Splintercell Pandora Tomorrow initial reactions

ok...  I just got this game..... and .... here are my intitial opinions... since I have not passed the 1st stage.

So far, I think the graphics on #1 are better... but the reviewers say its better on SCA... so I'll give that more time.
The graphics just don't look as high res as before... and I know the Gamecube is capable of better.  The Xbox one has the same graphics rating... and I have heard that both are identical down the line... except for a few non-graphical items such as the FMV. 
IE IGN give SplinterCell 8.0 and 9.0 on splintercell: Pandora Tomorrow for graphics (Gamecube).  I just don't see the improvement yet.

The animations are choppier....  as is the framerate (slightly).  BUt I heard all versions suffered from slower frame rates this time around.

The gameplay is faster
... but I still think I like the 1st one better.  The directors speak too much in this one......


I also like the voice acting in the the original Splintercell better.
The sounds in Splintercellandora Tomorrow are awesome. There is a definite improvement there.


we'll see how this turns out... it is still a cool game to play
My expectations could be too high though.

and I miss the "Palm" menu graphics.  The menu graphics of SCA are rather...cheesy.

I wonder if this game was rushed out too fast... or what.  Oh yeah.... the Gamecube version was docked points for not having a multiplayer option  :

anyone else care to comment?

Oh god... do I really need to say it again? Short Ver: This game blows.

Thank you for your time.

Fine, the multiplayer is good.

Sounds like not enough was changed from the original for me. Although I did like the original a lot.
