Ubisoft's putting some major advertising in Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360 and PC). How serious? Let's have Jeffrey Dickstein of Publisher take the floor on this one: As you're slamming a terrorist's face into a urinal, you might ask yourself, "is this the new Degree deodorant I should buy?"

With a quick announcement from Ubisoft comes details for the CE of Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360 and PC). With the arrival of the angsty and edgier Sam Fisher also comes some edgy-looking game goods for the Splinter Cell fan.

There's no stopping him now. Sam Fisher is most definitely coming - he can't be any more hungry for the truth. The crucial date of reckoning: 2.23.10. Watch the Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360, PC) after the jump.

PAX 2009 will play host to demonstrations of quite a few big-name titles coming out. Among them is Ubisoft's Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360, PC), the oft-delayed continuation of Sam Fisher's stealthy saga. On the scene at PAX 09 were the merry band of men called Left4Friends, and they've let us in on the goings-on that happened in the Conviction live demo. Read on for their thoughts on it.

A blurred print on the latest E3 behind the scenes video (part 1) for Ubisoft's Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360, PC) might just have given away the final location for the game. MS Xbox World reader Shnooper pointed out to a section at the 1:04 time mark pointing out the potential spoiler.

So be warned: (potential) SPOILER AHEAD.

Well, well, well. Look who dropped in on the party. Just a couple of articles ago, we were still searching for Mr. Sam Fisher. We should have known he was gonna be at the E3. After all, the new teaser on Splinter Cell: Conviction's website did give out that he was gonna be in LA. Sneaky, sneaky Sam Fisher. Anyway, what we have here is what appears to be an E3 trailer for the said title. So what is an E3 trailer doing out in the wild at this time? Lots of leaks in E3's  pipes, huh?

I guess we're still playing the "Where in the world is Sam Fisher" game. An update has been made to the so-far cryptic website for Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction (PC, Xbox 360) title that is set to be delivered by Ubisoft. And yes, it actually does make things a bit clearer, albeit still shrouded in mystery.

Do you have any information on Sam Fisher? No? Well, the reason I ask is because his game, Splinter Cell: Conviction, is asking the very same question on its official website. Intriguing, isn't it?

Assassin's Creed (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) is not exactly a sneaky title. With so much hype, you'd wonder how Altair will ever do some discreet killing when thousands of gamers have their eyes set on the bird of prey. Website Riottt seeks to shed more light on the title, as they sat down with producer Jade Raymond to talk about what's hot with Ubisoft Montreal's latest offering (aside from Jade).

Fans of Prince of Persia or anyone familiar with the series would notice that Altair's acrobatic feats don't stray too far from the prince. This isn't a mere coincidence, "the guys who made that happen are now on our team, and you can see that they’re trying to take it to the next level" said Jade.

Based on what we know so far, Assassin's Creed is an entire package that shows what gaming has become, both as entertainment and art medium. "There’s a book called 'Alamut,' and it’s about the assassins. That book was a big influence. Obviously, Ridley Scott’s 'Kingdom Of Heaven,' but also 'Black Hawk Down' in the way it was shot and the art direction, that had a big influence on the look. "

The game takes cues from other smash hits like GTA to create the ultimate mix of sandbox, platforming, stealth, and action genres. Following the trend of open-ended environments, the team "watched [free running] videos to death to get that feeling."

Splinter Cell gave Sam Fisher a new look which resembles Altair a lot. Jade doesn't see this negatively, however, saying "it’s like that argument over who invented noodles, the Chinese or the Italians, and maybe you could argue about it forever, but maybe noodles are just a good idea."

Bad news for Splinter Cell: Conviction (Xbox 360, PC) fans looking to get their hands on a copy of Sam Fisher's latest adventure this holiday season - the game's release date has unfortunately been pushed back to January or March of next year.

This development started to become apparent after the game failed to make an appearance at today's E3. So what could be the reason for the delay? No actual information about that yet, but at the very least, it's not that long a wait - only a few months after the game's previous November release date.

A guess as to just what caused the delay, though, could be the fact that many highly-anticipated titles are also making their debut around the same time, so it's a smart move coming from Ubisoft. We certainly don't want Sam Fisher getting buried by all the other new releases, don't we?
