Who honestly can say SS is a better game than the MGS? yes, some prefer the realism of it..but story, character, gameplay-wise....MGS games own it.

Theres No real replay value in splinter cell games, besides multiplayer...i had the chance to play SCDA and that had to be the most horrible stealth game i've played, mainly due to the stupid idea of having to be a double agent and working for the bad guys (worst part)

I don't think ubislow care anymore, but instead to make a quick buck..with there trashy ports.

Am i right, or am i right?

Wrong. I've enjoyed the splinter cell series far more than the MGS series.

So, fail. Still, it's a matter of diff'rnt strokes for diff'rnt folks.

Splinter Cell VS MGS is the WORST comparison in SW and it takes a special kind of fanboy, perferably one of young age and lack of interaction with the opposite sex to put them together.

Wow seriously, because they both incorporate stealth? Or maybe I missed a SC with the giant robots and enemies with supernatural powers?

Splinter Cell is an awesome franchise, and I actually like it because it's realistic.

Nope, played them all, i liked choas theory the best, but like i said...its just can't compete with MGS on any level besides realism. which is barley something to brag about.

ROFL. Metal Gear Solid has trash for gameplay while Splinter Cell actually has a refined system which is far more deep than 'aim the sideways laser dot at the bad guy.'

Sure, Snake has a nice character and there is a good story, but MGS' stealth gameplay is simply to unrefined for me.

Maybe to you MGS4 will own convictions. I prefer Splinter Cell. Your opinion, my opinion, as long as you have fun playing what you like. I like MGS on the PSX, thought MGS2 was ok, didn't even play part 3 and I'm not looking foward to part 4, so to me SC owns MGS.

I agree. MGS is a lot more of a unique franchise than SC, which is still a good game, but it's not as interesting to play.

Why "my god..." I got bored playing part 2 and didn't want to play part 3. It's just my opinion, please don't let it stop you from enjoying the series if you like it. But you can't tell me what I like either.

Gameplay-wise...MGS3 is much better than 2, give it a shot, atleast...also has better boss battles.

Splinter Cell for gameplay here. But MGS always has better story, characters, presentation, just feels more epic as a production.

I've played both splinter cell and MGS, personally I hate the Splinter cell storyline and I love the story in MGS but I didn't feel that the gameplay in MGS was really stealthy, so i preferred the gameplay in splinter cell but it had a lot of trial and error plus it was too slow

Think SC gameplay beats MGS slightly, and the controls have been a lot more fluid.
Tho in this comparison, SC is a prime example where gameplay isn't everything, like some sheep make it out to be.
Overall I'd easily take MGS over SC, a lot more so after DA and Conviction looking like the crap that was Assassin's Creed.

HAHA, Ughh I normally support PS3 and bash 360, even though I own a 360... do a search of my posts on the forum if you can. Or you can just look at all the Xbox 360 vs pc threads. Then again cows are pretty defensive when you say anything bad about one of thier only hopefully AAA titles.

I prefer Splinter Cell by far. MGS's gameplay is far too rough around the edges for my liking, especially compared to Splinter Cell's tight, realistic gameplay. MGS certainly has a better story and more interesting characters, but at the end of the day (at least for me) the gameplay is what matters.

I think they are both overrated crap, that should be receiving 7's and 6's respectivelly. I hated Splinter Cell so much, that I didn't even complete the training stage of the first game. The story seemed generic, the controls were clunky, but let me say the game graphics are amazing. The game was utter crap in almost every way. Now with my experience with MGS series hasn't been good at all. I l played MGS3, and it was unbearable and I quit right after the bridge scene. It is so boring, and slow paced that anyone that who could think hiding in shadows, and waiting 3 minutes is fun? Honestly the only reason I've been paying attention to mgs4, is because it appears like it changed this garbage.

"Splinter Smell"? Wow. Are you five?

And how can you judge the Splinter Cell series off of the worst iteration, the one involving the least amount of stealth in the series. At least play Chaos Theory. Double Agent was also made by a different developer than the others. So judging Splinter Cell on DA is like judging Call of Duty on COD3.

Nah story definitely matters, which is why I can't stand the praise for Ninja Gaiden. I'm not going to sit there and play a hard *** game with a crappy story and no payoff just because it has "good gameplay".
