It's been something over a month since its release. Assuming you've got to play it, what do you think of it? Does it meet the expectations of SC?
Personal Summary (no actual spoilers)
[spoiler]+ Good system for multiple styles of play & non-lethal options
+ Enjoyable campaign overall
+ Solid multiplayer, from what I can see
- No Ironside
- Co-op missions didn't appeal to me as much as Conviction's
- Lacking visuals at times, but no big issues[/spoiler]
8/10 imo.

It was really good. Not as good as Chaos Theory, but far better than Conviction. I like the amount of options you have to deal with situations, as well as the sandbox-like level design. As far as I'm concerned, the only true way to play the game is on the Perfectionist difficulty; getting rid of the Mark & Execute "I win" button and the wall hack goggles really improves the game. I didn't like the plot that much though, too Michael Bay summer blockbuster-y for me; I really miss the writing style of the older games. And of course, the lack of Michael Ironside was a travesty. Ubisoft should have just made a brand new character.
