World Exclusive. Screenshots of new Splinter Cell 'downloadable' missions!

Xboxworld has received some exclusive screenshots from the upcoming 'downloadable' mission "Kola Cell" coming soon via Xbox Live. The level will be available for download via Xbox Live as of March 14th. The new level deals with the Phillip Masse story (in case you've forgotten, Phillip Masse is they guy in the Ministry of Defence elevator that you have to eavesdrop with the microphone. He's a notorious hacker that the bad guys employ to do some pretty nasty coding.)

This is nice timing for all European Xbox Live purchasers as its release will coincide with the release of Xbox Live for them!

As to how these levels will be made available to Australian Splinter Cell fans (as an XBL release date for us is still to be announced) XBoxworld spoke to Owen Hughes from Ubisoft Australia and had a brief chat about how they plan to make this level available to us..

"How will we get it to Aussie gamers? This is the first of the downloadable missions and it's only one level so creating a CD for a 38mb file would be pretty expensive, especially if we have to do this for each new level. We have already spoken to OAXM about this and they're looking into covermounting it sometime between March and June (schedules permitting).

We will be sent this new level on a disc within ten days so we'll evaluate what should be done after we've seen it."

There you have it, it's great to see a publisher working out ways to get that XBL content to us poor Aussies! Xboxworld will have more info on this as news breaks.

Look really good. But i don't have XBL. Maybe i must wait until June or July to get it on a OXM disc.

**XboxGamers** · 02-19-2003

I don't have Live to so likewise.

**No Fear 23** · 02-19-2003

LOL, someone had to say it!

**Xbox Owner** · 02-19-2003

well, i think they look jaggy as hell

**RudedogX** · 02-19-2003

Two questions to that...Have you played the game, and have you seen the amount of stuff you can interact with?

**OuFtb** · 02-19-2003

I was wondering, I don't have live so I have to wait for it to come out on the OXM disk, how long will it be until its on the disk, I seen people saying June or July, is that the offical date or just geusing. I hope it comes sooner.

**hebgbz** · 02-19-2003

I think that is a hopeful guesstimate.

**wweomaniac** · 02-19-2003

about the whole issue regarding not having XBL...

well I doubt that itll be on an OXM disc. I think thsi because I think that this downloadable content is being used by MS as an incentive to get XBL. It makes sense if you think about it.

**OuFtb** · 02-19-2003

It does make sense I just hope they don't do it. I don't have live and probably won't get it. My only live game is Splinter Cell and thats just downlodable content, and it wouldn't make sense just to buy live for that. Hopefully its on the OXM disk I guess we will have to wait and see.

**No Fear 23** · 02-19-2003

OXM said they will have it on

xbox owner,

The first screenshot looks like it's taken in the PS2 version (look on the right of the screenshot, where are show your life bar, mission objective and what type of weapon you use now). The other two are (i'm sure) in the Xbox version.
