This one is self explanatory. This is what you, Sam Fisher, are: A Splinter Cell (a spy).
Characters 10/10 The protagonist (Sam Fisher), the dude giving you advice (Lambert), and the tech' lady (Grimsdottir), were all well-rounded.
Story-line 10/10 Excellent. Very complex, detailed, and quite realistic. You'd almost believe it was based on a real-life account if you didn't know any better.
Action 10/10 Keeps you on your edge like in an action movie
Graphics/Music 10/10 Yep, perfecto mundo.
Miscellaneous 9/10 Lack of drama. They just suck at making something dramatic (-1). You'll know what I mean when you see the ending.
Overall= 49/50 (98%) Very highly recommended! Splinter Cell serves as excellent competition for the other espionage games out there. Metal Gear Solid--Watch out!

Additional Comments: I also think that an action/adventure game like this one could've used a bit of blood and gore to spice it up, but I guess they wanted to play it safe (y'know with all those parents out there that are blaming bloody games for their children being murderous assholes) and decided not to (no points deducted).
