i played the hell out of this game back then on ps2,

so mya question how good are these keyboard settings?

and is it easy to play coop / server still up?

lol this version is about 100x better than the crappy PS2 version. No it's not easy to play coop, you need to create a virtual LAN in in order for two players to play together. The servers for this game were shut down in 2016 across all platforms.


Keyboard settings are fine, though I prefer using my controller still. There's ways to get full controller support in game, just check the guides

The PS2 versions were never better than the PC versions. I have played every version on every platform.

PS2 version was limited significantly by its hardware, so the level layouts were altered to feature less detail, and were no longer connected seamlessly. A good example is the Defense ministry, which on PS2, splits the area at the beginning and the area with the cooks with a loading screen through a ventilation shaft.

The PC/Xbox version however, integrates both scenes together, and players need to climb along a ledge high above the courtyard.



The PS2 version came out later for both Splinter Cell 1 and Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow, so they added in a few exclusive missions to try and sell the game. But these missions weren't all that memorable and added nothing to the experience.



Chaos Theory was the first main entry to launch on PS2 at the same time as the Xbox/PC version, and because of its ambitious visual design, the visuals were a massive step down... Ubisoft shanghai had to fake a lot of the brick textures and reduced the level complexity a great deal to make it functional on the PS2, and the spyvsmerc mode was a sloppy port of pandora tomorrow, rather than the cool new updated version on the Xbox/PC.



Trust me.. Chaos Theory on PC/Xbox is like an entirely new, MUCH BETTER game than the PS2 copy.
