Ubisoft's latest release schedule sees the publisher readying five titles for the European PS3 launch, more than half of them labeled with the esteemed Tom Clancy name. The cherished children's author will see some of his more popular works come to life in Rainbow Six: Vegas (which sees the six Color Rangers fight the addictive nature of gambling), Splinter Cell: Double Agent and the latest entry in the Ghost Recon franchise. The last is said to feature vastly improved ghost capturing mechanics.The rest of Ubi's launch lineup is comprised of Blazing Angels and a game you've never even heard of, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It seems all good things really do come to those who wait.

Since when was Clancy considered strictly a "children's author"? Rainbow Six was the only book that I knew of that he has made into a game. That was only one novel and had nothing to do with Vegas.

Saw at least 20 sitting on the floor in a BB in Des Moines. First time I had seen them. Thought about buying one just because, but decided to pass. Still have yet to find Wii's for my Grandparents and parents-in-law, as well as final 2 nunchucks for myself.

Yes, they are already out on the 360, but despite of what many here might think, not everyone has a 360. If you went directly to the PS3 (no, I don't know why you'd skip the amazing 360, but that's not my point) there are plenty of awesome games coming for the PS3 in the next 6 months. And now that all consoles are out, titles will likely release simultaneously, like 'GRAW 2.'
Speaking of coming out late and on the 'other system,' has anyone played Splinter Cell: Double Agent on the Wii? I wonder if that's any good...
Slipstream, you're getting close to being nominated for the 'Sometimes Needs The Gag Explained To Him 2007' award. Also, the 'improved ghost capturing mechanics' are actually in G.B.A.W. 2, (Ghost-Buster Advanced Warlockfighter 2), not GRAW2.

It's apparently quite horrible, like all Wii multiplatform ports so far with the exception of Rayman (but that's not a real game):
