Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent (Review)

Oct 18, 2006

But we're professionals, so when the boss asked us to play Splinter Cell Double Agent, we begrudgingly agreed. After all, we were starting to get used to being a tool of the Man (just kidding). When we fired up Double Agent, however, it didn't take very long for this gem to surprise ...

Splinter Cell shares the spotlight with Metal Gear Solid as the other major force in stealth-action gaming - and the more realistic one of the two. It's also maturing as a franchise.
