Its going to be a sure hit!
e.g If I was playing Metal Gear Solid 2 with Playstation quality graphics there is no way I could enjoy it as much than with PS2 quality graphics.
...... I'm also worried about all this hype aswell. I really hope Splinter Cell does live up to the hype, because there is nothing worse than buying a game which has had rave reviews and when you play it, you cant believe how it got such good reviews. I know many people who have had that same opinion of Time Splitters 2, many of my friends bought it because of the rave reviews, but 2 of my mates have taken it back because it did not live up to the hype........ However, from what I am seen in terms of screen shots and movies of Splinter Cell, it does look promising.
The only game I am really suspiscious about in Project Ego (Fable)....... it has been very hyped, and I just cant imagine it living up the the hype. some of the things that have been stated for the game sound TOO good to be true! If Project Ego lives up to the hype, the screen shots and the gameplay aswell as features, it should be AMAZING! But some things you are supposed to be able to do in Project Ego just sound too good. I hope it is not!
Anyway, no matter what the hype, I will definitely get Splinter Cell, because it looks as if it will be a classic. Whether it will..... remains to be seen.
