Looks pretty good. I enjoy stealth games but the only one I've really enjoyed in years was Hitman: Absolution. This game looks very similar in ways so I think I'll pick it up at some point.

why are people going on about it looking better than the X360/PS3 version, the WiiU is supposed to be competing with the X1 & PS4 !!!!!

do the gamepad features really offer that much though, i had this on order for my WiiU but had heard the game was not really shaping up to well, so i cancelled, the WiIU version will be more expensive from what i have seen also.

seeing this video has not really changed my mind.

Your whole post doesn't make sense imo...

 

-Splinter Cell isn't getting released on the X1/PS4. So don't expect much improvement from the Wii U version (except lighting etc).

-Yes, the gamepad features in general are better compared to other consoles (well atleast in my opinion).

-The price is just the same for both versions

-Wii U runs just fine like the other versions (except cutscenes, where it's "bad" on all versions).

Looks awesome! Hopefully the Wii U version does well...

And hopefully Ubisoft lets you replace the gyro controls with regular analog stick controls for people who like them

Absolutely spot on. To me, games like this really show how the Wii U can enhance a game. Not the end of the world to play on 360, but just easier and more accessible on Wii U. The same thing I thought about Batman for Wii U.

I'm excited that they are advertising for the Wii U. This also looks really good.

I had my mine preordered for a while now and this video reassures me that I made the right decision.

[Julio93]

They REEEEEEAAAAAALLLLLYYYY Want this version to sell, the pre order numbers are very low.

[Cozmo]

Going to get this on my wiiu. Don't knonwen but some day lol

Looking forward to the graphics/performance comparisons that will surely surface. So far it's good to know that the Wii U version is the only one to have zero screen tear unlike PS360.

 

I hated the screen tear in previous Splinter Cell games dating right back to the original Xbox game. Possibly the worst screen tear I have ever seen.

All Ubisoft games have been awful for it, so it's good to see Wii U manages to rid the game of it.

This might make me sound like a n00b, but what exactly is screen tearing?

[EvilMoogle]

IGN gave it a 9.2, and I make it a habit to buy pretty much any games that receive a 9 or above.

This

Basically when the frame shifts in some areas or "tear".

It usually happens for a split second than disappears, it's pretty common if the game hasn't been properly optimised.

 

Anyway the gameplay looks gorgeous, sure it's not much better from the 360 versions but the devs can't make too much of a gap so 360/PS3 owners don't feel ripped off. Those cutscenes definitely could use some improvement but as others have stated, it's not a WiiU exclusive issue, or though there will still be fanboys that will use this to take a stab at the power of the WiiU.

[syks-1]

looks interesting and quite good features on the wiiu,not bad

[GAMER1984]

all in all the gameplay will be king and why i will play it

[DéliopT]

I liked this game more now with this vídeo.

To be honest, don`t think it will sell a lot.
