Its a good plot, but I do believe that banks and various institutions routinely clean or at least radiate the money as it flows. Plus I also regularly wash my hands and I would hope other sensible people wash their hands after handling dollar bills since we don't know where the heck they have been? Sheesh, makes me wanna go wash my hands right now!!

when Ubisoft acquired THQ Montreal, they took on every contract and agreement that they had in the acquisition. So in essence, as long as the agreement was written and not verbal, he has a case against Ubisoft. I feel that Ubisoft didn't wish to pursue that game because the timeframe and probably the gameplay would be too similar to Assassin's Creed so they canned it, I mean you have Black Flag coming out and several games, I the series, have occurred back in time. He probably fought to maintain it, under both his contract and the original agreement, and they fought back and decided to remove him. As such his case has merit and should not be taken lightly. However, if his actions were having a detrimental effect on productivity then they had merit in firing him but he still had a contract and should still be paid for it.

I think he did a great job of pointing out flaws in the structure, which is basically what these guys are supposed to do. Did anyone think that maybe those other games that got higher reviews were "" duh duh duh duuuuh"" over rated!! I mean those other games had flaws too, COD is basically the same every year, Gears is the same every two years, Halo is the same basically, anyone seeing a pattern? Everyone likes different things, Tom Mcshea reviews these types of games and he is the type that is critical of the smallest stuff. If you don't like it, tough, its an opinion and it wont stop you playing! So why complain?

Length is a factor, for a game that has a compelling story. Companies can't make the story too long and lose the appeal yet should not make it short and too unmemorable for those who played it. Every gamer's taste will change over the years, and with that their selections and choices, i used to buy just about any game as a kid, now I only buy what I feel is good or is really cheap!

Ah ok, im watcing this and seeing how bad the hit detection is on this game, even on local lan connection. At least its the lag is not the total cause of all the crap! Seriously, in reality it does not take half a clip to bring down a person. Im watching these guys pumping clips in guys to kill and then they die? Really this is not tournament worthy!

@revenantjj No, i liked it too. People over look the fact that you can choose how you play. It made it easier to survive if you make a mistake and get caught and also made it accessable if you wanted to go assault instead of tactful. Thank you and i thought i was the only one who liked it! My only complaint here is that they are making Sam more youthful and with a different voice and they introduced an other american splinter cell and what happened to him after conviction?

I liked conviction, it made it more smoother to actually kill an enemy. It was practically a nono in previous games to kill with a gun. I remember in the second game, i shot a guy in the head who was standing right next to me and the guy didnt die and razed all hell over it and i died seconds after that. In conviction an actual head shot was lethal to an opponent and it gave you the means to combat large groups of enemy AI while also throwing larger groups at you. when I think about the first three splinter cell games, you only had a couple of enemies show up in a room at any given time, in conviction there were more practical applications of enemy groupings for more challenge. I played that game dozens of times. The only aspect of blacklist that i dont like is that they are making Sam Fisher look and act younger than he really is and they removed Ironside as the voice actor.

when the economy improves and people start to make what they should be making then you will see videogames have better sales. its the economy that drives these sales, since these games are niche items and when people cant afford them they wont buy them. Besides, most companies share game engines and just modify them, im doubtful that any major portion of the cost is from development other than creative and design. the major cost now a days is marketing, companies just need to give the game sites and major fans and bloggers free one on one time with a game and they can determine if the game is good or not and help the designers make it better than justg assuming what people want to buy. COD is a prime example of what a company should not do, granted many still play but its a terrible game. It was ruined when they desided to take away the players control and assumed that this is how I wanted it to be played.

Here's an idea for you. He doesn't die at that ending scene, but the future is changed again. The game has alot of what if, and who knows, since they are going the pay for more way you will see more of booker and Elizabeth.

Man what a world we live in today, had to rephrase this comment several times due to how I want to say this. Religion is a strange subject. Religion is one man's salvation and another man's burden or death. It gives a man strength and hope in bad and dangerous times, and it is the salvation for a human on their death bed. Again I had to redo sections of this to better say what I should say. A good story based on religion will be a good one. AAH, sheesh Ill stop right here!
