Don't buy this until a good patch comes out!
I bought this because I really enjoyed the first Splinter Cell. I was hoping it'd just be the same as before, with the multiplayer incorporated smoothly. I discovered to my disgust that this is a piece of crap. After I installed, I tried to set it up to play. Appearently it doesn't like my drivers I have for my Radeon 9800. So I rolled back to the ones it said were working. Bull ****! Those didn't work either. I install the patch, and I get horrid frame rate, plus the graphics are completely distorted! I have a rainbow color about an inch thick running around my whole monitor when I play! It is so distracting I can't even play it. So I fire up the multiplayer. Absolute crap. Horrid framerate, same bad graphics, aweful sound, the works!So I uninstall it, planning to return it. I then discover that it's anti-copying scheme screwed up my virtual cd drive software. It blocked the program from making virtual drives just because Ubi Soft was afraid someone would copy it and pass it around on the net. Yet they can still do that anyways! All it does is block law-abiding citizens from using legally purchased software. I managed to fix their problem, yet I refuse to install their software again until they fix this game and promise not to add this anti-copying crap to other games.
