Version 2 is weird, it's a lot closer to Chaos Theory in terms of gameplay and the levels are set up a lot better in my opinion. I do love the HUD in this game even if it's a little jank. Something I missed a lot in Version 1.
However, even though the story is the thing I care about the least....How do they make it significantly more inconsistent and filled with plotholes? It's kinda insane.
Though, one thing I do appreciate is how this version is visually much darker and in that sense more of what I want from these games.
The levels in this one are significantly better than V.1 and in that sense I do prefer this over V.1 a ton and would actually consider this among the best of the series.

A pretty janky, flawed game that offers some unique ideas. If I had anything to criticize here, the gameplay is watered down compared to the previous games. The story is probably the worst here out of any game in the Splinter Cell series, being super inconsistent and dumb.
Edgy vibes overall, I don't hate it. But it's a huge step down from Chaos Theory. Though as of now it's literally #2 in my replay ratings.

Atleast the game was very short. Because goddamn...
So firstly, the fact this game precedes Double Agent and manages to just spoil a shitload of important things from it is insane, but it's not like the stories really matter in these games to me personally, they're uninteresting and I'm really only here for the gameplay and levels.
So uh...How WAS the gameplay? Uhh......Hah...Uh yeah. So. This type of game just doesn't translate to PSP. Though it totally could've benefit from having a camera that can adjust automatically or follow you rather than having an obnoxious control scheme.
Combat in this game is worse than it was in any of the other games and that for some reason especially says a lot. There's a lot of downgrades compared to previous games so stealth is much less open and you can no longer handle a situation like you could in Chaos Theory.
Sure, argue all you want "It's a PSP game" and yes, while that is true, you could still easily bring specific gameplay systems and build original maps and an original and unique story on PSP. But this game has none of that.
So far, out of my Splinter Cell series replay; this and Pandora Tomorrow are the worst.
