Splinter cell: Conviction

Sam Fisher. Off the grid. Outside of the system. Looking for the truth.
For years, Sam Fisher has been on his own, off the grid, looking for his daughter’s killer. He soon finds out the trail leads to the last place he ever wants to see again: Washington D.C. Now Sam must work with old friends he can no longer trust, forced to save a country that used him and turned him rogue. Unless he can stand against both a vast, faceless enemy and a corrupt Third Echelon, he’ll never know the truth of what happened to his daughter.
In this newest edition to Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Conviction, Fisher become an enemy of the state, embroiled in a conspiracy that leads all of the way back to Capitol Hill.
The Splinter Cell games have always been great, starting with the very first Splinter Cell, which was for PS2. Everybody loves a good stealth game and Splinter Cell has it all. From playing the demo, I believe that this game is well worth a look. In fact I’ll wager that original fans of the Splinter Cells will agree when I say that this is the best one of all. You might think that Ubisoft seem to be dragging the story out, but I don’t believe they are. No gadgets, new intense fighting styles and a whole lot of stealth. It’s a Sam you’ve never seen before. 
Release Date: April 13, 2010
Console: Xbox 360, PS3
