Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent
About the Game
In Sam Fisher's first next-generation adventure, the splinter cell has a tragedy befall him. Shortly thereafter, Sam's life collapses around him. He becomes more distant from Third Echelon. In fact, he even goes so far as to get himself arrested.
Story & Setting
Moral questions will pop up in various places throughout the game. You'll be visiting the JBA headquarters in New York City, you'll travel to the Congo to rescue a soldier, you'll board a cruise ship in Cozumel wearing shorts in broad daylight with minimal cover, forcing you to change your stealth patterns.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Do you shoot a prisoner to earn trust with the JBA, or do you hold off, keeping the NSA on your side? This trust system is a new addition to Double Agent. Your best weapon is your mouth. Your configurable weapon is really a backup. Multiplayer is similar to the past Splinter Cell games.
Standout Features
- You can go in guns blazing, but you won't get far.
- When hanging by a rail, you can let an enemy guard walk by, or reach up, grab him and throw him to his death.
- Your missions are varied, and all can be completed without firing a single bullet.
- Each side has its own unique weapons and items.
- Spies do not have conventional weaponry, meaning nothing that can kill a merc, but they have several gadgets and devices to help them.
- The PS3 version includes some additional content: a new female spy character (multiplayer), two new maps based on a new environment (multiplayer), a new set of co-op challenges and some refinements for the existing content.
- Mercs are blessed with a high-powered rifle, grenades, and the ability to toggle various vision modes.

Presentation & Atmosphere
