I'll admit that it may be ignorance of the material, but something about Ubisoft's Tom Clancy games really creeps me out. Probably that whole fetishism of the military-industrial complex thing. Supposedly a really good stealth action game, but sans the self-referential goofiness of the Metal Gear series, I don't see anything on the surface level to draw me in.
But that doesn't matter. What matters is that this game has an ridiculously bad Japanese translation. "Return to Title Screen" becomes "Return to Starting Time", "Confirm" becomes "Choice", and all the story dialogue is so literal that I can hardly imagine the actors speaking it with a straight face.
