Splinter Cell Xbox is now part of Microsoft's Xbox Platinum Hits line. If you still haven't tried SC on the Xbox, you'll get good value for your hard-earned US $19.99.


**UPDATE: The Splinter Cell UK website mentions that the "Xbox Classics" (the UK's version of the US Platinum Hits line) version of SC is "enhanced". For those without Xbox Live, it includes all 3 downloadable missions (Kola Cell, Vselka Infiltration and Vselka Submarine) and the new 4-minute cinematic intro that was featured in the PS2 version.

If anyone can confirm that the US Platinum Hits version is also "enhanced", please post it in our forums here.

Dang, that seems quick. Kind of suprising since it was so popular. Does anyone remember when this game was released?

I checked the official site's archived news:
http://www.splintercell.com/us/allnews.php

SC for Xbox shipped Nov 18, 2002, almost exactly a year ago.

>Kind of suprising since it was so popular.

Yeah, I was surprised SC is selling cheap so soon ... they could still probably sell at a higher price like Halo Xbox which hasn't gone Platinum Hits despite being out for 2 years.

Hey, this is cool news: the Splinter Cell UK website mentions that the "Xbox Classics" (the UK's version of the US Platinum Hits line) version of SC is "enhanced". For those without Xbox Live, it includes all 3 downloadable missions (Kola Cell, Vselka Infiltration and Vselka Submarine) and the new 4-minute cinematic intro that was featured in the PS2 version.

Anyone out there can confirm that the US Platinum Hits version is also enhanced with the new content? If so, then this would really be the "definitive" version of Splinter Cell.
