Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent (Wii)

The Splinter Cell series has always been a good one, with an exciting storyline, an fun premise and good gameplay to boot. Sadly, this Wii incarnation of the game series is one to avoid. It's certainly not the worst game in the world, and fun can be had while playing it, but for the most part it's not worth the money. If you can get it on another platform, do. The story and premise is interesting, you play Sam Fisher, an agent for the NSA. After a series of events you end up in prison, trying to infiltrate a group of terrorists. Throughout the game, you are given certin choices as to whether you play for the home or away team, and your choice ...  Read the complete review

After reading many online and magazine reviews for this game saying that it isn’t as good as other Splinter Cell games; I just had to express my opinion and send out the message that this game isn’t all that bad. Some of you may know that I review computer games and electronic gadgets for a local newspaper, however this was no what lead me to purchase Splinter Cell: Double Agent for the Nintendo Wii. I actually bought it because I have played Splinter Cell games in the past and read the some of the novels by Tom Clancy. For those of you who don’t know, Splinter Cell started in 2002 and told the story of a specially trained operative of the National ...  Read the complete review

This game immediately strikes you as you start to play. It's fun with lots of special new fighting moves and ways of sneaking past the guards. The speciality of having to choose which missions you are going to do so the enemy thinks you are fighting with them yet keep your own boss sure that your true to him. You play Sam Fisher who is now getting quite old yet still has a great knowledge of being a spy. You play in third person and the graphics are very good. They are not as good as Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 but if you do not have a HD television there is not a great difference. The controls on Wii are hard to grasp, this makes it difficult when playing multi-player ...  Read the complete review

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent, is a really good stealth game for the wii. Like all of the splinter cells you play Sam Fisher. Misions range from a shootout on a cruise ship to saving thousands of people from bombs. You work for the NSA and the JBA in double agent, hence "Double Agent". You have to keep both Agencies happy and this becomes increasingly difficult as the game progresses. Throughout the game you get choices that will affect which Agency likes you better. And bonus weaponary and gear can be given to you by the team that like you the most. This is all very well but the wii version of the game ( i have played the xbox 360 version) is much ...  Read the complete review

I haven't played any of the splinter cell series before though i had seen a friend play it on his PS2 and thought it looked pretty good. Then i saw the tv advert for splinter cell:double agent on the wii and had to get it. The controls on the wii are really good though they take a while to master, the gameplay is smooth and fluid and the graphics are ace. I love that you have the choice to do objectives for the terrorists or the NSA. Throughout the levels you have to make critical choices which make you feel like you are actually in the game as some of them really affect you and decide the outcome of the game. I don't know if die hard ...  Read the complete review
