Could Splinter Cell work as an open-world sandbox wherein Sam Fisher can ply his deadly trade? Absolutely, epsecially if Ubisoft looks at one other game that mastered the art of stealth, options and massive open areas to explore.

According to the developers, the episodic remake of the iconic JRPG will have far more content than the original version of the game.

Hitman 2 launches on November 13 with every stage completed and thrown into one bundle, much to the joy of fans who skipped the first game because of its downloadable nature. An episodic structure that seems to have been the original design goal, according to leaked PSN trophies.

Games developer Hideo Kojima sees episodic games as the future of the industry, but his next project Death Stranding won't follow that model.

The devs behind Resident Evil: Revelations are quite keen to have another go with the sub-series that made the franchise scary again.

Hitman might be sneaking out of the shadows in pieces, but some of its new features do sound rather innovative.

The Hitman Beta showed a lot of promised for a game that seems to be looking back that the series' roots, making for some compelling sandbox gameplay.

Seems like there's a legitimate reasona s to why Square Enix seems so confused with what to do with all its IP, and it comes down to a question of faith in consoles.
