sorry to keep U waitin':P but this is the right time to answer this guestion just in front off premiere of MGS4:GoTP MGS never had the best graphics and the best gameplay, spliter cell allways had better moves and tenchu too but neither of this games has soo EXELENT story! MGS got the best story ever! U actually live this game not only play. So the answer is simple.. MGS RULES!

Splinter Cell is, on my opinion, better. It has better realism than MGS ( 2 or 3 shots could kill you), unlike in MGS. And the gadgets are more to date unlike MGS, its a little bit too futuristic.

But splinter cell isn't that perfect. The lightings are somewhat dim (unlike in real life a light bulb can lit up a whole room. That's the downside of splinter Cell unlike MGS, there are no dark places to simply avoid detection and you can wal up to your enemy like they can't even hear you. I mean I kept running back and fort when the enemy was facing the other way and it got me thinking; "Is this guy tone deaf?"

Conclusion: Splinter cell beats MGS in realism. MGS is just a bit too arcade lacking realism on some parts.

Splinter cell: Realistic MGS: too arcade like

I think its very close but metal gear solid wins it as it is more realistic the way he heals himself and the way he scares the Guards with the magazine it's so funny.

Personally, I really only liked the original Metal Gear Solid for PS1, I really liked it. I also like the Splinter Cell games too. I have only playe half of Pandora tomorrow though. When I get around to it I will finish it. Chaos Theroy sounds good too.

its close
Splinter Cell Or Metal Gear Solid?

I have found that splintercell 1 was a fun game, although not getting the sc 20k until a late level bugged me, but it also kept the game fresh. And I kinda skipped over pandora tomorrow because I didnt realy see it in stores around where I live. Eventualy though I picked up chaos theory and honestly I have never had so much fun loading a save point and killing people all different ways, perhaps you may stab them, break there neck, or just simply snipe them in the head.
Mgs is also a nice game, I played mgs 1 when it was a new game, and I found it to be quite nice, then came mgs 2, still had alot of fun with it, I must admit the games did have nice story lines, and the weapons choices, mmm, mmm good, in splintercell 1 you got your pistol and sc 20k, it was ampted up a bit in chaos theory when they added attachments like shotgun, forgrip, sniper rifle, and grenade launcher but it was still the same gun. In mgs you got ak's dragonovs, m16, rpg's, socom pistols, the list goes on and on, and I love guns so it was a nice treet, the only problem is that when it came out on the psp it started with a great game, portable ops, and then they realy fricked up with mgs acid, because you would have to be on acid to enjoy a card battleing mgs game,and then portable ops + just didnt have a nice story line to back it up, and in both portable ops games, the mass amount of team members kinda lost the personal feelings for the characters, if they died, you just captured a new one,
Well all in all, I would have to say both are great titles, but personaly, even though mgs has great weapons and nice story lines, the camera ruins it for me, splintercell wins because of the camera, and the awsome ways to eliminate your enemies
