Gamestation are selling them normally. I went in expecting to blag an early sale but they were already on the shelves!

RS3 i greater, by far online.

Just overplayed it, I have.

And SC2 online is just an elaborate game of Hide and Seek.

And I hate Hide and Seek.

It's annoying at first. But once you start to learn the level layout and all the ways of getting back and forth it gets a hell of a lot better.

Currently my favourite Live game by a mile, I won't say it's the greatest Live game though as I've only had it since last Thursday.

Heh. I did it the oppsite way of taking them out and stroling through the carriage. First i shot all the lights towards where you entered that carriage, switched the switch to turn the lights off which then makes the civillian come to try and switch it back on. Knock him out, turn the lights back off if he turned em on and hide him in the dark, whistle to get one of the guard up, knock him out, then hide him, repeat this last step on the last guard and you're done.

Took me an hour and 7 minutes before i finally did all this without being spotted

It's impressing me very much, by far one of the best games on Live. Really superb stuff, quite like no other online game I've ever played.

You're really missing out if you don't get it.

> Does Splinter Cell 2 have headset compatabilities?

Of course it does, all Live games have voice chat....this isn't second rate PS2 online you know?

Voice chat is one of the primary things in Splinter Cell 2, this is one game that really does demand teamwork if you want to suceed. None of that going alone nonsense from Rainbow Six 3, you really have to work together. Anyway, if there wasn't voice chat, you'd never get the chance to sneak up behind enemies, grab them by the throat and yell expletives at them before you snap their neck.

Genius!

Splinter Cell doesn't seem to be impressing many of you, i wasn't planning on getting it as i've just got Rainbow Six 3. I'd probably like RS3 better than SC2 because i dont like stealth...especially on Multiplayer.

Does Splinter Cell 2 have headset compatabilities?
If not, i'd probably find it extremely boring.

I know what you mean, the emphasis of one team is to completely avoid the other if possible, I've gone 8 minutes as a spy before running into a Merc, but that's all part of the game (and mines usually help).

Yep had this too, it's because of the low amount of player and the fact that it's a new game, I created a game on the first day and it filled up in 15 seconds.

I also notice alot of

Ditto. (see above)

Some of the maps seem too complex.

Certainly, if you're a spy, you can find yourself going in circles every-so-often, there's no substitute but to learn the levels.
