Doesn't look very good.

Far too dumbed-down and linear with too much auto-aim.

Nice idea though, so maybe there's hope yet...

Haha!

Yeah, now although I said it was disappointing, I still found it great fun to play. It was just that this is the third game in the series and it still follows the same formula, albeit its numerous improvements.

The multiplayer rocks, yeah, but it did bore me after a while, and eventually I sold it. The solo player was a bit of a hit and miss affair, ranging from amazing to generic and boring.

And this is what I mean. Ubisoft just milking their franchises, and its annoying me. But many people seem to take a liking to their strategy, but for some reason I find their games stale and now pretty much unoriginal. Certainly not bad at all, but they bore me now.

CT was 'disappointing'?

Better multi + plus online co-op + a large does of humour + it was a vast improvement over pandora tomorrow + you could set your own challenges with the efficiency percentage score at the end of levels and this gave it loads of replay value.

Best SC game yet!

Well their games on DS have been atrocious, and Splinter Cell CT was disappointing. Pop 2 was alright, but what happened to all their original games? And I want a Beyond Good and Evil sequel! Rah! :p

Ah well, R6 Lockdown looks pretty good. Can't comment on Far Cry.

Nope, they just don't know what they're doing with driving games. Dukes of Hazzard was awful too.

I can't believe this is an Ubisoft game. Oh deary, deary me.

It'll sell, but Ubisoft are churning out pure crap lately. And all their once original series (Rayman, Splinter Cell, P.o.p) have been milked to all what they are worth.
