Splinter Cell: Conviction was a sharp departure from the norm for Sam Fisher, and as a consequence, as a long-time fan of the series, it didn’t resonate with me (and a fair number of other like-minded souls).

I’ll admit, when it comes to games, I’ve been known to go from hero-to-zero faster than you can say “hadouken”. Not so long ago, I had the strangest thought: what if the 17 th century English poet, William Congreve was around today?
