This game holds a special place in my heart. It may not be the best Splinter Cell in terms of gameplay and it has for sure many technical flaws and some questionable game design elements, due to the release of the game being rushed, but I love it.
And first of all I really loved the double agent concept and the different main choices having impactful consequences on some of the characters and on the story, that brought a great extra layer of tension to the traditional, great and unique Splinter Cell gameplay. I honestly rarely felt so much tension in a game and it's unique to Double Agent in the series, and even in the entire stealth genre. I think that's what made me love this game so much. Besides I consider its soundtrack and story as the best ones in the entire series, and the Shanghai mission is part of my top 5 favorite missions of the whole franchise.
And even if this game lacks polish and was released too early, it was still innovative gameplay-wise and introduced some new interesting features and gadgets like the ability to swim, takedowns from a corner, the inverted rappel through the winch, the glass cutter, the ultrasonic emitter, the safe-cracking minigame, the ability to hide under a truck or a desk,... If the devs had the opportunity to properly implement these mechanics and features, I'm sure this would have been the ultimate Splinter Cell game !
I've always dreamed of Ubisoft finally patching this game and fixing it once and for all because this game gets so much ignorance, rejection and bad reviews because of its poor optimization. Sadly I know they'll never do this, so hopefully we can have it on GOG with the patches, the fixes and the widescreen resolutions included.
One case of devs making different games with the same name. For the sake of closure and preservation, "Version 2" as its called must come to PC... And I suppose a fixed version of the flagship version would be nice.

Dead Rising 2: Case WestThe game features Frank West, the main character from the first Dead Rising game, and serves as the canon Overtime Mode of Dead Rising 2, with Frank teaming up with Chuck to further investigate the link between Phenotrans and the Fortune City zombie outbreak, and find proof that clears Chuck of any wrongdoing.
The story follows on from Ending A of the main game, with Frank rescuing Chuck from the elevator. Frank was going to meet Rebecca Chang to investigate a Phenotrans facility west of Fortune City, but learns from Chuck that she was killed by Phenotrans mole Sullivan. Although initially suspicious of Chuck because of the media reports blaming him for the Fortune City outbreak, Frank lets the motocross star come with him to find proof that Phenotrans was behind the outbreak.
Case West includes cooperative play for two players, with each taking control of one of the two characters. The episode features new challenges, enemies, items, combo weapons.
