    We live in the weirdest timelines.
    Sonic revitalised video game adaptions.
    But splinter cell, arguably one of the easiest things to adapt (style wise) gets merced.

      I have a feeling it’s because zany animated movies are an easier sell to kids.

        i mean im a smoothbrain but, i think splinter cell would probably be equally cheap to make since you have so much less cgi youd need

      Apparently the announcement was made in stealth mode.

      I bet it’s a major reason why they decided to drop it.

      Unless they’d pair it with a new game. Wasn’t the last one over 10 years ago?

      Doubtful. But that could let it be an r rated or high pg13 option.

      All I want is a final proper send-off Splinter Cell before he dies. Sam Fisher’s final job type vibe. I think there is some cool potential there - not that I trust Ubisoft to pull it off, mind.

      And not including Sam Fisher would also be weird.

          I never read any of the books, I kind of fell off of Clancy quite a while ago. Worth reading?

            I only read the first one so far. It’s alright but they’re not written by Clancy sadly.
