First Splinter Cell 4 Info

[Oddmaker]

French game site Jeux-France (http://www.jeux-france.com/Blog_Sdv) has some new info on the upcoming Splinter Cell 4 game: (It's actully translated to English)

Today the title of next shutter SC is revealed. The history will occur in 2007. The scenario remains unknown but it is known that Sam will be present in Madrid, Lisbon, Rio de Janeiro, New York and Berlin.

Some Game Features:
- Sam will have to eat while doing the missions for a long duration.
- He will have to preserve his forces by doing sport (poids, parallel bars etc)
- Will be using a boat in the second mission (Cela remains dubious)
- Lastly, no information on coop mode yet.

The 4th Splinter Cell will be presented in March 2006 on GC, PS2, XBOX and the XBOX 360. A PS3 version of the game will not be released, Ubisoft and Sony wants Splinter Cell 5 for the PS3.

Editor: I hope this information entertained you, because it's false q:P

sounds like a joke to me, but who knows.

- It will have to preserve its forces by making sport(poids, bars parrallèles)


God dammit. When will the game makers learn that we are tired of preserving our forces by making sport? If I could go just one game without having to preserve my forces, I'd be ecstatic.

[Liquidize105]

Does anyone speak french? A more accurate trans would be lovely.

[divinechaos]

I hope this is fake, cause i dont want to eat or do bars or whatever. I want to hide and shoot people whenever i feel like it. And IF this is a real game, how come theres no versions of it coming out for the PSP or DS?

[Cha-Ka]

And IF this is a real game, how come theres no versions of it coming out for the PSP or DS?

That could be because FPS games on portable systems play like hammered shit.

[Venkman]

Sounds like Metal Gear Solid: 3. Eating to stay alive? Hunting (making sport)?

I want the action, not the boring parts. Let's hope part 5 doesn't force you to use the bathroom and hide your Splinter Droppings from wary guards.

[Tyrant]

It mentions parallel bars, so one would assume that involves working out...

This sounds kind of lame to me.

[CapnAJ]

It'll probably sport in game advertising, where the stuff you have to eat is from a well known food company... *sigh*

[Kagger]

I still need to play 3. My computer can't play it, and I'm not paying more than like 20-25 dollars for the PS2 version.

[Claus DuBois]

Who is Cela and why is she dubious? Was Cela the on-the-ground chick-agent that always hung back by the truck that I always thought wanted to get to know Sam a lot better ala Hot Coffee?

[Morrolan]

Ah, fantastic. Another game pushed out in the end of this console generation, when they should be focusing on a REAL sequel on next-gen consoles. FOUR fucking Spinter Cell games in four years? Come on.

[EL CABONG]

Wow sounds like a great way to ruin a very good series. I like SC more than MGS. I don't want SC to be more like MGS. I am not try to piss on MG I just like the gameplay and world that SC is set in more.
sounds like they are trying to make it more like MGS. Why?

[KDups]

That could be because FPS games on portable systems play like hammered shit.

Eh, that'd be true if Splinter Cell were a FPS. 3rd-person action games do just fine on portables.

Another game pushed out in the end of this console generation, when they should be focusing on a REAL sequel on next-gen consoles.

An installed base of 1-2 million vs. an installed base of 10-70 million. You're a business, which do you choose?

They have the PS2 and X-box versions of 3 at best buy for 24.99. Don't know how long it will stay at that price. It's in their weekly ad.

[Oddmaker]

I cleaned it up a bit :P

[snubber]

Can't comment on this now, I'm doing a set of poids right now.

[H.Bogard]

Quoted from yannis mallat - the asshole who ruined the pop series
"
THE STORY WILL START OFF WITH SAM UNLEASHING AN UNSPEAKABLE EVIL ONE MORNING WHILE MAKING SOME POPCORN AT THE WRONG TEMPERATURE.

THE GAME WILL CONSTANTLY GIVE THE PLAYER THE FEELING THAT HE IS BEING HUNTED...WHICH IS WHAT SPLINTER CELL IS ALL ABOUT BECAUSE MASTER SPLINTER WAS ONCE HUNTED AND LOCKED UP IN A CELL.....HENCE SPLINTER CELL ....GET IT???

SPLINTER CELL 4 WILL FEATURE A CATCHY SOUNDTRACK FEATURING RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, SLIPKNOT AND KORN... SAM WILL ALSO HAVE TATTOS ON HIS FACE WHICH NOW DEPICT AN EVEN "MORE MATURE" SAM FISHER.

WE HOPE THE SPLINTERCELL FANS WILL ENJOY OUR NEW TWIST ON THE SERIES"

i cant wait for it

[CrazyKooter]

this crap ruined gta:sa for me.

hey. i'm sam fisher. i'm being stealthy. i'm hiding from people in the dark. oops, my stomach is grumbling. don't want to make too much noise. better eat a fucking sammich. oh shit. i got shot. damn you turkey on rye!

[Kagger]

Ya...I know...but I just spend 20 dollars on 3 used games. No Manuals or coverart...but Spider Man 2, ZoE2, and Jak 2 for 20 dollars...well...too good to pass up.

[Furious Wang]

I loved SC3 and MGS3, but the eating and simdoctor parts of mgs3 were simply horrid. They added nothing but a distraction from the gameplay and an annoying, time wasting pain in the ass. If they add these "features" to SC4 or MGS4, both series will be dead to me.

[TrackZero]

This sounds like a joke, maybe the sarcasm was lost in translation.

[carneconcarne]

If I'm eating in a game, then I better be shitting. If I'm shitting, I better damn well be wiping, and if I'm wiping, it better involve two analog sticks.

[Flatulus]

This sounds like a joke, maybe the sarcasm was lost in translation.

It is... the site has an update:


The informations about Splinter cell 4 weren't right. It was a false information Please accepte our sincere opology. Thx

You are a logical, thinking human being who understands that the videogame industry isn't made of altruistic companies who want to make our fantasys come true no matter what it costs them...they are here to make money.

So why the heck are you posting here?!?
(J/K, excellent point. I do think that will be a definite plus if for 360 if they have SC 4 exclusively amongst the next gen consoles. As long as SC 5 shows up on PS3 and the xbox360 too.

[Morrolan]

I were a company, I'd pick NOT flooding the market with non-sequels and making even casual gamers jaded about my products. Remember how Hitman 3 sold? Even Neversoft is taking a break from Tony Hawk. The only franchise' which can sustain this sort of rediculous sequel-pumping are sports ones.
