I've been playing Splinter Cell: Blacklist all weekend (and our review will be up some time tomorrow to coincide with the game's release) but one thing I thought would have bothered me hasn't had any real effect. Blacklist is the first Splinter Cell game to release without the vocal stylings of Michael Ironside in the lead role, but it turns out you don't need the gravely-voiced actor to make an excellent Splinter Cell game. In fact, I'd say Sam Fisher's loss is the player's gain in the philosophy behind ditching Ironside. Speaking of the change prior to release, Creative Director Maxime BeĂłland told reporters that Ironside was dismissed because of the arduous process it took to completely design Sam Fisher. Ubisoft had to record Ironside's voice, then capture a physical actor who could pull off all of Fisher's stealthy and acrobatic moves, and then go one step beyond to capture another actor's facial performance in delivering each line. To do away with all this, Ubisoft decided to go with Eric Johnson, a singular actor who could do everything the studio needed to build Sam Fisher as an interactive character. The difference between Blacklist and the last Splinter Cell game, Conviction, is palpable. Yes, the voice isn't the same, but I'll trade this one series staple for the dogged attention to gameplay on hand in Ubisoft's latest. While it might sound like Ironside became an unfortunate casualty over the course of development, the rest of Blacklist benefits from returning Sam Fisher to his roots as a globe-trotting super spy. Instead of chasing and interrogating leads himself, Sam and company launch missions from their mobile headquarters. Players are dropped into an open level with branching pathways, intelligent guards, and tons of options at their disposal. Conviction felt more constrained and therefore less focused on player agency, but Blacklist feels totally focused on presenting players with the tools they need and just enough challenge to keep every moment tense and dangerous.

GR: "By trimming the fat, Ubisoft takes Splinter Cell back to its roots in sandbox stealth play and globe-trotting espionage."
