    Absolute gaming heaven. Everything annoying about Pandora Tomorrow has been tweaked to perfection. I give it an 11.

    It's the best stealth action game I've seen. Or heard, for that matter.

    Never-before-seen graphics technology offers the best visuals ever to appear on any platform. THE best game on Xbox.

    If you're a SC veteran, you'll love this game. The only bad thing I noticed about it was that they didn't include the SWAT turn.

    A stunning acomplishment. You won't believe it's not a PC game, it looks so good. There are very very few faults with this game. It would be perfect exept: 1. The sound: The music doesn't smoothly transition when an enemy becomes aware of you. For example, you shoot out a light, the sound of the light breaking will cut out...and then the music will start. Maybe it's just taxing the Xbox too hard resulting in a small freeze. 2. Lighting effects. It's not as good as the older splinter cells. Your stealth meter will show that you are completely hidden, but it's obvious that someone should easily be able to see you. 3. Menus. Too many action menus. For example, I'm sneaking up on an enemy, and I want to grab him, but instead I push him off his chair and start using his computer instead! Of course, I navigated the action menu poorly. This is probably hard to fix on a consule, but you'll end up doing some pretty funny/stupid things accidently. This game isn't perfect. But it's closer than any other game I've ever played. It sets a new bar for AI, graphics, interactive environments, and the list goes on. This game will be the measuring stick for every new game in it's genre. It's gonna be really tough for them to measure up.… Expand

    The Co-op play in this game is amazing!!... with the screen split down the middle, if you have a wide screen T.V, you and a bussy will feel like you are each on your own screen. Although there are not enough missions for the Co-op play, I am hoping they will bring some out to down load, and this is by far the best feature to this new game, and they should improve on it. Mind you, the graphics are absolutely amazing, and if you have HDTV, you will see what I mean... you really will feel like it is so real... you may just have an accident in your pants..… Expand

    Splinter cell 3 is the best splinter cell game out yet, all the other ones I have played but never finished the game but this one is so good that I can't stop playing it. I rate this game 10/10.

    Chaos Theory has a lot going for it: great single player and co-op mode (with enhanced gameplay); awesome sound and good music. The graphics are truly incredible, pushing Splinter Cell: CT above its predecessors! Worth purchasing.

    Greatest game on xbox. Period. Online play is amazing, the frustration is gone thanks to the new save option on the pause menu. I keep on surprising myself with all the things I can easily do in this game. Very cleverly made. Oh and by the way Efe, I read your novel and I have to say this is a STEALTH shooter....hitman and punisher aren't exactly what you would call stealth. Blood doesn't matter unless you have no life and would like to see people die in pools of their own blood in real life. And why would you want to move furniture when you don't want anybody to know you've freaking BEEN there? 10. Greatest game I've ever played, even better than Zelda on 64.… Expand

    I think this splinter cell is perfect. Im new to the series and i still think this game is one of the best games i have ever played. the thing i really love the most is the new co-op mode. My friends and I have a blast with the co-op and the verus mode also the online mode to. I really think this game is perfect.

    In all things small and epic, from the palpable graininess of the game's predominantly poorly lit environments, to the endlessly thrilling second installment of the spies vs. mercenaries online competitions, Theory does not disappoint. [May 2005, p.44]

    It's simply brilliant. The modes, graphics, gameplay, sound, music, acting, dialogue, and every other little piece in between all come together to create a tense, sweaty-palm experience you can't find anywhere else. [Apr 2005, p.126]

    You can't be a serious game player and not have this game. It's simply a must buy. It is the perfect third in a near perfect game series.
