PS3 Can Handle Splinter Cell Conviction - Ubisoft

I played it as a stealth game. :D

Lulz, oh dear... *facepalm*

MGS did nothing for the stealth genre, well, except add convoluted narrative and nutty characters. Thief has always been far superior. I could understand if you never played a stealth game before MGS, though. MGS4 is an action game that likes to parade itself around as a stealth game.

MGS4 is a stealth game that gives you an option on how to kill your enemies. thats how true stealth games should be like, noble_aryan

Laughable discussion aside, I don't think anyone should've been surprised by this news. Were there people who thought the 360 was only capable of running this or something?

For sure it can. Probably it wouldnt perform as good :P

Of course the PS3 can handle Splinter Cell Conviction. Because it will be handling it when it most inevitably comes to the PS3. I mean Splinter Cell and Ubisoft do not have a good track record of concrete exclusivity, instead they have a very popular knack for timed exclusivity. I still remember my old roommate bragging to me about how SC would never come to my PS2.Javy03

MGS4 is a stealth game that gives you an option on how to kill your enemies. thats how true stealth games should be like, something liek that can never get boring and repetitive. you can beat the game stealthy, or you mite want to go all rambo, or beat the game without killing a single soul. with all the things you can do once you grab ur enemies. now thats freedom of choise. unlike splinter cell...."oops they saw me, game over"..psh get real man. dont try to bash a legendary seires like MGS to a splinter cell game

Oh dear.

You're serious aren't you?

No surprise there

As for the whole action game or stealth game, Metal Gear is a combination of both. If people wanna noob out and choose the easiest difficulty level then they can get away with some running and gunning but when playing the game on normal settings or above you find that you can't even get spotted without getting screwed. It's attention to feature film type story telling is a huge thing it brought to gaming as well. Like it or not devs have found that gaming can be a serious medium to tell a story. Me personally I love story driven games and would rather watch action packed cutscenes then run from villiage to villiage reading TONS of text trying to piece the story together like most RPGs or PC story driven games did.

This is common knowledge anyway that PS3 has a bit more power on paper then 360.

Considering that pretty much every splinter cell ported to the playstaion has been a watered down version (except the first) im not convinced just yet.

[QUOTE="noble_aryan"]

[QUOTE="Javy03"] I think that's a little bit of an exaggeration. If I recall correctly Metal Gear solid was the first game to bring out the now commonly used behind the wall camera angle. It also was the first to use the making a sound as a distraction if I recall correctly. It has improved and changed with each iteration and has really made some epic 4th wall breaking boss battles such as the ones against Psycho Manits and the End. But probably most importantly, it made stealth game popular. It is no coincedence that after the success of MGS games like Tenchu and SC came out. It showed devs and publishers that stealth games can be a lucrative investment.

Resident Evil 2 is a mixture of Survival Horror and Action but that doesn't stop it from being a True Suvival Horror game. It's just like that.

It's all in how you balance it.

[QUOTE="Verge_6"] Wait, so first you say MGS is a 'true stealth game', and then you agree with someone who rationally dictates that it's a mixture of action and stealth? You are quite the enigma.Verge_6

Survival Horror and Action are two opposite ends. It's all in how they come together. Like I said, a "balance." If you add to much action to Survival Horror it loses the Survival Horror and becomes Action, like RE4.

It's the same with Stealth.

Maybe not "pure," but "true," yes.

Oh dear.

You're serious aren't you?

Thank god for your highlights, because I didn't even bother to read that post. All I needed were those highlights. Wowzers, awesome stealth game! Rambo stealth.

[QUOTE="brothirhudsteel"][QUOTE="Chutebox"] Conviction isn't exactly a technical marvel (for consoles).

true. Ppl seem to forget that this is 360 gameplay! :D

[QUOTE="hakanakumono"]

[QUOTE="Verge_6"] It stops it if you combine two extreme opposite ends of a gaming genre spectrum and attempt to call it a 'true' entry into either one of them. That is self-contradicting.Verge_6

[QUOTE="brothirhudsteel"] I think it looks pretty darn good.Killzowner

true. Ppl seem to forget that this is 360 gameplay! :D

Hmm, why is your name "Killzowner" then? That game is dark and muddy, even more the Conviction. *scratches head* Oh, this isn't on PS3. Right...

One can only add a very little amount of action to a survival-horror before it stops being a 'true' survival horror game, and the same can also be said with stealth. The fact you can opt to go into a FPS-mode in MGS4 is where that line is crossed.Verge_6

"could absolutely execute on PS3' and that the games xbox 360 console exclusivity is entirely a business decision"

hmm i guess console exclusive is real

That doesn't explain anything. It's still got a dark and muddy look to it. And you were implying like you dislike said look. I don't see any consistency here.

so u got the stealth camo?

[QUOTE="Adrian_Cloud"]

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]

I have MGS4...

I have both AAAA games this gen. :D One is better than the other, as you can see, though. ;) MGS4 is a poor stealth game.

For sure it can. Probably it wouldnt perform as good :P

The same could be said with KZ2...or MGS4 running on 360 :P;)

Innovazero2000

Even I like PS3 more and I've gotta say that was weak... Killzone 2 does have great graphics, but it's color palette ranges all the way from black to brown... with some orange eyes... And Conviction looks dark and muddy because it's a dark game, the story is about a guy who has all but completely snapped after his daughter was killed... Why would he be running down a rainbow?

[QUOTE="Verge_6"][QUOTE="Javy03"] Have you actually tried to play the game in JUST FPS-mode. It's pretty much impossible because the level layout is not designed for you to JUST be in that mode. It was nothing more then a bullet point that Konami used to advertise the game. It's FP mode was used like a FP mode should be used in a stealth game, for accurately targeting your enemy. It's still a stealth action game and it's true to both. I mean some of people's definition of a stealth game is so strict I don't think any game would fit in it. By some of these people's definition if you got spotted once and didn't die its not considered a stealth game anymore. Stealth is just a tactic and MGS has many tactics in it's game. At the end of the day for me the only description about MGS that matters is "FUN".Javy03

360 could run MGS4 if you wanted to buy a booklet of cd's for one game... i don't think it could handle KZ2 though mate... Not bashing I just don't think it has the specs and the power tapped yet... at least not yet
