    I just downloaded and played the Splinter Cell Conviction demo. It's really short but the take downs are pretty cool and I like the way the game prints your objectives on walls/buildings. The whole thing reminds me of Arkham Asylum. Any thoughts?

    Is it like the original Xbox games or like the rubbish Double Agent?

    It's quite different to the older SC games, much faster and action-y. The demo's pretty good, short though.

    Downloaded it today, finished it on all difficulty levels and must say was impressed. Wasn't too sure of the the new "mark and execute" but it really does add a new dimension to the gameplay as it gives you multiple ways of clearing a room. Was disappointed it was a bit short but level was obviously cut down to show off new moves especially as I later saw the the proper version of that level in a video walkthrough.
    The interrogation scene at the start was very satisfying. Me likes the new Fisher!
    I used to think Double agent was crap but I sat down and gave it a good go and finished it like I did the rest of the series. My conclusion is that its the 2nd best of the series behind Chaos Theory. The suspense of doing two jobs for the 2 different organisations without getting caught was brilliant. Good story and it really started getting tricky near the end.

    Double Agent was actually the first Splinter Cell I finished and I must say I did enjoy it but it was very different game/feel to earlier games. I'm currently playing through Chaos Theory and imo DA feels more like the new game than the old games. Less stealth and more action but in a good way.
