Ubisoft announces Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist

At Microsoft Conference today Ubisoft lifted the veil on the new Splinter Cell game, subtitled Blacklist. Still starring series hero Sam Fisher, now in charge of Fourth Echelon, the game looks pretty great. Lots of daytime stealth mechanics, tech, shootouts, and tons of brutal take downs.  This is the first game developed by Ubisoft Toronto, and features Sam taking on a group of terrorists targeting the United States. Sam is given a Presidential Mandate to take down the bad guys using whatever means necessary, and it looks like Sam hasn’t slowed down in his old age
