That bites, I'm a big Splinter Cell lover, so hopefully with the long hiatus this game will live up to my expectations. At least I have one more thing to look forward to for 360 in '09.

maybe Ubisoft didn't want to release another turd in the market this year (Haze)......they need to space them out or they might be viewed as a 3rd rate developer.

Seriously though, I can't believe Haze was delayed so long and it turned out like this. I'm not willing to believe it's a 4.5 game because I played the demo but it wasn't even on par with Resistance which was a launch title. I bet Ubi is crapping their pants right now hoping the poor scores that are probably going to be coming in dont' effect sales........which of course they will. Then you are going to hear about an X360/PC version very soon......they have to recoup that money somehow.

Man I love how the cows have twisted the just wait argument into an argument against delays when it isnt. The point is the PS3 still doesnt have many good exclusive's and no one ever claimed no games every get delayed on the 360.

It's delayed till whenever actually, going back to the drawing board means they've totally restarted development.

Probably because they felt it was too similar to Assassin's Creed, maybe. I for one, would've liked it :(

Eh, I'll wait for a more reliable source (never heard of that site) and more info before passing judgement, but it's certainly an interesting decision. Not only because of how promising Conviction seemed, but because it's a Ubisoft franchise. At the risk of sounding like I've been hitting the Hatorade I'd speculate the problem was that Ubi Montreal was unable to squeeze what they wanted out of the 360 (in terms of the AI and interactivity between the player and the world).

I read through the post, nothing says it was delayed till '09 except the title, here's another post:

'Well, this is according to a report in the latest issue of Xbox World 360 magazine anyways. As of now, Ubisoft hasn't officially released word on the state of the latest installment of the Splinter Cell title; however, the magazine is saying that it heard the title will now be ready for holiday season 2009 or as late as Spring 2010.'

They've restarted everything. Concept and all.

This really sucks, a huge blow to the 360's lineup in my opinion. All I really care about this year for the 360 is Gears 2 and Too Human.

Microsoft has a big stake in this game too since the reveal of exclusivity, I'm pretty sure they weren't happy with where it was either, so they were willing to chalk it up for '09 or 2010 to get it where they want it.

I actually forgot about that game. Untill I read the title of the topic.

Only games I have on my mind this year are.

1. Gears 2

2. Fable 2

3. Killzone 2

4. Little Big Planet

5. Left for Dead

6. Wrath of the Lich King

And a few others.

halo wars, alan wake, splinter cell conviction, and as lemmings love to say and make topics about...

just wait!

hellrazor06

All of those except Splinter Cell aren't even worth hyping because we don't even know what the hell they are. And I've yet to see a lemming list Splinter Cell amongst their hyped games of 2008.

Compare with the high-profile games delayed on the PS3.

Then rethink that post.

The way I see it, 360 has beat Sony in 08.

09 however is Sonys year, and that is coming from me.

360 needs all the million sellers in 09 it can get.

:( My expectations for this one isn't very high. I LOVED Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory...Chaos Theory was probably the best game last gen. AMAZINGLY good A.I.,graphics,and level design,co-op,and spies vs mercenaries...whew I loved that game.T_T -sighs- What made them want to go into this direction?

Yeah it's a rumor from the magazine "Xbox World 360" so I'm tentatively calling shenanigans, at least until Ubi confirms/denies this. It just doesn't make sense to kill a game that's already been in development for 3 years (IIRC) because it's been "outdated by more recent gaming developments", especially considering I wouldn't call Conviction's gameplay (at least what we know about it) outdated by any means.

Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy XIII Versus, Gran Turismo 5, God of War 3 and Killzone 2.

And Project Gotham Racing 5 won't be made as the developers have left to find something else to do. (Bizzare)

Announced among them

Splinter Cell and Alan Wake!!

never get your hopes up without announcements and with the recent trend even when they are announced keep in mind they are going to be delayed for another 6 months after the announced date
