Ubisoft need to fix this shit, because it's awful. The third, it merrily began work on version 1.2. The second time, it did the same sorting out version 1.1. I've been playing on uPlay and it's a monster the first time I booted it up, Blacklist spent fifteen minutes downloading and then around the same installing some release fixes. Blacklist's scenario is yer average 24-aping Man Saves America setup – so something about snapping all those foreign necks while glowing like a fairy tree just tickles me pink.īlacklist needs one rather obvious housekeeping notice: if you're at all tempted by this, get it on Steam. You know Sam Fisher's little goggle lights? You can make those pink. Splinter Cell: Blacklist is a game that wants to be described as 'badass', but fortunately it also comes with some excellent customisation options.


No you didn't misread that, so hit the jump and find out why. It's not merely an exemplary slice of, forgive the oxymoron, action-stealth – but also contains the best Aliens game in years. But Blacklist is far more than a production-line piece of gristle. There are so many of the buggers, the most recent being the borderline-psychotic Conviction, that only the die-hard keep track, and to everyone else it's one amorphous blob of banjo-legged throat-slitting. Splinter Cell is one of those series that suffers through repetition.
