Description
The player takes on the role of Sam Fisher, an operative for the National Security Agency's sub agency, the Third Echelon. The Third Echelon consists of many Splinter Cells. It has the support and resources of the major U.S. intelligence agencies, but will never be recognised by the U.S. government. If any cell of Third Echelon is captured or compromised the government will disavow any knowledge of its existence and the remaining members will vanish.

Fisher is inducted into the Third Echelon with an important first mission. Two CIA agents have disappeared in T'Bilisi, Georgia after investigating communications blackouts in the area. Fisher will uncover more than a couple of corpses when he infiltrates the Georgian government and unveils a threat that will have devastating consequences for the American people.

Splinter Cell is a stealth-oriented action game set in a Tom Clancy-inspired landscape. All kinds of cool high-tech gadgets are at your disposal to help you neutralise terrorist threats. Night vision, thermal vision, EM sensors, sticky cams, and other whiz-bang tech toys help you spot the bad guys, and your broad array of weapons--lethal and not--include suppressed pistols and assault rifles, sticky shock bombs, Ring-Airfoil Projectiles, and the most lethal weapon of all: Sam Fisher himself. Climb, mantle, and sneak your way through a game that won E3 2002’s “Best Action/Adventure Game” award as well as the Game Developer’s Choice Award for Excellent in Writing. With a tightly-written plot, unbeatable mechanics, and an iconic character, it’s no wonder this is the start of a long--and excellent--series.
  • Includes Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell®: Mission Pack with three additional missions: the original Kola Cell mission, Vselka Infiltration, and Vselka Submarine.
  • Go Behind the Headlines into the real world of modern espionage.
  • Diverse mission objectives achievable by different means for increased replay value.
  • Highly interactive environments giving players more gameplay options and the ability suit their actions to their preferred gameplay style.

Awesome! but....

....I feel like the console port are just much better, i played this back at my original big fat Playstation 2, it was AMAZING! I'm a huge stealth-game fan ever since i picked up Metal Gear Solid for the original PS1, and im not trying to make a consoles VS PC flamewar or anything, but some games are just made for certain systems, like certain FPS's are made for PC, and certain RPG's or TPS's are made for consoles, this is one of those times, now one thing ill have to say, PC games will always look better than the console version, mostly because a PC always can be faster, and better than a console, but also because of communities that make MODs and Patches. (although there are a FEW examples of games out there that CLEARLY look better on consoles, but thats another story) the point of this review is, it doesn't matter what platform you play your games on, play on whatever console, or whatever typer of PC you want, Splinter Cell will be a good experience on all of em, this game was revolutionary, while MGS had a solid story, Splinter Cell had solid gameplay, (and well.. a decent story i guess, not the best but whatever) Final verdict: If you are a stealth-game veteran like myself, this is a must, but you most likely have tried it already, however if you're new to the PC version, then give it a try, i personally didn't care for it since i don't have that much time for gaming nowadays, but you might LOVE it, 5 stars.

Great game - very atmospheric but ...

it's less than £5 (about $8) on Steam so GOG loses on price. They should throw in a bit more Bonus content to sweeten the deal. Game is definitely recommended, though.

Didn't work for me.

So I *have* to give it one star. It simply didn't work. Of course it might for you, if so then great, but fo me, it's still just a one star waste of time. Luckily I got this when on a free promo offer. It consistently CTDed, I couldn't even get past the training missions. It would not last more than 5 minutes without a CTD. So you all you disgusting "hey we don't like your opinion! You have to give every game five stars no matter what whether it's shit or good or works or not, it's the GOG review page law! So we're gonna downvote you and then get all my mates to do so and get them to get all their mates as well" negrep gang rapers, well go suck one, or two, or a whole mile of 'em. The game is STILL ONE-STAR because IT DOESN'T WORK! Hi InkPanther, hi lupinshadow, hi Breja, hi Falran!

Great game but priced $5 too high

This is a good game but it's priced $5 too high. I don't mind paying $10 for a classic game if it's REALLY good. This isn't one of those $10 gems though. Honestly, there are only a few games on GOG that are worth the $10 price tag. Drop the price to $5 and it will get 5 stars from me.
