Gaming News - January 2003
San Francisco, CA (January 29, 2003) - Ubi Soft today announced that
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell has gone gold.
From Ubi Soft:
Since the release of the demo online, more than 700,000
downloads of Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell PC have transpired. The game is expected
to hit store shelves in mid-February.
Developed by the Montreal Studio of Ubi Soft Entertainment, one
of the world's largest video game publishers, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell was
released for the Xbox in November 2002 and quickly became one of the top
selling, and most highly rated game for that platform, with an average rating of
94.4 (out of a possible 100) based on a sample of 54 reviews.
Storyline:
You are Sam Fisher. A lone shadow-operative in a world where lost seconds can
allow terrorist plans to become deadly reality. You operate in the heart of
hostile territory. Spy. Steal. Destroy. Assassinate. Just don't ever be seen.
Because when the stakes are this high, the choice between leaving a witness or a
corpse is no choice at all. When two CIA agents mysteriously vanish in the
former Soviet republic of Georgia, the NSA's secret sub agency, Third Echelon,
deploys Sam Fishe--its most capable splinter cell operative--to recover them.
Fisher soon uncovers a deeper conspiracy: a plot that threatens to destabilize
the world order and spark nuclear conflict.
Details:
§ Covert stealth-action featuring a compelling original storyline and characters
inspired by the world of Tom Clancy and endorsed by the famous author.
§ Revolutionary lighting, shadowing, animation, physics, and sound effects
create an astonishingly realistic tension-filled experience.
§ Diverse stealth techniques including sniping, split jumping, zip lining,
rappelling, and using human shields showcase the amazing gameplay.
§ Experimental intelligence gadgets (night/thermal vision goggles, prototype
weapons and surveillance gear, etc.) give Fisher the edge against his enemies.
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell carries a -T-(Teen) rating from the ESRB and will be
priced at $49.99.
