Buried underneath all the E3 hoopla last week was an Ubisoft announcement nailing down the release dates for the PlayStation 2 and GameCube editions of Tom Clancy"s Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow. In America, the Sony console version of the game will ship on June 18, with the Nintendo edition arrives on July 1. In Europe, the two games will arrive on June 10 and July 2, respectively.
Although delayed from their original ship dates, both versions of the game will now come with exclusive content not found in the Xbox or PC versions. Both will feature a new mission deep in the Indonesian jungle, alternate pathways in revisited missions, and post-mission statistics and scoring. Both will also have new booby trap gameplay, which will allow players to defuse explosive devices with the controller the much like they pick locks.
