    Although "Pandora Tomorrow" may be a difficult game to handle with all those broad controls, its very tense, realistic, and most of all, enjoyable.

    Two years passed and they changed absolutely nothing. Immersive espionage fiction, beautiful graphics, top-notch level detalization, incredible stealth arsenal and… same old complete linearity and ridiculous side-effects from excessive meticulousness to AI behavior and stealth design in general. Guards with perfect reaction, intuition and shared subconsciousness, auto-closing ordinaryTwo years passed and they changed absolutely nothing. Immersive espionage fiction, beautiful graphics, top-notch level detalization, incredible stealth arsenal and… same old complete linearity and ridiculous side-effects from excessive meticulousness to AI behavior and stealth design in general. Guards with perfect reaction, intuition and shared subconsciousness, auto-closing ordinary doors that regularly save you from troubles, civilians who somehow trained not to make a sound when being grabbed… such artificial details can be negated by great many positive gameplay elements and diverse levels. What is more frustrating is aforementioned linearity: Splinter Cell still forces you to play one exact way. The way where each room is a puzzle that too often have one and only solution which very likely will not match with your own perception of situation. The other thing to mention about new installment is its plot, more plausible and sensible but somehow much less absorbing… Though they introduced moral choices - feel what is like to be a undercover agent!

    Do play this game, if you like stealth and do not mind corridors pretend to be cities, villages, buildings, submarines, airports… Ingenuity of some stealth elements in Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow is real.

    Just a good Splinter Cell game, nothing more, nothing else. I remember it being more accessible and easier than the first one, thats probably why i beat it.

    It successfully integrates stealth gameplay into a multiplayer setting by pitting spies against mercenaries in a four-player, two-team competitive game, and we love it.
  2. The single player game alone doesn't really warrant a purchase-a rental is easily sufficient to see all it has to offer. However, players who are blessed with a broadband connection, network adapter and USB headset should have no qualms about buying this game.
  3. Obviously with the port to PS2 the graphics have taken a hit but not nearly as much as many people would have expected.
