The extra Splinter Cell levels (on Xbox) will also be available on a future OXM disc.

Oh that's cool. I guess they got all the bases covered .

I'm going to need to get hold of that disk though, I don't have BB. Add that to the fact I live in England with an NTSC Xbox...

Yeah, PC will probably be best of all. And there are tons of downloading abilities there.

The exact moment the "GCN only has kiddy games" madness stops...

Anyone seen the latest PS2 screens of the game? Looks alot better than the previous ones, Xbox comparable, even...

The only missing items would be the blurring of some textures, and lack of enemy shadows (which undoubtedly will be fixed for the GCN version), but so far so good...:eek:

I'm not excited at all about this game. So I couldn't care less.

Well, look at this:

Quote:
January 17, 2003 - Publisher Ubi Soft told IGNcube today that the GameCube version of Splinter Cell will be delayed until May of this year. The company said that the title is running behind the PlayStation 2 port, which is still on schedule to ship in March.

Splinter Cell, a third-person, stealth-centric action game, follows special operative Sam Fisher through nine missions of high-tech enemy infiltration and combat. The game was heralded as one of the best titles of 2002 by critics, and went on to sell more than one million units for Xbox through the holiday season.

Ubi Soft said the GameCube incarnation is more or less a port of the Xbox original, and that first screenshots of it in motion would be made available next week.

It's been delayed and they also said the port is about the same as the original. It will be interesting to see some screenshots. Hopefully Ubi Soft won't compact the screenshots again like they did for the first batch of PS2 screens though.
