Just had a quick search and it seems I must have misread the article - apparently it will only be appearing on the Xbox 360 tomorrow - Sorry for the confusion!

I think it looks quite good. I enjoyed Double Agent too, although they could have made that a much better game than it was, in terms of the having to keep the terrorists and the Third Echelon happy. You could maybe have been able to fully choose a side, that way it could've been way more open ended in my opinion, they could have added different mission trees and made your decisions impact the game much more than "X" character gets killed if you perform "X" action.

Won't touch this until the DRM is removed. Sad indeed - I was looking forward to this!

i havent played DA on PC, have done on console and it was quite good
but i heard that the PC version was very poor - looking at the game i am not expecting anything decent from it

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere already but just came across it and found it amusing. Why DRM will never work : http://www.bradcolbow.com/archive.php/?p=205
That is so true - in the end they are making it harder for the legit consumers

Awww, hoping you read it somewhere else, disappointed now.

Hehe sorry buddy
It makes me wonder why there won't be a PC demo...
DRM issues + No Demo = No buy for me... I think I'll be going console - and that's if I buy it at all!
its still very much splinter cell, i found it hard to see in the dark without night vision though, mark and execute works nicely but only requires one silent takedown to gain 3 marks which makes it fairly easy, cover to cover animation is nice, the ai voice work is quite bad... i found that once they where in seek mode they would say the same thing over and over again in that kind of "who turned out the lights, what was that noise" kind of way

Looks more like Bourne than Fisher to me...
And they changed Fisher's history
and there doesn't seem to be much stealth gameplay, more humanly impossible gunfights. If i wanted that, i would play Crysis.
Looks like another fail to me.

its still very similar in its control scheme and gameplay flow, you have to access then act, then reaccess then act again, you get caught out and your dead just as quickly as in any other sc. The demo was ok, didnt wow me but i much prefer the direction they eventually took compared to the original concepts 3 or so years ago

Having played the demo on 360 it didn't seem that bad but I don't like the DRM they've slapped onto it so I would have to rent/buy it for 360 someday - not PC - even if the graphics are far better!

That's not actually telling Ubisoft to go to hell as they're still getting your money. All they will see is a drop in PC sales but a rise in consoles, solidifying their view that worrying about PC sales is a waste of time.
Personally I'm not giving them any more of my money...
