Product Description

Platform: PlayStation2

Amazon.com Product Description

2006: The U.S. installs a temporary military base on East Timor to train the developing defense force of the "world's youngest democracy." Resistance to the U.S. military presence in Southeast Asia is widespread and passionate, but the threat Indonesian militias pose to Timorese democracy is deemed sufficient justification. Anti-U.S. resentment comes to a head under the leadership of guerrilla militia leader Suhadi Sadono, acting with the unofficial support of major corrupt factions of the Indonesian government. Suhadi's men attack and occupy the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta, taking dozens of civilian and military personnel hostage.

Deployed by a top secret wing of the NSA (National Security Agency) known as Third Echelon, Sam Fisher is a lone field operative supported by a remote team. Fisher must defend and assist the U.S. military, both locally and from remote locations, until Suhadi's terror-driven policies can be subverted and the guerrilla faction eradicated. Charged with saving the world, it’s a high stakes game. If he fails, the U.S. will deny any knowledge of his existence.

An experience so compelling you feel it.

• Believe the story. Inspired by the world of Tom Clancy, and endorsed by the famous author, and written by JT Petty, who penned the original Splinter Cell, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow features a storyline so real you can feel it. Tension filled stealth-action springs from a compelling original storyline so realistic it could have been ripped from the headlines.
• Understand the characters. In this sequel to the original game, favorite characters like Sam Fisher and Irving Lambert return and unveil even more about their personal histories in the more character-driven storyline. New antagonists appear, including Suhadi Sodano an Indonesian guerilla leader whose beliefs are sound, but whose methods are barbaric. And then there is Norman Soth: CIA-trained mercenary deep under cover or traitor working for the enemy? Whose side is he really on?
• Immerse yourself.Revolutionary lighting, shadowing, animation, physics, and sound effects pushed to the limit to create a universe so tightly woven that the line between reality and gaming starts to blur. "High res" cinematics, amazing sound design and music as well as top quality voice over give SCPT as unique movie production quality. Voice actors, music composers and cinematic directors to be announced in the coming months.
• You’ve got the moves. Now more than ever, Sam relies on his moves. In this sequel to the original Splinter Cell, circumstances demand that Sam use his agility and athleticism to avoid detection and death. In fact the level design demands them. Use a half split jump to reach a ledge, zip line across an open courtyard, rappel along the side of a building, SWAT-turn to bypass an open door unseen.
• You’ve got the gear. Based on prototypes currently in development, or gadgets out on the field, Sam Fisher has a menu of high tech gadgets and tools from which to choose.

Revolutionary multiplayer stealth action gameplay online for the first time.

• Take Splinter Cell online. Taking place in a graphically-rich environment we expect from Splinter Cell, the multiplayer gameplay is a natural extension of the Splinter Cell world. Just as in Splinter Cell, players will call on a wide variety of gadgets, weapons and athletic moves to best their opponents. The light and shadow-filled environment offers dark retreats for stealth gamers and wide open spaces that spell danger for spies. The multiplayer game is integrated into the compelling offline story, though both offline and online gameplay can be enjoyed independently of one another.
• Choose a side. Taunt your enemies from the shadows as you meet stealth objectives playing through wide multiplayer maps in third-person view as a Shadow Net Spy. Or track spies using a first-person perspective as a heavy armed Argus Mercenary protecting your compound. The abilities and resources on each side are evenly matched. Winning will come down to skill and strategy.
• Feel the tension. Just as in the original game, online players will feel the tension that comes from never knowing what might happen next. Shadow Net spies hold their breath as mercenaries pass by close enough to touch them. They hide in the dark and wait for the right moment to spring into action. They work in concert—one can distract the mercenaries, while the other(s) meets the objective. Mercenaries never know when a Shadow Net spy might silently drop down from the shadows to attack, or slip by detection efforts to complete a mission. By relying heavily on their detection devices they feel like they can stop the threat—at least for now. Are spies stealing your secrets while they toy with you?
  It’s important to note that the maximum number of players on a multiplayer map is four. Too many people in a map would create chaos and result in shooter gameplay. But this is Splinter Cell. It’s a stealth action game not a shooter. This game tests your stealth and your strategy, your readiness and your resourcefulness. Are you ready?
• Feel the game. The multiplayer maps feature the revolutionary lighting, shadowing, animation, physics, and sound effects that have become the Splinter Cell trademark. Graphical effects push that even further. Electronic interference can disrupt the vision and tools of the mercenaries. Spies must avoid the searching flash lights and laser pointers. Flash bang, shaft and gas grenades are also powerful visual effects that players will have to deal with. Thanks to their advanced goggles, Shadow Nets can see in the dark and read thermo signatures in their environment while mercenaries detect movements and electro-magnetic disturbance in their surroundings…and much more to discover.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is Exactly what a sequel should be!, June 29, 2004

By	Matt Mabry (Dexter) - See all my reviews

WOW! This is SUCH an improvement on the last one. The graphics are so much better and it's just more fun to be sniping people from a jungle bush than to be split jumping and shooting out a bunch of lights.

Alright there is still no feeling in the world like having a guy 3 feet in front of you, and practically breathing in your face, and he can't see you. it's really fun, but nerve-wracking.

This game's missions take you all over the world, from a speeding train in France, to Israel to a remote Jungle. It really gives the game a sense of reality and it's fun to experience the different places.

Ubisoft has really made a Gem here, and it seems like they really listen to their customers, becasue they have added the SWAT turn, the half split jump and Hand shooting. It just adds another sense of reality to your game to be hanging upsidedown and shooting enemies, or split jumping 3 feet above an enemy and then fly down to knock them out.

In this game, there is a lot of enfasis on using Non-Lethal force, as in knocking them out or hitting your enemies with "Sticky-Shockers" (One of the many cool gadgets you can use with the SC-20K (Sam's new primary Sniper/Assault weapon). This adds a real sense of reality to your game and sets it apart from other games such as 007. And it's all hands on, so you have to sneek up behind someone and then grab them and take them into the shadows and knok them out. If you're not foaming at the mouth over this game by now, it's not for you.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention, there is an Online mode on this game, it's sort of like a deadly game of capture the flag, in the dark and with sticky shockers and machine guns. Alright, you play as either the ShadowNet or the Argus team. The Argus are like Terminators, with motion sensing goggles and heavy machine guns. And the Shadownet are like the Sam Fishers of Online, they have to sneek in and take all of the ND133's (Biochemical Agents) without the Argus knowing. It's so much fun on both sides and it's a real nail biter with the ShadowNet teams.

Alright here's a review:

Graphics: 15/10 the Water effects and the shrubs moving behind you, make it very realistic.

Gameplay: 20/10 HUGE improvement on the last game, TONS of cool moves, and the Swat Turn and Half split jump give it an extra kick.

Fun: 20/10 there is STILL nothing like hiding inches from an unsuspecting gaurd, and the ONLINE gives the game so Much.

Difficulty: 10/10 the only thing average about this game, it's not really that hard, but it can be at times. Like when you're in a reoom with 3 SWAT men in there and you have to sneek past them...it's really cool.

Overall: 65/40 this game is so much fun, it's worth buying.

You MUST at least try this game out, it's tons of fun, and worth the money. This is the Epitomy of all Sequels to any game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sam Fishers' pandora tomorrow, July 21, 2005

By	Dennis D. (Oregon, United States) - See all my reviews

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

S.C. Pan. Tom. finally came to the PS2! Worth the wait when you consider the exclusive extras not found in the xbox & pc versions... including alternate pathways in some stages, ability to disable booby traps, post mission stats scoring screen, an all-new jungle mission, and listening to in-mission situation reports(via the USB headset, not included). I was able to buy the game on sale for just 11$ new from a local retailer. Don't worry, the beautiful graphics hold their own vs. the xbox version. Highly rated/Highly recommended. A must have for PS2 stealth-action fans. 1-4 players, rated teen for blood/violence/drug references, an "online" ready game. Nice job ubisoft and thanks for the extras!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pandora Tomorrow, May 3, 2005

By	Brian - See all my reviews

This game is a really really good game. It has awesome graphics, the controls are great once you get used to them. The only thing is that it is really dark, but then it has to be. I thought it was really easy but it had some hard parts to it especially the last level. Probably the best game I have ever gotten, worth the money.
