    Splinter Cell: Conviction – Teaching Kids about Stealth


    Splinter Cell: Conviction is a videogame built, on the sentimental level, around the concept that a father and his child share a deep connection and that the concern for their safety trumps everything else. The developers at Ubisoft Montreal were not even particularly subtle about the theme, transporting Sam Fisher back to when his daughter was a small child in the first 10 minutes of Splinter Cell: Conviction.

    With the young girl sharing with her father a fear of the dark, the Third Echelon man, who is accustomed to striking out of the shadows and using the dark to even the odds against superior numbers of enemies, cannot resist giving her a few pointers on how stealth can work to one's advantage when enemies are around. He uses simpler terms like “the dark” and “monsters” and “sight” but everyone who has played a Splinter Cell before or has the faintest idea about how the games work knows that the developer is actually talking to the player and telling them how they are expected to tackle the game they have just started experiencing.

    Has anyone here played this game (PC version)? Is it good or not worth the money? I was going to buy it the day of release but after seeing some of the reviews it has made me reluctant to do so.

    NOPE! 17+ [MA]. As if that ever stopped any child from getting it? Being its on steam, they just need daddys credit card, and a faked age.

    I finished it, it's "alright", the graphics are a bit outdated and the campaign is a bit short and easy.
