Blacklist made a poor first impression with an E3 trailer that seemed to show that the action aspects of the beloved stealth series had been extended far beyond those in the already- energetic Conviction. Has Ubisofts endless search for a wider audience compromised the franchises roots? Matt Maguire puts goggles over glasses to take a look.

Rob from NAGF writes "Sam Fisher has moved away from his arthritic self and looks like hes been downing vitality yoghurts by the 8-pack. He glides through Libya, Marawa, Dallas and many more worldwide locations, with as much finesse as Ezio from Assassins Creed."

So here is the situation you find yourself in. Sam is crouched behind cover observing three unsuspecting enemies having a conversation. Do you, A- whistle to get the attention of one of the guards, luring him to your location to meet his untimely demise when you take him down from within cover, to which you then mark the remaining two foes spring from cover and execute them both with two precisely placed bullets to their temples. Or do you, B- Burst out of cover with an assault rifle or shotgun and gun all three of them down. Or do you, C- Completely bypass all three enemies by finding an alternate path and vanish like the ghost you are. The freedom and choices available to the player is what makes this latest installment into the Splinter Cell franchise so great. Sam Fisher is back, with a new voice, to stop a terrorist threat known as the Blacklist by becoming the leader of the newly formed Fourth Echelon.

gamrReview's Jake Weston: "All in all, Splinter Cell: Blacklist should be commended for simultaneously trying to return to the series roots while keeping it relevant for modern audiences. However, its desire to portray complex issues whilst skirting around them makes it more open to criticism than other modern war games."

Ian Fisher writes: Its not necessarily a surprise to see a familiar actor appear in a game, or at the very least hear their voice, though it does often mean one thing: a quality performance. Such a thing certainly rings true of veteran actor Carlo Rota. After appearing in films such as The Boondock Saints and the hit TV show 24, in which he played CTU analyst Morris O'Brian, Carlo has made the leap to video games with Splinter Cell: Blacklist. Channeling his inner baddie, Carlo portrays the mysterious leader of the terrorist organization known as The Engineers. Causing some considerable grief for the legendary Sam Fisher (played by Eric Johnson), Carlo delivers a nuanced performance in Blacklist that is immediately memorable.

My initial thoughts on Splinter Cell: Blacklist. Haven't had time to beat it yet but I am enjoying it so far.

From the moment the disc was sucked into our PS3 console, Splinter Cell: Blacklist did its damnedest to keep us equally enshrouded in the on-screen action. But far from the promise of a stealth title, Blacklist intros with the rip-roar of guns blazing in a US Army base shakedown at the hands of a terrorist group known as The Engineers. But this is the US of A - land of the free - and it doesn't negotiate with terrorists. Instead it sets Fourth Echelon, a top-secret special ops team, into motion to keep the threat at bay.
