Ubisoft comes clean on Splinter Cell delay N4G
360 News from N4G | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
360 - Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Ubisoft comes clean on Splinter Cell delay CVG: Conviction pushed back to 2009-2010 fiscal year - "back to the drawing board"?

Don't say we didn't tell you; Ubisoft has officially delayed Splinter Cell: Conviction into its 2009-2010 fiscal year, after Xbox World 360 mag reported so back in May of this year.

The ambitious stealth instalment will now be released some time between April 2009 and March 2010. Previously it had a release date before Q1 2009.

A few months back Xbox World 360 magazine reported that the game had been taken "back to the drawing board" and pushed back into the festive period of 2009 - or as late as spring 2010. Nail on the head, then.

Splinter Cell Delayed N4G
360 News from N4G | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
360 - Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Splinter Cell Delayed When Ubisoft didn't show Splinter Cell: Conviction at its last event, people worried a little about how the game might be doing. Fear not - the game's doing great. So great, they say, that Ubisoft just decided it'd be better off releasing it as part of its "2009-2010" lineup instead of in this year's fiscal fourth quarter. You know, to "bolster" next year, as the company said in its fiscal first quarter results statement.

Signs at Ubidays seemed to suggest that the game was undergoing a reworking, though Ubisoft's reps were specifically vague on details. We also heard that a "way too egotistical" Michael Ironside would no longer be returning as the voice of Sam Fisher.

Kotaku: Ubisoft Specifically Vague On Splinter Cell: Conviction N4G
360 News from N4G | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
360 - Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Kotaku: Ubisoft Specifically Vague On Splinter Cell: Conviction Last week reports surfaced suggesting that Splinter Cell: Conviction, the latest chapter in Ubisoft's Sam Fisher saga, had gone back to the drwing board for a drastic reworking. Now that the company's Ubidays event has come and gone without even a thumbnail screenshot from the game, a representative is ready to give us specifics on how vague things are with Conviction.

In reference to speculative stories that have appeared recently, in January of 2008 we announced that the game would be released in the fiscal year of '08/'09. And at this point in time we are not ready to be more specific than that. We will begin to communicate more once we feel the time is right for us and our fans.

As the folks at CVG pointed out, last year's Ubidays event saw the game being played by developers, so the vague statements and lack of any assets definitely points towards a complete reworking, and those are never good.

Perhaps they just wanted to stuff it with extra awesome? Maybe? A little?

Conviction "Not Yet Perfect", Says Ubi  N4G
360 News from N4G | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
360 - Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Conviction Following Splinter Cell: Conviction's disappointing no-show during last night's Ubidays press conference, Ubisoft has moved to quell speculation by claiming the game simply needs more "polishing".

Speaking to Eurogamer in Paris earlier today, global development boss Christine Burgess-Overmard insisted: "The team is still working on it". Nevertheless, speculation on the status of the high-profile project has been mounting after a lengthy information blackout since its unveiling a year ago, further fuelled by a recent magazine report suggesting the game was undergoing a major overhaul.

"Splinter Cell is one of our major IPs, so we don't let them go out before they're perfect, and it's not yet perfect," Burgess-Overmard explained. "So the team is polishing it so we can have a great game to offer the consumers." However, when pressed on a timeframe for the next reveal, she refused to be drawn, adding: "Not yet. When it's ready."

An excited "Gee whiz!" likely rang through the halls of your house this morning when you stumbled upon Kombo's UbiDays coverage. "Shaun White, Beyond Good and Evil, Raving Rabbids, and Prince of Persia? This is the best day ever!"

But no, my dear reader, this most certainly is not the best day ever.

Ubisoft on Splinter Cell Conviction delay: If it's not from an official source, it's a "punt" N4G
360 News from N4G | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
360 - Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Ubisoft on Splinter Cell Conviction delay: If it's not from an official source, it's a VG247: Ubisoft has said this morning that an Xbox World 360 story claiming Splinter Cell Conviction is "on hold" isn't answerable unless it's come from an official source. Which it hasn't.

"If they've got a Ubisoft source then there's something to be answered there, but if it's just them commenting on something that they've heard, then it's hard for us to make a statement on something that someone's just taken a punt on," said a UK PR rep for the firm.

Rumour: Splinter Cell Conviction Going "Back to the Drawing Board"  N4G
360 News from N4G | Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction
360 - Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction - Rumour: Splinter Cell Conviction Going Metal Gear Solid 4? Big deal, right?
