From the early to mid 2000’s, the Tom Clancy video game series were the top military games in the market. Somehow the whole franchise ever got better after Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. It’s so amazing that with stunning graphics that could fill up the entire disc, Chaos Theory had so many features like co-op, online multiplayer (spies vs. mercs), and a lot of replay value with each and every one of the levels. When it comes down to it, what makes Chaos Theory great to this day is the constant variety the game throws at you. Part of the reason is that Chaos Theory is the last classic Splinter Cell game before they had to change the direction of the series to lose it’s identity. There is no one right way, and you aren’t punished for taking one over the other, though those looking for 100 percent ratings on all of the missions will need to go full stealth – not killing anyone or setting off alarms. Even so, I never felt restricted even when going full-stealth, because the levels offered you so many options for being stealthy that you never even really notice you’re doing things one way. Chaos Theory, amazingly, can be both very difficult and very easy, depending on your play style. If you aren’t happy with the direction that the series has taken over the past few entries, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory holds up spectacularly, and can easily be called the best in the series thus far. Any fan of the stealth genre should do themselves a favor and pick this game up.From the early to mid 2000’s, the Tom Clancy video game series were the top military games in the market.
