Item Description

When Splinter Cell launched on the Xbox in late 2002, it showed off Microsoft's console like few games could. Ubisoft Montreal built an entire game around light and shadow, and the Xbox rendered them with a realism that turned darkness into your most important weapon: a sliver of light spilling through a doorway, a lamp you could shoot out, a hallway of guards who simply could not see you if you stayed out of the light.

You play Sam Fisher, a veteran operative for Third Echelon, the NSA's secret black-ops division, sent in when the disappearance of two CIA agents in Georgia spirals toward a global crisis. Where most action games rewarded charging in, Splinter Cell rewards patience and silence: an on-screen light meter tells you how visible you are, and too many alarms can mean mission failure. Fisher's tools became instant classics, from his trifocal night-vision and thermal goggles to the sticky cameras and ring airfoil rounds fired from his SC-20K, the optic cable for peeking under doors, and athletic moves like the split jump between narrow walls. Missions take him from Georgia to the CIA's own headquarters and a Chinese embassy, each a puzzle of patrols, cameras and shadows.

The supporting cast gives the missions their texture. Irving Lambert's briefings and Anna Grimsdottir's tech support keep you connected to Third Echelon, while Michael Ironside's dry, gravelly delivery made Fisher a stealth hero unlike Solid Snake: older, wearier and grounded in Tom Clancy's world of near-future espionage. Michael Richard Plowman's tense score keeps the atmosphere taut as patrols close in.

Splinter Cell went on to become one of Ubisoft's biggest franchises, leading to Pandora Tomorrow, Chaos Theory and beyond, and many fans consider the Xbox version the definitive console take on the first game because it was built around the hardware's lighting from the start. This is where Sam Fisher's story begins, and the purest form of the series' slow-burn, shadow-first stealth.
