Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell for the PC Has Gone Gold
is the press release announcing the PC version of the stealthy third-person Tom
Clancy shooter is complete and off to duplication. The exact in-store date is
uncertain at this time, it is listed in the release as mid-February. The
announcement is accompanied by
a
batch of new screenshots, and here are some details from the release on the
game's storyline: "You are Sam Fisher. A lone shadow-operative in a world
where lost seconds can allow terrorist plans to become deadly reality. You
operate in the heart of hostile territory. Spy. Steal. Destroy. Assassinate.
Just don't ever be seen. Because when the stakes are this high, the choice
between leaving a witness or a corpse is no choice at all. When two CIA agents
mysteriously vanish in the former Soviet republic of Georgia, the NSA's secret
sub agency, Third Echelon, deploys Sam Fisher--its most capable splinter cell
operative--to recover them. Fisher soon uncovers a deeper conspiracy: a plot
that threatens to destabilize the world order and spark nuclear conflict."
