Same can be said about SC though as well.

Well, I think that's a problem with the genre was a whole. After 10 years of the 3D stealth genre, with little innovation, I feel the genre as a whole has fallen rut. I mean, the gameplay is essentially the same in almost every game, and I think its about time for stealth games to be taken in a new direction, which is why I'm so excited about Splinter Cell: Conviction and Assassin's Creed. The whole "social stealth" thing may just be the change the genre needs.

They're too touchy or sometimes don't work at all and go all haywire.

I mean...Oh I'm so sorry god hines of splinter cell lore. Every Splinter Cell game is phenominal. There is absolutely nothing wrong with any of them..at all. For that would be a sin.

Honestly, calm down.

As do Metal Gear Solid...

Honestly, they both have some gameplay issues, but they seem, at least to me, to be more prominent in MGS.

and graphic-wise

metal gear got nothin
 
Re: Metal Geat Solid or Splinter Cell?

I actually think they're really close graphics wise. The thing that gives Splinter Cell the edge is the fact that it has a more realistic look, plus graphics don't mean much.
 
Re: Metal Geat Solid or Splinter Cell?

You only pick pictures that show Splinter's graphics...n pick the worst ones of Metal Gear.

I'll quote myself.

Metal Gear's running the more powerful graphics engine

If I have to clarify, Metal Gear 4's going to look better than Splinter Cell Conviction or whatever its called.

Re: Metal Geat Solid or Splinter Cell?

Why the hell are we having an argument about graphics? Who the hell cares about graphics, especially considering both games look phenomenal?
 
Re: Metal Geat Solid or Splinter Cell?

I sure wish there was a MEtal Gear fanboy here to balance this out. But I like Metal Gear better also. I actually got into that and I bought Chaos Theory and just couldnt get into it. Not my cup o tea

It's called an art style. MGS looks less realistic than SC because they are stylized, which MGS has always been. It's a fantasy setting with appropriate graphics, unlike Splinter Cell, which goes for the realistic approach.

They are just different styles.
 
Re: Metal Geat Solid or Splinter Cell?

anyway.....they are two different kinds of games, and idc what anyone says, mgs is horrible at being a stealth game. the controls are wonky, and its oddly difficult to use your gun.

they cannot be compared, splinter cell is realistic, mgs is not

its like comparing viewtiful joe and halo.

I'm glad mgs didn't go for the realistic approach. MGS is bad at being a stealth game in your opinion. Cool. :lol

It does have the lead in the polls though. :p
 
Re: Metal Geat Solid or Splinter Cell?

Honestly, you take everything way too seriously.

You say it's just a poll on an online forum, but whenever anyone has a different opinion than you on an ONLINE FORUM, you freak out.

And if you're looking at numbers, Gamerankings.com compiles user ratings, and ratings from every online source, and magazine source when factoring how great a game is.

Metal Gear Solid 2: 95%
All Time Game Ranking: 15

All Splinter Cells: 88% average
All Time Ranking: 72 average


I'd say the numbers speak for themselves when it comes to the general audience, but then again, to each his own preference.
