Description Ubisoft has announced that it has decided to release all platform versions of the highly anticipated Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Chaos Theory simultaneously in March 2005. This marks a change from the usual SC policy which has seen Sam Fisher surfacing on PC and XBox first with all other versions taking a few months longer.
It is not clear why Ubisoft has decided to follow the simultaneous route since the company will not comment but the easiest explanation is that delays in development have delayed the PC and XBox versions enough to justify such a move. Another possible explanation has to do with hardware manufacturers and their desire to see titles released first on their consoles, such rumours don't seem very likely however, when considering that SC : Chaos Theory will miss the lucrative holiday season.
There is also, of course, the official explanation which states that : Splinter Cell Chaos Theory is based on some truly astounding design concepts. It's graphics are extraordinary, the way it handles co-op is amazing, and it's new gameplay dynamics could take the stealth genre further than we'd ever hoped. Considering all of this, the delay makes perfect sense. The game deserves that extra love and attention...
