They' re both far too different to even compare them, Metal Gear Solid Focuses on alot of concealment. making something big happen, and then sneaking up behind the guy that comes to investigate. it' s fun, but it isn' t very realistic, shooting a dude at point blank in the back of the head with an m9 when a neck snap or knife would suffice (excluding snake eater, that knife was hands-down awesome).

Splinter Cell is more focused on not being detected at all, using shadow more than cover, and keeping people alive. it' s alot more down to earth, and sometimes you want that.

However, going rambo on a group of about 8 russian spetznaz with a carbine is gratifying as always. I' m looking forward to the Next-Gen sequels of both franchises. It' ll be interesting to see if the new ones are more similar to eachother, because of the time they take place, or if they' ve grown more different and original. i' m hoping for the second one.

Sam could kick Snakes ass!

Damn, Snake wouldn' t even know Sam was there and Sam would just be hanging upside down doing his bat thing and frowning at Snake for ruining his own night vision by smoking on the job. At the opportune moment Fisher would simply grab Snake and snap his neck, then drop him over the side of the ship and call for extraction before the damn thing sinks...

Check out IGN' s Sam Fisher: Bad Ass Mofo article (note that the link provided will take you to part 5 which is the last one, but for some reason they didn' t connect them properly and part 5 is the only one with the links to the other 4 parts)

Metal Gear Solid any time.
There' s more focus on story and the characters in MGS and the gameplay is really great.
I don' t think Splinter Cell is realistic. First of all, places aren' t as dark in reality as they are in the game, especially not important places like the ones you visit in Splinter Cell. Also, if Sams enemies would actually have a real flashlights he' d be spotted immediately. If Snake uses his thermal googles he' d see Sam quite easy. The Splinter Cell games are still cool though.

but see before snake could see sam with his thermal vision sam would shoot that overhead camera that snake totes around so he' d only be able to look at stuff in first person view. but then Snake would realize that he didn' t need that, and all he had to do was turn off the nvg' s. Wait for that familiar BWEEEEEEEE... sound and look for the triangular light formation in the rafters.

To which sam would reply by throwing down a smoke grenade, and make Snake cough so much from his already tar encrusted lungs, that Sam would be able to turn them off and move...

but then Batman bursts from the shade, and hit Sam & Snake with a bat grenade. Then Sam got P1553d and began to attack, but didn' t expect to be blocked by Shaq, who would proceed to open up a can of Shaq Fu... oh wait, nevermind.

Final Verdict: Chuck Norris would kick both of their scrawny stealth little @553s. hands down, no questions asked.

one thing allways got me about splinter cell, those 3 bright greens lights on his head .... you might as well bring a nice white flag waveing it about with " I' m here!" printed in bright red. at least snake can hide in the grass and eat frogs with sam eats lead, damn googles.

That is the most retarded complaint about the game ever! Why do MGS fans always use that same excuse. Please...

1- The goggles are his trade mark. The three little dots were designed to make Sam a familiar game character.
2- Sam is completely dressed in black. A lot of the time the only way you can see Sam while he is crawling around in the dark is by the glowing goggles and the little thing on his back. If that wasn' t there you' d be moving Sam around aimlessly.
3- If you are going to complain about Sam' s goggles you should also be complaining about Snake running around in a damn box or changing his wardrobe every five seconds when he moves from different surroundings. " He look I' m grass! Oh wait... hey look, I' m bricks!!! Dang it... hey! I' m mud! Damn it... grass again." Snake would be spending too much time changing his clothes to even notice Sam' s goggles. Snake would probably trip putting on his 3rd set of pants if he did notice.
