Ahem.

Well, maybe time for another run:

Should look great and on my 106-inch projector no less!

Good for you. I guess that means you'll be able to play the first two games with proper graphics in the future, unlike PC users. On newer PCs SC only works with projector shadow mode which makes shadows look like ass, but it's still better off than PT, which has no shadows at all, and not only looks like ass, but becomes borderline unplayable too. So yeah, good for you. At least CT still works as it should.

I wonder what the "remastered HD" thing means though.

Man, those look great. When I get my PS3, this will be snatched up fast. I have them all on original Xbox, but I really like the idea of them remastered in HD and on 1 disc.

You gonna get a PS3, gunny?

Gimme yer ID when you do so we can hook up :)

I was promised one for my birthday in June.

THe Blu-Ray, free MP, and the exclusives have me sold over the 360.

Hopefully this includes the bonus levels for SC1 (Vselka, etc.). I doubt they'd add the levels from Essentials, but that would be nice (maybe as downloadable content down the road). Then we'd just need Conviction on PS3, not that I'd heard anything good about it, but I would snatch it up for ten bucks or so.

Porting the last-gen version of Double Agent would have been awesome. I know they are thinking the game is already a native PS3 game, but I own both versions and they are completely different games. The last-gen version being far superior, playing almost exactly like a fine-tuned Chaos Theory. Last gen Double Agent is, and will always remain, my favorite Splinter Cell. The first one is hella nostalgic though.

Ok guys. I need a new game and have very little cash.
So; I've heard some really bad stuff about the PC version of Double Agent, (I did play the demo and wasn't impressed), however there is a digital download of it from Amazon for under 6 bucks.

Worth it? And has anyone used Amazon before for digital downloads?

Thanks.

I got it for $5 from Steam, never messed with Amazon, and it was worth it. I still like the last-gen ver. better, but like I said, it was worth playing.

Mr.Duck on 1/3/2011 at 19:19

I have Chaos Theory and Double Agent for Steam (I kept the 360 version also since it's different from the PC, which in turn is the original Xbox version, and yes, superior).

Anyone up for some co-op?

:)

I may get Conviction after a substancial price drop hits it.
