I have never played TC'S SC but the character from these trailer move the same as Sam fisher does, is it the same 3D engine? Like half-Life uses the Same engine from Quake 2 or UT from Quake 3?

Are we goin to see too many games like these now?

I agree with you this one have some elements of Splinter Cell, maybe it's will be more than that in the final stage.

Mission Impossible on the N64 originated some of the ideas in Splinter Cell. The movie Mission Impossible originated most of them. If anything, Splinter Cell is a copy of Mission Impossible.

Graphically I would say it looks more like Deus Ex or Metal Gear. However, I would prefer saying it looks like its own engine more than anything.

I was flipping through my friends OXM and if it hadn't had the "Mission Impossible 2" headliner I would've thought it was Splinter Cell.

Hopefully they don't rip off too much from Splinter Cell.

Well Half-Life is a hybrid of the Quake and Quake II engine with a lot of custom coding. UT and Quake 3 are completely different engines, as is the new Half-Life 2 engine which was built from scratch inhouse.

As for Splinter Cell, Ubi Montreal took the Unreal game engine, tweaked the hell out of it, and voila - Splinter Cell is born.

But back to the MI: OS it does have a very "Splinter Cell" vibe and the main character does look like Sam but Tom Cruise, as Ethan Hunt, looks just like that so I think it is just a coincidense or as Mericmac said, probably the basis for Splinter Cell.

*cough* Splinter Cell Clone *cough*

Just kidding, I owned the first Mission Impossible game and liked it, a little. Splinter Cell is pretty much what Mission Impossible should've been. Honestly, I can't wait for this game. Plus, it might put some pressure on the guys making Splinter Cell 2 and it might make it a better game. It(mi: operation surma) almost looks like Metal Gear Solid 2 and Splinter Cell combined.

I could care less what this game looks like. I think it is going to be a very good game. It looks to have all the elements of mgs2 and splinter cell that I liked. There are awesome manuvers (ala the sneak out of a corner and snap a persons neck :D ). I cant wait for this game.
