So, we all know about Metal Gear, right? That one Stealth Game, yeah. But, something's been bugging me. The only other Stealth Game I can instantly think of is Splinter Cell, and my Brother's roomie said there was also Mission Impossible for the NES.
Do you know of any other Stealth Action games?
None realy come to mind that are as good as the two you mentioned.
The fact that any come to mind at all is good.Originally Posted by Yu-Yevon
Why not tell me what they are?
Every single game since MGS has had at least one stealth mission though. My brother is playing a skating game and apparently is stuck on a stealth mission.
People don't seem to realise that the beauty of MGS was that while stealth helped, it wasn't vital. You'd kick yourself for being discovered, but you could still hold your own against the guards and that was what made it fun. None of this OH NO SPOTTED YOU FAIL bull.
Theres plenty of stealth games out there, how you can only name Metal Gear and Splinter Cell? Tenchu, Hitman, Beyond Good and Evil, Thief, Manhunt, Sly Cooper and even Deus Ex to a certain extent are all stealth games, the good ones anyway.
And nearly 70% of games out there will have certain stealth levels or stages, as Psychotic pointed out.
I'm sure if I thought harder I could've thought of those. I know of all of them. I'm surprised I could only think of those two.
About MGS playing, though, whenever I got caught I'd just rid of the guy that saw me, run, and hide. >_> I always got killed if I dared stay and fight.
The Tenchu series sprung to mind for me. The original game placed great emphasis on stealth, and was actually released before MGS came along and made stealth gameplay popular. In terms of more high-profile titles, the Hitman series probably counts, and although I haven't played Assassin's Creed I think I'm right in saying that avoiding detection is a priority there.
"The most important and recognize player in the history of the country."
Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
Avoiding detection is a priority in Assassin's Creed, but from what I hear, actually hiding from someone only comes into play if you do something stupid like punch a knight in the face.
I love Hitman. I've played some levels so many times that I can take out the targets only and leave without being spotted.
Then I can go the other route and kill everyone without dying!

Castle Wolfenstein says hi.
Thief is an excellent stealth series. Basically Splinter Cell ripped off most of the gameplay ideas that it features from the original two games.
You try fighting the unlimited supply of soldiers that rush you when you get spotted on MGS1. Sometimes it was better to just die like a dog than to run and hide, losing half your rations in the process.

I have tried fighting them. God knows my 12 year old self preferred doing that than to actually sneak past them. I am not a pussy and I know how to use a FAMAS.
Unless you're playing on Extreme or something but god knows that's your own fault for being a masochist.
But...it's impossible to win. They will keep coming until you go out of alert mode (ie hiding)!
