Sweet game. This was the only game in the series I never got around to playing. I wish I would have played when it released. If you like the classic splinter cell or stealth games in general, this one is good to go.

Really really good. As far as the stealth genre go, I'm pretty sure this is the chicken before the egg kind of thing. So much better than it's predecessor, I'm having a blast replaying this gem so far. Higly recommend it, even if you're not a fan of the serie. Chaos Theory might be the best of the Splinter Cell saga, period.

Final Rating: 100%, expert difficulty

Chaos Theory is the first stealth game I ever played. I played this on the PS2 as a kid and was addicted. It was the coolest game I ever saw. I played it again recently and it still is the coolest game I ever played. I was addicted

As a PS2 game on the Deck, it is a bit power-hungry. Pulling 15W at 90fps is a LOT for a PS2 game, especially when I pull 15W or less in modern AAAs. I managed to drop it down to 6W-7W with 'PowerTools' and frame caps

There is no built in controller support for this game, but it does has custom control setup for the Deck by default! The controls were also confusing. It took me a few hours to get the hang of it. There were no proper tutorials or guides/hints

No achievements, unfotunately. I'd love to add this to my completionist showcase

No cloud save, either. So once you uninstall, your save file goes with it. Unless you manually save it. Which IDC enough to. I took screenshots for my proof of completion

I want to play more Splinter Cell games so badly, but modern Ubisoft games don't exist on PC. I won't make some random account or download some random spyware launcher. The only reason I actually bought Chaos Theory is bcuz I didn't need some account or download some useless bloatware/spyware launcher
