12 gameplay hours may seem to be short by today's standards, but Splinter Cell: Conviction creative director Maxime Beland believes that it is just about right.
"I want people to play my games and finish them," Beland told the Official Xbox Magazine.
"We're going to ship with difficulty levels, at least a normal mode and realistic mode - like we did on Rainbow Six Vegas. And realistic is going to be really f**king hard - you're going to need stealth, two bullets is going to kill you, the enemies are going to be super-lethal."
Normal mode, however, will be "for normal gamers, that are going to spend 12 hours playing our game and not 30 because they're dying all the time."
Splinter Cell: Conviction will also feature a solid multiplayer mode, so don't worry about getting your money's worth of gameplay time.

12 hours is not long enough. I will just rent it.

What ever happened to the good old days when you could buy a game like Ultima 7 part 2: Serpent's Isle and play in a living and breathing world that could take you a very long time to finish. You know, not everyone is a fan of games you can finish in one day. Some game makers are getting very lazy.

its limited because of the stupid xbox, they cant cram all those pretty graphics and audio on to one dvd without sacrificing game time, bray is the only way to go for nicer looking and longer games.

"Ya bray seems to work wonders on the ps3..... NOT!"That's more a matter of exposure, the PS3 has a smaller audience. It doesn't take a genius to notice that the graphics are more sophisticated on the PS3.

I never play multiplayer so that's no consolation... but I'll probably play realistic and spent hours sneaking about.However, I don't mind UbiSoft making the game more casual friendly, it means a greater chance of future work on the series.

wow 12 hours, that means an FPS/stealth pro will probably do it in 8-10 so thats 1 day play. wonderful why on earth would you pay £50 for 1 days possible enjoyment? that £50 can get you many better things than 1 days play.i remember deus ex that took like 30 hours and had a replay value second to none. that was on 1 cd so space isn't an issue for length its the developers cutting corners

For 12 hours of game play they better cut the price in half...Even playing the co-op/multiplayer gets old really fast if there IS NO CONTENT!!!

"It doesn't take a genius to notice that the graphics are more sophisticated on the PS3. "If by that you mean the textures get really fuzzy at a short distance then ya.. they are really sophisticated. You ps3 fanboys need to quit sucking sony off. BTW I don't own any of the consoles but I have played on both.

For all the haters- rent it.I thought it was a terribile idea at first too but then I remembered I never finished Chaos Theory because I found it so boring and repetitive. Cinematic is the approach taken by these guys.

if you know how graphics, audio and storage work, you will understand how 1 dvd does not suffice for todays high quality games, and game devs know it to, ie mgs4 not possible on 360.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
i like the 360, but for longer good looking games, we might have to go the way of downloads and add-ons, which is good to.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
ps3 is still holding back, they haven used the potential of its full hardware, only 3 cpu's have been running for most games to the other 4 are still waiting for action. 360 only has 3 cpu's so its already maxed out its limit, so all they can do is prettier shorter games.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
err, well if too big for a DVD, put it on two. In the old days we had games on 6 floppies or 2 CDs LOLJust because they it says it takes 12hrs, that would only be if you knew how to play it already Im sure.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
more like 5 dvds for one game... maybe for ff, but its just not cost effective, better off downloading new add-on content.w45l56

easy to say when you have no idea what i just said. can i ring the fanboy bell?

"Ya bray seems to work wonders on the ps3..... NOT!"Metal gear solid 4 is a fine example of a 60GB game on a blu ray disk, so suck it xbox owner!
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
CPU's don't do s**t for games. Get that misconception out of your guys minds. And MGS4 only filled up 50gb's not 60gb's jesus christ what kind idiots use MG here. COD4 was 8 hours on regular, 40-60 hours on veteran so its a good length i would say.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
cod was short, and yes cpus do help in gameplay you moron. see all those particles, physics and volumetrics, lighting, shadows not to mention objects on screen at once.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
sure the 360 can do those things to, the ps3 can just do them better.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
Thats all graphics. CPU does none of which u have mentioned except maybe the last one, having all of the objects on screen. So i am not a moron, i am a nerd. I sleep, eat, s**t, drink hardware everyday since 1996.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
to have volumetrics an interactive psychics, even ai, the brain has to do the math, and, underneath the interactive meshes and proper particles lays the cpu, not just a animated textures for particles, were talkin, proper bounce reflect etc.
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
Perhaps ur correct, i just overdue the whole GPU thing in many ways. Because technically GPUS r superior to CPU's. But thanks for the input
Splinter Cell Conviction Will Be 12 Hours Long
Just f**king great. $50 for 12 hours? I'm going to download it instead =,=
