Okay let me go on record as saying I LOVE this game so far (about 50% thru) from the stellar graphics to the non linear deep story.Is it the best in the series, THAT is a matter of opinion.I will say however that it IS MY favorite Splinter Cell (SC) to date.And I have played and loved them all, even found joy in the PSP version.But one thing particular makes this one my fave and that is the Story.I will not spoil anything but it is truly engrossing.Now let me follow my normal review format.

Graphics - 5 out of 5 Ubisoft really decided to show true 360 power. OMG!The graphics in this game rank up there with the greats...(FN3,COD3, Oblivion, etc.) may be the best I am still trying to compare.So many details in Sam's wetsuit, backgrounds, and enemies!!!Let me put it like this, you sneak up on your prey, grab him and hold him to interrogate watch his eyes flutter while he spills the beans and then watch his eyes roll to the back of his head when you choke him out. Nuff Said!!!

Sound - 4.5 out of 5 Michael Ironside does the voice acting for Sam, do I really need to go on?The sounds and background music is exactly what you come to expect from the SC series.Turn off everything in the room and turn up the volume you will get sucked in.

Controls - 4 out of 5 Here is my one and only CON, the camera doesn't always like the way you want control Sam, you end up having to toy with the right analog stick a little too much in some situations to see what you want to see.But as far as everything else it flows smoothly and controls pretty much like the others in the series!

Gameplay - 5 out of 5 Okay this is where the game absolutely TAKES off!!!There is just something about sneaking out of the shadows, grabbing and choking your enemies then hiding the bodies, gets me amped!!!But we have already done that right with others in the series right?Well imagine hanging and lowering yourself on a winch Mission Impossible style to obtain access to a certain objective or catch an enemy off guard.Or how about popping out of icy waters grabbing an unsuspecting enemy and dragging him underwater with you to choke him out (without fully getting out of the water).Let me tell you ladies and gentlemen this is STEALTH done absolutely right!!Then on top of the stellar gameplay mechanics.You have options on how to use those gameplay mechanics.Meaning you are a double agent, if you kill your enemies recklessly, leave innocent people to die you get closer to becoming that evil which you are trying to fight against.On the other hand if you choose to save the innocent and take your enemies out sparing their lives, then you uphold that which you have stood for all your years as an NSA agent.Simply put: THIS GAME ROCKS!!Story - 5 out of 5I am only about halfway thru this masterpiece and I will not spoil any of what I have experienced thus far I will however tell you that this is so far one of the best story I have experienced in a game.Ending not rated yet...I will now say that I am a big Splinter Cell fan anyway so this review may come off somewhat Bias.I tried to be as unbiased as possible, but I honestly can not imagine anyone NOT liking this game once they get the hang out the controls and fortunately there are 2 training missions (practice) to help accomplish this. Also let me say that I play my XBOX360 on a 32" Samsung HD TV so when I rate the graphics that is all I have to go by, so I cannot honestly tell anyone how good the graphics look on a regular TV.I cant imagine they would be that much worst though.

Bottom Line:This game is one of the few (so far) for which you purchased an Xbox360...and it is NOT to be missed Trust me!! Let the Holiday Games begin!!!
