Best stealth game ever, one of the best games ever developed and produced by Ubisoft. Amazing production quality and gameplay is simply impeccable, the best. Thank you to the lead developer Clint Hocking, amazing work on this game, I wish you a merry Christmas and a happy (stealthy) new year!

So a few things. The game is incredible and its stood up to time just like how I remembered it back in the day. Super immersive, awesome mechanics and the environment and audio is just amazing even compared to todays standards honestly. Sam Fishers character is so iconic and in Chaos Theory they really peaked the franchise with him. If you never played it back in the day, dont worry about trying it now, it runs great on my computer no issues. Before you launch just go on pcgamerwiki and download the widescreen fix and the patches, no issues once you do that. Im on 4k 32", had issues and did that all fixed. Legendary game

Game is the pinnacle of save scumming. Played this on Expert difficulty where one or two shots means you're dead. I can now confidently say I have beaten the game without taking damage once and possibly have the capability to now be Sam Fisher in real life and take out anybody without suffering real life consequences. The bomb defusal part sucked though, I have played that shit so many times I can replicate Shetland's speech word for word.

Probably the best stealth game ever made. Although for steam I recommend getting widescreen fix so you can alt tab safely and xinput fix if you want to play on a controller like I did. After that the game ran great.
