hey Jon?... yeah Sara?...
what game are we playing?
we are playing Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory for the original XBOX
uh... this is...
one of my favourite games ever
it's uh...
it's one of the best original XBOX games and if you haven't tried it
and you're familiar with tactical shooters
and 3rd-person stuff, you should definitely give it a shot
it takes a while to get into but it's really rewarding once you get used to
you know... having to stay in the shadows and keep quiet, that kind of thing
(should i) play it on normal? is that cool?
or will i look like a wuss?
uhhh... you kinda look like a wuss but i can understand...
ok well, tell you what
i will rip this one on Expert
i can't guarantee i'll get 100%, although i have...
i've gotten 100% on this level, on Expert
but that's the only level at all, in the whole game
but uh...
yeah... do you play this a lot?
oh *** yeah... oh my god...
back in the day
uh... at least
i don't even want to guess...
like, a couple hundred hours...
online? probably...
couple hundred hours as well
so... we have to wait for this crap
which is awesome, and if you notice, apparently it's June 18th, 2007
and i remember that being in the future, i was like
"whoa, that's like 2 years from now"
and now it's like 2013
and the scenario presented in this game actually is
like a real-world sort of
it's a real-world sort of situation
meaning that like
this is something that could very easily
pop up in the headlines tomorrow and be believable... it's like a Korean missile crisis... cool story bro
what?... i'm waiting to pick my loadout... what is this?
look at that render, look at that. that's hot. isn't that awesome? love it.
ahh... TV's gonna break... no it's not...
alright, skip this
uh... i'm just gonna be shanking fools so...
i'm gonna go for Assault
and this is gonna be... epic... we'll see
yeah we will see
let's see if i remember how to play this thing
'cause this came out in...
2005
so that was like what, 8 years ago?
and funny thing is you look at it and
for something that's 8 years old
this looks pretty good... yeah, looks alright
... looks alright...
i remember getting the demo for this game and i *** myself
i was like *bewildered*
this isn't a 360 game? really?
***' Michael Ironside
the only person who should ever voice Fisher, ever... ever-ever...
he could be 80, and sound like he's 80,
portraying a character that's like,
40 or 50 and it would still be entertaining
cool
uh... anyway... i'm gonna take this light out 'cause i'm smart... see that? smart.
uh oh
did he spot you? oh yeah, i'm just gonna kill everyone
*** it i'll knife him
he uhh... he kicked my ***
i have to run into like, zero people
'til the end of the mission now
or at least until i find some ***' health
see that's another cool thing i love about this game
it's the first game that
you know you could go ahead and do that, that i can recall
where you can minimize your exposure
i had, umm...
Splinter Cell on... i can't remember if it was the DS?
yeah, it was the DS... was it?... yeah
i had it on that... i don't think i ever really played it though, i played Zelda a lot
ahh, Zelda's the ***, which one? oh i dunno, the DS one
the DS one? yep.
oh, and i like this too, you can like, open the door, like...
yeah... there's my health
it's a little arcadey
there's a double-shot
i've played this thing a million times so...
i'm gonna play it safe
gonna hide up here
you may think to yourself, "well, you're not really hiding 'cause you're standing on top of a *** crate"... but...
the NPC won't see me, he'll realize that the light's like, you know
been shot out... and he'll be like "oh *** i've gotta check that out"
and when he goes to check it out
you wait until he goes and then you
*sssk*
how long does that take? you have to wait for the
scripted event here
but there again i mean, i'm approaching this a specific way
this level is pretty linear, most of them are, but...
within the linearity there's
opportunities to go ahead and use
different approaches and you know,
utilize branching paths, and all sorts of other cool ***... like this
I GOTCHA!
you gonna break his hand?
nope
i'm not sure exactly what he's doing with the guy's hand
i think it's like, pressure application, something like that
anyways, you interrogate them to gain backstory, information...
yeah
kneed him in the spine
um... killed him, i guess...
so...
kill that, stay nice and quiet...
second bar on the bottom, that's your sound bar... just gonna cap him in the ***' head
oh *** i failed... oh god... oh god, that light's gonna come back on...
AWW i was trying to ***' knife him... aww...
MIND you
this is the first time i've played this in... aw god...
in so ***' long
ok i'll just do like, a run
alright i'm just gonna do a straight run here... no frills
no frills
no frills... yep
but yeah,
i like the whole series (SC)
i mean, i played the first one
that was actually one of the first games i bought when i got my original XBOX
i pretty much bought the XBOX for like, 2 different franchises
and that was uhh... Splinter Cell...
uh... that was because my PC was not nearly spec'd enough at the time for it
and uh... DOOM 3
same thing there
and as soon as i heard that uh...
ID was working with umm
microsoft for DOOM 3 i was just like "yeah, *** yeah"
"i'm gettin' an XBOX so i can play that"
instead of spending a million bucks on a ***'...
crazy, spec'd out PC
dc picture right about that works
let's do this
alright, here we go
we're gonna ***' just, bust right in... what do we got? flashbang
all right
uh... flashbang and ***'... *ssk* *ssk*, alright... LET'S GO!
oh... got him.
there's one... and two.
there we go
and there's a dude whom i have the option of cutting down
y'know, so he's not hanging there... no no, it's more of a morality thing... no morality for you!
no, i'm on a run, a run. i just flashbanged the mahfucker like "bam"
and he was all like "uhhhh, wha happen?"
there, see?
look at this.
it's like, you can cut ***
and then you can see through it
so it's like
there's another guy over there
and he's like going on his patrol and he was gonna come over here and talk to buddy, buddy's not there
so he be like "buddy WTF, where'd you go?"
YOU DEAD!... alright... another flashbang
no... nope, wait...
yes, pistol. right in my crosshairs
*** you
you're done... there's another guy... he's...
no, there is no other guy
don't wanna wait for the animation for that, so i'm just gonna run
yeah, you can pick up the bodies and hide them too
yeah, in this uh... not sure if it was in Pandora Tomorrow too
in this one there's just like
ragdoll physics
and uh...
they make life so much better
so i grabbed him and i'm like "hmm..."
there's that other guy, and he's gonna wonder where his buddy went
so now i have to kill him
just get closer to him
actually i should kill this guy
and ***' launch him into that guy
playing on Expert, so i don't wanna chance it
you're dead and... you're dead too. alright. moving on.
now there's crazy lights and stuff
everyone can hear me but i don't care
well i care right here, because i know
there's a guy
sitting in this chair, right here
i'm gonna give him... umm... what am i gonna do to him?
ah ***, it didn't let me
and then they *** killed me!
i thought i could just like, slash him and he'd be dead
this is BULLOCKS! bullocks... ahh god...
alright well i think that's good
anyway, i love Splinter Cell and uhh... yeah.
i just wanted to include that as one of the first videos
as one of my favorites, and i'm sure we'll get into my...
least-favoured games soon enough
and what about you Sara, what do you think?
What do you think of Splinter Cell? i dunno, i'd probably have to play it... just to watch it is a bit boring, to be honest with you.
oh.
well there's a lot of tension, you have to play it though to feel the tension
OOH, and
as far as your pick
for the next video, what were you thinking of doing?
i dunno
i think that i want a game that i haven't played
'cause i want to have that whole
fresh eyes on the game
i don't want it to be something i've played 1000 times over
like, with Uncharted 3 for example, because i played the whole way through the campaign i don't wanna replay that
i want something kind of, brand-newy... so i kinda, i'll look into it
alright well uh, we should have something completely random
next time
but uh...
yeah, hope you enjoyed that uh... thanks for watching! :)
