Gamersmint Review : Splinter Cell – Conviction
Closing Comments
With Conviction, Ubisoft is back in the stealth action genre and Fisher’s homecoming is one to remember. Though short, the single player campaign is memorable and the co-op campaign is a blast. It takes everything that you would expect from the series and amplifies it well beyond expectations. This chapter should not be missed for fans of the series and even newcomers need not fear as there is no reason not to jump onboard. Had it not been for the dreaded DRM system, the complete lack of voice or text chat and the abysmal matchmaking, this game would have received 4.5 stars atleast. But these issues which plague the PC version, do diminish the experience especially the co-op campaign rendering it almost unplayable. Only fans of the series who don’t own a 360 should opt for the PC Version. If you posses a powerful comp and have the patience to deal with the online issues, this game would make a worthy addition to your collection.
