Splinter Cell demo on OPS2M uk this Friday

If you\'re still not convinced, perhaps it\'s as good a time as any to point out that the Official PS2 Magazine has Splinter Cell as its lead demo this month - available fully five weeks before the game\'s March 28th release. A playable one level demo is also on its way to EG by the end of the week, and we fully expect it to deliver one of the most welcome surprises that PS2 gamers will have seen, and serves to create a new high water mark for visual excellence on the PS2, and unquestionably the finest stealth action title on the platform, by a mile.

Well, I\'m gonna check my bankaccaount this thursday and if I have enough money I might buy an Xbox with Splinter Cell. Somehow I feel I HAVE to play the original SC first, getting the
PS2 version can always be done later. (if at all...)
Certainly it\'ll be good on PS2, but ... think about it ; The visual
greatness CAN imo only be done with Xbox or high end pc hardware. The PS2 version is bound to have compromises. In
the \'garage\' screenshots of the PS2 version one can see a big
cut down in poly count in the environment and cars, not even
to mention the overall less crispy picture.

Well because I own the X-Box version, there will be no reason for me to consider buying the PS2, GCN, or PC version.  I barely play it, so I\'m getting through it very slow, I must say though it is a very enjoyable game and I reccomend it to you all.

The games really are quite different in their execution.  Ones opinion of either game shouldn\'t effect your judgement of the other.

Got it yesterday and it sucks donkey balls , it\'s just plain dull and boring add to that the worst control system I have encounted in a game+ a dodgy framerate and ai.

MGS2 anyday over this tripe.
