Wow. Nice crack at Montreal Yahtzee. While I have a completely different opinion of Conviction, it was still a funny review. And that end joke was hilarious.

Episode wasn't that funny, but i agreed with most everything that he said. game wasn't horrible, but it wasn't worth 60 bucks, that's for sure.

That was funny. Liked the American joke bit about keeping the ape.

And yes, I never find any appeal of Splinter Cell games.

Fair points on the bad stuff (I actually agree with all of them pretty much) but no mention of any of the good things. I know this isn't uncommon, but still.

That's... actually a good point. They do it with official news stuff sometimes, where you can't comment straight away.

Good review, thought it ended a tad abruptly, but it had me laughing throughout.

Spliter Cell isn't a good 'steath game' it's more of just a shooter with steath elements.

In a linear stealth game, the stealthing is more like a puzzle to be solved, and it's less about skill than about figuring out what the game wants you to do. Nonlinear levels allow you to be creative.

At least that's what I think.

I hated the fact that reload was clicking in the Left Stick.

And the cover system is ripped of Ubi's own Rainbow Six Vegas. But that's a good thing.

Awesome review. I have a friend who just sycophantically worships all things Splinter Cell, so it gets old after a while. I don't really like Hitman, though.

Either way, the whole gag with the little man on Sam Fisher's back had me in stitches. Great review, and congrats on your novel.

Yes, made it to the first page!
If Yahtzee invaded the white house, and made a video of it....
