ROFL....I played Splinter Cell earlier today and it is SUCH a disappointment. I won't bore you with the details of why it's not the MGS beater it was hyped to be, but if it doesn't grow on me soon my pre-order is being cancelled.

Grand Prix Challenge demo? Only... 4 or 5 months after it was released?? Bizarre.

It's the mission where you need to infiltrate the Chinese Embassy.

The demo is great - graphically only slightly inferior to the Xbox version. All the lighting effects are there, but it's all at a lower resolution.

It plays every bit as well, but here is an almighty glitch in the demo - I was playing it earlier, and Sam Fisher managed to pass through a wall while I was sneaking around and get stuck! Expect something that major to be sorted out for the final game.

What mission can you play on the Splinter Cell demo?

I'm getting the magazine some time this week! I've alreafy got this month's edition of PSM2 and that has a preview of Splinter Cell and the making of it on the DVD! It looks great, I can't wait! I want to get it on the day it comes out from SR but before reserving one I am going to try and win GAD and get it that way!

*prays to win GAD*

It is the PS2 port of SH2: Restless dreams which was released on the Xbox, it is at £19.99, so if you did not buy the original then it is worth it until SH3 comes out end of May. It has an extra ending and a sub game.

I thought the original had enough extras...remember the free DVD you got with it? Even though it wasn't very good, it was still there.
