A shame that it carries the name Splinter Cell. This game tears it apart and not in a good way. It's mundane, repetitive, we've been through this, except now it's we've done the TPS a number of times this gen, not wow this is the stealth game I've been waiting for! Skip it.

93It was a huge risk deviating from the trial-and-error style that made the series famous, but it paid off. Splinter Cell Conviction is awesome.

Splinter Cell: Conviction isn't the series' high point, but it does get the franchise back on track. [May 2010, p.89]
-
80Splinter Cell: Conviction is faster and more action oriented than previous games in the series. It's getting closer to a third person shooter, but Conviction has not lost its unique Fisheresque soul. This is great entertainment.
