Splinter Cell - Overview

Splinter Cell is a series of stealth-oriented third person shooters developed by Ubisoft Montreal.

The player plays as Sam Fisher, an agent of Third Echelon (a subdivision of the NSA) who is often sent on difficult and dangerous missions involving dangers to the entire world. In recent games, however, Fisher works more independently, and this has been reflected by a move towards more action-based gameplay and a reduction of stealth.
