Title: Splinter Cell:Chaos Theory for DS A NO? NO?
Post by: Babyboy8100 on March 29, 2005, 11:22:18 PM
Okay i love splinter cell ever since the first one camed out i loved everything about it the gameplay the graphics i really think its better than MGS thats why i didnt care that the GC would'nt get a real MGS as long as we get SC its cool. now i've seen a couple of screen of the nokia ngage ver of the game and i gotta say it looks pretty good now if they can do a 3D game running like that on the N-Gage now think about the posibilities on the DS with the touch screen use to pick locks,cut camera wires,you know stuff like that and of course a little better graphics. No linking directly to image files please. Do you guys think Ubi soft wont bring it out on DS? BUT WHY!!! it makes so much sense to realease it on the ds.

Chaos Theory is coming out for DS, sometime in June I believe. Sadly, it's just going to be a port of the 2D GBA version with crap touch screen menus or something.

bad move ubisoft... this has potential.. you could have your sticky cam/optical cord on the bottom screen, not to mention an easier, more intuitive gameplay interface (instead of the context sensitive button,they could have you touch the item/place and then sam will get in position to us it. )
meh.. i suck at game design

Proof please? That would be really dumb if they did that. I'm inclined to think that even they'd believe that to be a complete waste of the system.

The N-Gage version has a terrible framerate, but it's still an awesome technical achievement. It'll be a shame if they don't even try with the DS version, and just port one of the rubbish GBA games.

It's possible the DS version might be a port of the N-Gage game.
UbiSoft did that with Asphalt: Urban GT DS...

Ubisoft's list didn't show a DS version of Splinter Cell. Prince of Persia: WW was listed though.

It doesn't say whether it's 2D or 3D though

Not to revive an old forum, but the first pictures of Splinter Cell DS have hit and it is indeed 3-D.
So yeah, at least more people are putting work into their DS games, even if it is UbiSoft.
Sorry to say, but I believe that pic is fake. Notice the gun ammo on the top and bottom screen. The top screen says 23 amo, while the bottom says 0.

I was beginning to think that too, but there's always hope for some good speculation. Also I noticed that usually the image caputres from the DS are a little better looking and there's something like a black bar in between screens. Needless to say, that even though this is fake, there could be some truth behind it.

That picture looks horrible. I can't see that as being real, or even a good hoax. Hell, it isn't even cropped correctly. And the ammo thing is just blatant.

Um, games always show incorrect figures when still in development...The screenshot is a fake for other reasons, not the ammo counter...

Yeah, I could imagine they didn't implement the lower ammo display yet or just took two screenshots from different situations and pasted them together.

If you want, IGNDS just gave a complete story about it.

"wow, the cynicism....."
Technically, you're being cynical yourself.
Why is the gun pointed there in that one screenshot? No gun should ever be pointed there.

whatever, someone can't point out cynicism without being cynical? your loophole logic might fly with you but even by your own logic....what about you now?
yes I was being negative about the negativity, that doesn't mean I'm a cynic. Look it up. For the self-proclaimed position you supposedly hold here you should be smarter than that.
It was just ridiculous how everyone yelled fake as well as how everyone expected the same craptastic version the N-gage got right off the bat. How about a little optimism? Am I the one exhibiting jaded negativity?
Nope, just the one pointing it out.....

Thank you for proving my point. You assumed I had the worst intentions in mind when I was actually just being a smartass. I was hoping you were in fact aware of the irony when you posted and did so with tongue in cheek (as I did), but judging from your backlash to what I thought was a harmless joke it seems I touched a nerve. The first step is admitting you have a problem.
I know what cynicism is. You assumed people were being cynical. That is the motive with negative connotations you imputed to their actions. Therefore, you were being cynical yourself. Words can have more than one meaning.
And to answer your accusation, yes, I'm cynical and fully aware of it. I never said otherwise... in fact my self-proclaimed title of smartass hints at it and that was part of the (lame) humor I hid behind my comment. I was poking equal fun at both of us. This mutually recursive loop ends here.
"whatever, someone can't point out cynicism without being cynical?"
Sure they can, but "wow, the cynicism..." is not the way to do it, and neither is throwing a hissy fit when somebody unintentionally calls you out on it.
...
Lighten up. I'm not being serious.
Let's go back to discussing just why Ubisoft would release such an obviously sexist and possibly chauvinist image. And why use such a big gun? You don't need that for what it's aiming at. I call penis envy.

Back on topic...
Not bad looking at all. Seen one of those Hi-Res shots and I must say it almost looks sexy, almost. I think Splinter Cell is a great franchise for the DS if itcan be pulled off right.

What's that red outline around the character supposed to be?
"Paladin, it's cool but you don't know nearly as much as you think."
And there's your jaded negativity. Thanks for assuming how much I think I know in the first place. I may not know as much as I think I know (I wouldn't know), but I know enough to have had the decency of making it clear I wasn't serious. Sorry for the "hissy fit" comment, I wasn't aiming to offend you.

Post by: La_Mard on May 11, 2005, 11:47:12 AM
Paladin, it's cool but you don't know nearly as much as you think. I also don't appreciate the "hissy fit" comment because just because you said it doesn't make it true, you're only justifying things to yourself and as it just so happens, you're the only one with the loop. So I didn't respond well to your lame humor. I don't care.
Nile Boogie...yeah I know! I'm so excited about this game. Not only have I not played any of the console version of this (I got discouraged by the first one's linear level design and limited movements for the character which I have read have now both been addressed), but I just truly feel that this genre or any genre in general that is heavily inventory based can benefit greatly from a touchscreen, you know?
Paladin: Ok, that's enough....this isn't me. I'm just playing with ya now dawg. Let's chill! Hee-hee, couldn't help it....you're cool.
Yeah, I was wondering about that outline as well. I take it you haven't played CT on a console then? Anyone...what is that?
Title: RE: Splinter Cell:Chaos Theory for DS A NO? NO?
Post by: PaLaDiN on May 11, 2005, 12:50:34 PM
Fine with me.
I've played CT on my PC... single-player though, haven't got into the multiplayer yet. Maybe it's some sort of tag thing and the red outline is it... it seems to be caused by the laser from the gun though, so it could probably be some sort of attempt at a lighting effect.
