For those of you wanting a MGS game on the Xbox.
IGN has posted an article about a new Tom Clancy game - Splinter for the Xbox. Early word has it that is the next step up from MGS. Splinter unlike previous Tom Clancy games is not team based.
Here's a small snippet:
The list of things Sam Fisher can do in Splinter Cell reads like a list of "cool stuff they should let you do in videogames." You're the ultimate covert operative, dressed in black with utility belts and straps filled with awesome toys and gadgets, so I was delighted to find out that they also let you do fundamental physical tasks that make covert operatives even more deadly. Perhaps a couple of comparison with Hideo Kojima's masterpiece can illustrate it best.
Solid Snake/Raiden could hide behind corners and boxes and wheel around for a shot at the bad guys. That was cool, but Sam can hide behind corners and still shoot bad guys by reaching his pistol around the corner and barely peeking his head out, thereby staying covered.
Another one to keep an eye out for. No set release date - sometimes this year.
