"A superb sim which debuted some 10 years ago, and is still being improved year after year. Amazing attention to detail. The most man hours i've applied to one game. Kiss your life goodbye."
"Amazing. An epic. The most atmospheric console game ever. The game that familiarised me with the initially awkward XBox pad. A year on it still outsells its rivals substantially."
"If Amazon sold the Jap version (y would they?) this would be a spot or two higher. Slghtly restrictive, and lack of licensing, but still the most meticulously detailed footie game ever."
"4 me, this was a better game than its sequel regardless of better auto aiming, better soundtrack, larger landscapes and more varied missions, purely because of superior level design."
"3D free roaming action at its (2nd) best. If you believe in bigger is better then the sequel to one of videogames most defining moments (genre merging) is right up ur alley."
"Although not offering the same immersive feeling that Kojima's Meal Gear offers, Splinter Cell gives u real stealth. Shadows to be hid in, gadgets to be utilised, locks to be picked. Fantastic."
"Although not as much fun as its predessesor, CM3 is still the only game that will leave u a nrvous sweating wreck after play. More sim like gameplay from the masters of racing sims, Codemasters."
"If an award was given to trend setters, MGS creater Hideo Kojima would win every time. The concept of stealth, little graphical touches, witty (but overly long) script, and a damn good game tacked on."
