Super Bunnyhop - Retro Review: Spies vs. Mercs 2005 (And how to play it today!)

[Zero-ELEC]

Super Bunnyhop does a small review (and even smaller tutorial) on Splinter Cell's premier Spy vs. Guard multiplayer mode.

Honestly, I never played these game modes myself, but watching this video I'd love to see a standalone version of this. Super interesting how the mechanics make people act out the roles of bumbling guards.

Hide within deep shadows and snap my neck if old.

They need to do a stand alone release for one of these still

I really hope Ubisoft goes with their current online theme for some franchises and revive Spies vs. Mercs as a new standalone Splinter Cell game.
Great video as always.

This was a surprisingly fun watch for something I didn't know about or have any interest in prior to the video. I really like that the player size was so small, at least to me that makes it easier to see how mind games can develop.

I do feel like if Ubi made a standalone today, it would be more like Blacklist rather than Chaos Theory

 

[okay]

Best version of this was Pandora Tomorrow. Chaos Theory was already adding all sorts of dumb gadgets

Saw this a few days ago, made me feel like I really missed a bit of a phenomenon as far as multiplayer games go

I think Chaos was basically the peak of what you could add and get away with in terms of gadgets. Like I enjoy Blacklist a bit, but it was just too much

One of the greatest multiplayer modes / gameplay ever. Every second in a match is tense.
