Every Tom Clancy's Video Game Ranked From WORST To BEST
Ойындар
The Tom Clancy’s series began life when UbiSoft started working with Red Storm Entertainment, a developer owned by Clancy that endeavoured to turn his stories into games. The franchise is divided into three main subseries; Rainbow Six, which centres around squad-based, tactical action; Ghost Recon, which put players into the shoes of a special unit of black ops soldiers; and Splinter Cell, which are action-adventure titles with a focus on stealth. Over the years, there have been dozens of games inspired by Clancy’s work, with several unique versions of the same game having been developed for different consoles, and today, we’re going to separate the Splinter Cell-Yeahs from the Rainbow Sucks. This is Every Tom Clancy’s Video Game Ranked from Worst to Best.

The OG for sure. I got it on release for PC, and it was revolutionary for the time. I had never played an fps that required pre-planning and tactics until then, and it added so much depth to a (at the time) traditionally shallow genre.

Ding Chavez is actually Domingo "Ding" Chavez. A character that appears in Clansy's books. I think first time in Clear and present danger and after that in other books includingRainbow six
By the time you got to #13 my brain was so used to seeing videogame graphics that the dressage footage looked like a Sydney Olympics videogame and I wondered when it was released.
Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield is probably my favorite shooter of all time. Underrated I think and way ahead of it's time with some mechanics like limping and bleeding while injured. Also you would make more noise while walking. You couldn't run as well while wounded. Awesome customization with the weapons and gear as well.
Spent the first half of this video. Exclaiming:"what the hell!?!?? That game was so good?!?! How could--- Oh never mind, it's the PSP/ gameboy/ PS1 version."

While I'm aware the first Splinter Cell is why the third exists, that doesn't necessarily make it "better." I played both on the Xbox, and game three is definingly more refined. It not only looks better, but a lot of mechanics and little things where improved all around. And while the PS2 version of the original took a visual hit, it similarly ironed out the mechanics and controls of the original. That exclusive level is actually pretty damn sweet too!

Chaos Theory is still a fantastic stealth game and vastly superior to any other entry in the franchise. The original may have paved the way for Chaos Theory, but as you say, that doesn't mean it's better.
Can you do a TMNT game ranking? The franchise have a lot of games and they're pretty varied in terms of quality and gameplay styles. Would love to see a ranking.
33:26 Hey! You used my gameplay footage! That's awesome😂😂😂
I am genuinely shocked you guys listed Ghost Recon: Island Thunder as a PS2 game. There was never a release of it on PS2. That is why Jungle Storm had all of Island Thunder's campaign in it. Usually you guys have really accurate info but this is a pretty massive error.

@abdultariq3457 I downloaded both the PC and PS2 versions (PCSX2) of Chaos Theory. While the PC version looks much better, there are some things missing from it. The PS2 version had for example, a small pond where you could hide the bodies in the beginning of the game while on PC the area was just a concrete floor. I am sure there are more different things when I progress further.

@@Mr.Ditkovich. in my opinion, and I’m sure this is the consensus, is that the PC/xbox version of chaos theory is generally better than the ps2 version. There’s not much in it and with any of these platforms you’re still getting one of, if not the greatest stealth game ever.
I feel like it was maybe a bit unfair to rate the PS2 and GC Splinter Cell games as a separate entry but not any of the three sequels released in the 6th gen. Like the GC versions had no multiplayer and the PS2 versions had badly compromised multiplayer. Combined with significant visual cutbacks compared to the Xbox and PC and you get versions that were not really the same game. EDIT: Actually overall I am shocked that the GameCube versions were not separated into their own entries in all cases. These were titles focused on online multiplayer and the GameCube versions had no online multiplayer. They were missing half or more of the experience.

Tried the original again right after and still hated it. Would kill for a remaster of the 2 where they fix the first and just upgrade the visuals of the 2nd lol

I wish Ubisoft would return to mission based Ghost Recon games in the style of the original GR and GR2 on PC or at least return to soemthing like GRAW but it will never happen. Feels like there is a big hole where once were tactical first and third person singleplayer games that are not milsim but also not full on arcade.

Dude, me too. I miss the old days of Tom Clancy games. SOCOM, Full Spectrum Warrior, the Conflict series, Brothers in Arms, etc. Although, there’s a game on Steam called Ready or Not that’s similar to old-school Rainbow Six, except you’re part of a SWAT team, rather than in the military.
I was actually giggling
I understand the point, but allowing poor ports to bring down a game's total score, and therefore lower on the list, is really not a good way to do this. If a port specifically is worse than the others, then it should have it's own spot, regardless if "the game is essentially the same". Multiple times did a game get put lower on the list because "Sony messed up" (which isn't even true, Sony had jack to do with the ports), which I think is unfair to the point of a list like this.
Its a shame that the PSP didnt get better Tom Clancy games.

I wanna be honest; I keep watching and waiting for a cool episode, that I can share with friends, but your content over the past year or so has become very scripted and feels unfamiliar with the headlines it chases. The vocal deliveries feel repetative, with stacked grating inflections, and I feel the writing has lost some of its heart. I may have missed some of your new stuff, and I can understand these lists can pull in the views, but I would love to see you all do more original stuff and make more meaningful lists. Really enjoy your WGE LPs and think you should keep going with Main Menu-like show, and continue developing other fun ideas like that. Sorry, just wanted to give some thoughts. I don't know what a Tom Classy is.
