The wait for the release of some video games ends up becoming a reason for memes and disappointments in equal parts, as is the case with the long-awaited version of Bloodborne for PS5 and PC. While this is one of the most famous cases, it is not the only one by far. Splinter Cell fans know very well what I am talking about.
We have been waiting for a new one for over a decade Splinter Cellspecifically since it was launched Splinter Cell: Blacklist in 2013. And while fans can’t say that Sam Fisher has been completely absent (he’s had appearances in Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint, Rainbow Six Siege and The Division 2), the truth is that it would seem that Ubisoft has completely ruled him out if it weren’t for the missing Splinter Cell Remake.
Ubisoft managed to disappoint us once again by not presenting absolutely anything of Splinter Cell Remake (or anything else in the franchise) during the last Summer Game Fest. As a result, we fans continue to make do with the old installments, either by playing them or watching gameplays on YouTube. And I just rediscovered one of the most incredible details of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell from 2002 during this search, specifically of gameplays of the style “aggressive stealth” (aggressive stealth).
The detail is none other than that which shows the physics of an actuary shooting at glass: the water flows out until the level reaches the bullet hole. Although it may not seem like much in 2024, it must be remembered that this happened more than 20 years ago. In addition, it denotes a level of detail for which the company is not exactly famous. The question is: is Ubisoft ready to surpass the bar set by the classic games with Splinter Cell Remake?
