But I agree with gekko the main concern here is a controller. A keyboard and mouse won't work with Splinter Cell very well in my opinion. I suppose you could have a nice controller for your PC, but I haven't seen many that I like.
I wasn't just talking about graphics. The frame rate on the PC version (if you have a good one) will be a hell of a lot faster on average than the console versions. And if I'm not mistaken, you can probably play with a really high resolution on a 'good' PC. So all in all, it WILL make quite a big difference (with the right PC, which is what I said in my last post)...

About the controll issues. Well, there aren't any. You can buy adaptors that allot you to plug in console controllers.

This game should've remained exclusive to Xbox.

But it's not and everyone shall know it!

Perhaps I'll get it for my Cube one day... a used copy or something.

I seriously think the 'Cube could do everything the XBox version of Splinter Cell could do, but since they aren't Factor 5 it will just be downgraded like most XBox ports will most likely be in the future.

Nearly everything. But in order for a game to look good on Gamecube, the engine must be specifically designed for Gamecube. This game is designed for Xbox, then ported. It would cost way too much money to make it look just as good on Gamecube.
