Basically what’s a game that you’ve played that seemed so mind blowingly unique at the time but for one reason or another the game never took off and other developers didn’t pick up and run with it either.

    Simultaneous sound and light meters in Splinter Cell. Yes, some games have the enemies respond to fast/slow walking sounds differently, but having an actual volume readout was next-level.

      Ah Chaos Theory, such a good game.

      On Xbox live you had to watch how loud you talked over the headset or gaurds would hear you.

      Splinter Cell Chaos Theory is still my favorite stealth game.

      It’s a goddamn shame that Ubisoft owns it. In the right hands, it could have had a second wind, but we all know that them rebooting the series would destroy it.

      “Purchase this invisible suit for 29.99!”

        Dude I’ve waited years for a game to live up to Chaos Theory but nothing has and I doubt anything ever will.
