Yes, which is why I was arguing it would be best to have both .I see what you're saying. Personally, I think it is more thrilling to nearly be caught. Hiding in the high grass in MGS3 and having a patrol wander mere inches away, unaware of your presence, is much more tense than actually getting caught.
For me I'd prefer that, but you can already see in the comments here that the notion of having to be able to finish the game undetected is too engrained for many, that even losing the scoring system wouldn't make much difference. Besides I don't really want to argue taking away player autonomy either.I guess getting through undetected is simply super bad ass. Do you think it would be as much of an issue if there wasn't a scoring system for it...?

You wouldn't give RE4 a 6/10 because it doesn't play like its predecessors, would you? It's the same deal here: you should judge Blacklist based on its merits (or lack thereof), not because it doesn't play exactly like CT.
Is the Edge review worth paying attention to?
I'm not familiar with their track record.
The Not Yet on that Kotaku review made no sense. His issues with the game are its story and its core gameplay. He doesn't actually think those things are just going to be patched into something completely different, does he? Just put No. That's what that's there for.
Judging from the prerelease material, Edge's review seems more in line with what I'd expect than the others
No. Edge are bipolar and totally inconsistent. Or am I thinking of EGM?
No it bothers me that Sam has turned into Isaac Clarke thoughDoes it not REALLLY bother anyone that Sam should be like 60 by now? But seems to have started ageing backwards Benjamin Button style.
You won't agree with it then about six months later you will admit that they were correct. (My typical cycle with their reviews).Is the Edge review worth paying attention to?

Edge is the most fucking pretentious outlet alive. I never listen to their shit - I actually cringe reading issues of their shitey magazine.
Oh but good for Blacklist. I never expected this to be any good. Woo!
why cant devs get "ONE" Wii U port right? there is always something missing.
If I as a consumer have to choose spending my hard earned money on a game, I'd rather get an honest review and get something else first
I played it for 6 hours today at a friends place who gets review copies early, so here are my initial impressions
PS3 version?
Yup.Edge gave Conviction an 8. Sometimes I agree with them, sometimes I don't. They're as fallible as any other review outlet.
The tearing is really worrying me. In the gametrailers review you can even see severe tearing aboard the plane during a cutscene where they're just talking.The game looks quite underwhelming, the outdoor scenes have severe tearing issues and are a sight for sore eyes, get it for the PC if you must
Cramped compared to what?Sections in the game encourage exploration and allow the player to use multiple routes for completing a mission, however the overall gameplay feels more cramped than ever (but this could be beacuse I played only the first few missions in the game)

It could have been legendary. Love the way Future Soldier controls and all the gunsmith stuff.Still pissed about Future Soldier not having terrorist hunt.
This game is *really* good BTW. Lots of content, lots of player choice, lots of replayability, lots of different missions and approaches.
This is a real Splinter Cell game.

I've got to disagree here. MGS has almost alway been a get seen-you're fucked kind of game in almost all difficulties. If you get lucky enough to escape you could continue, but no way can you take the action approach that 4 allows for.
