5.0 out of 5 stars Great Game, but don't be fooled....., May 1, 2003

This is a one of the few games that can be made for xbox, gamecube, PS2, and PC, and is still awesome on GBA! The grapics aren't as good, but I really can't blame Ubi for that. On all of the other versions of Splinter Cell, the graphics are 3-D. This game would be hard to play with 3-D graphics for GBA. The missions are slightly different from what I have been told.

If you are a person who gats a game and expects to be good at it the first time you play it, this is NOT the game for you!

Splinter Cell takes alot of time to learn. The entire game is about being able to be stealthy. You don't want to use up all of your amunition. That is why there are dark spots you can hide in to jump out and use your fighting skills to knock your enemy out.

Pros

1.Same basic objective to the game.
2.Lots of fun to sneek around and knock out people.
3.Lots of cool moves that you can use on Sam Fisher.

Cons

1.Can't get all of the old weapons
2.Very difficult!
3.Frustrating to have to play the missions all over again if you lose!

The A.I. in this game is pretty good.
The problem with it is, your enemy can react to you to fast for you do do something. If you are move to fast you get detected, if you move to slow you get detected.
One of the most frustrating things of this game is the fact that if you get deteced, the enemy will, A. Shoot, or Stun you. B. Will flip the alams and you you have about 6 sec. to find the switch before the mission is over.

All in all, I found this game to be challenging but rewarding if you win.

Okay, you are not going to get the same game as on the Xbox, PS2, or Game Cube, but in and of itself, this is a great GBA game. And there ARE stealth aspects to the game, but game play is much simpler than on the consoles. Graphics are super detailed.
