Splinter Cell: Conviction Perhaps Not All That Exclusive After All.

Speaking with Videogamer.com, Ubisoft Montreal CEO Yannis Mallat claimed "there is always hope" of Splinter Cell: Conviction launching on the PS3. It's an unusual phrase, because Ubisoft have been adamant Splinter Cell is launching exclusively on the XBOX 360 for numerous reasons regarding the history of the franchise. The wording of this quote certainly makes it sound like they'd like to put the game on the PS3, and thus raises the questions of why they aren't from the get-go?

Still, it's exciting to hear such positive words. With the game unlikely to launch on PS3 alongside the XBOX 360 version early next year, we'll just have to cross our fingers for an updated version further down the line. That'd be fine by us.
