    Played the demo. Pretty crap like all the splinter cells. When I first saw promo videos of him walking through crowded places I thought it might be a completely new direction for the series but it's just gotten more action orientated.

    I pre-ordered it with sendit.com and it was sent today so should hopefully have it on Friday. I've never used them before but got it from them because it was only €44.

    I went with the Hut for a preorder on this one. Got it for £34 so was too good to pass up. Really looking forward to it now after seeing those reviews. Looks to be a good one.

    The game is good, the marking system as per the demo is really cool. Especially when you get used to using it and thinking ahead, pre-marking 3 guys in advance that you want to shoot attacking a 4th guy and doing a take down to give you the ability to execute the 3 guys you marked.

    Have to say played it for a few hours yesterday and have been flying through it which is a pity. Havent looked it up on the net but I wouldnt think I have loads left in the game so id say the 5 hours someone posted could be accuarate enough and there arent many parts where you get really stuck. Still very enjoyable though if you like the Splinter Cell games.

    Looking forward to this. Played the demo the other day and I shall definitely be picking it up on Friday.

    Seems to have gotten good reviews. Hopefully it'll all be worth the wait.

    I'm quite looking forward to playing this, a five hour suits me fine right now. The multiplayer modes sound pretty substantial too, especially with an enthusiastic partner to play with!

    I'd say €50.

    Amazon have the standard version for £37 and free delivery or the Limited Edition for £40. Extra £3 for a silenced shotgun and making of CD.
