You're always being pushed forward, so much so that I played through the entire single-player campaign in one sitting without even realizing I'd been up all night. This is going to be one long day for Jack Bauer Sam Fisher.Ĭonviction sets itself apart from its predecessors with its pacing. Turns out the people responsible for his daughter's fate are planning a major terrorist attack on Washington D.C. With new evidence leading to his daughter's killer, a tormented and semi-retired Sam Fisher is called back into action. Sam's daughter was killed, he murdered his best friend Lambert, and he split from Third Echelon, the government agency he'd called home for years. Don't worry, if you never finished that game, you'll get caught up quickly as to what's going on. The story takes place a few years after the end of Splinter Cell: Double Agent.

It was a huge risk deviating from the trial-and-error style that made the series famous, but it paid off.
That anger, that aggressiveness is built not only into the story but the gameplay changes as well. Sam's angry and you hear it in every grunted line of dialogue, can see it in the brutal takedowns and interrogation moves and feel it pulsating through Sam with every step. Of all the smart decisions made in crafting a new Splinter Cell title, this might be the best one developer Ubisoft Montreal made. ApSam Fisher is back, and he is not in a good mood.
