Got ya. Read the part about the USB not working missed the other. Wonder if they'll fix that? Saw the part about the game crashing as well. Hopefully the last update last night will keep it from doing that when I start playing eventually.

while im enjoying this game, i too miss the old splinter cell feel of the game. i hope in the future if we do get another splinter cell game it will be more like the ist game.

This fails to register.
Batman hates guns. The fast and furious gameplay of Conviction is totally not Batman's style.
A better comparison would've been The Punisher.
I was talking about the gameplay of Arkham Asylum, not their morales. Its still sort of got the stealth element, but for the most part you can just tear ass through guys with no worries.

Yeah that was their concept from 3-4 years ago. In 2007 (I believe) Ubisoft scrapped everything and started from scratch in the story.

Just played the first co-op mission!! 
Awesome...its so cool when you take out a room of 5 dudes with the Execute function without them even knowing what happened.

The campaign is definitely NOT only five hours long.
I'm playing on Realistic difficulty and have spent at least 10 hours on it already, and I still have to finish the reservoir mission and then the final two missions. And I haven't really died all that much. It takes a long time to get through certain parts especially if you opt for going full-out stealth.
I've never played the older Splinter Cell games, so I can't comment on how different it is. What I got from the demo was a heavy Arkham Asylum gameplay vibe, and that's what compelled me to pre-order Conviction. The combat system has its hiccups but runs smooth for the most part. In fact, there are zero loading times while in the missions.
The story is highly compelling and much more realistic than Modern Warfare 2. Never knew Michael Ironside voiced Sam Fisher, but what a great aspect to the game!
Only downside is that apparently achievements are buggy. The biggest glitch is that many players are finishing the game on Realistic but not getting the corresponding achievement. Ubisoft is working on the problem, but it's making me want to slow down on the last few missions until a patch becomes available.

Glad you liked it man. Ironside has been the voice of Fisher since the beginning. He's like an official celebrity just because of that...in his interviews he always talks about how people walk up to him asking if he's Sam Fisher once they hear his voice.
I can't wait to see the next Splinter Cell game. I think they can do many great things with it. I'm hoping that Third Echelon gets recommissioned with Fisher as the head (Lambert's old job) and Archer (agent from the co-op) as the new Splinter Cell lead...the conversations between them alone will make the game awesome. Fisher could constantly talk to Archer like he's a rookie the way Price and Soap did in Modern Warfare.
