I know some people who keep saying time after time for almost a decade that Ubisoft surely must be working on a new Splinter Cell, and that at any point they'll be saying something about it.

Well, they've been working on a new Splinter Cell, and they've finally said something about it.

Between this and the remake and the VR thing, I hope they're happy. YOU ASKED FOR THIS

The Sandman has had a lot of success with the audio adaptation, so I don't think the idea of making modern radio plays is bad. I *do* think the idea of making a radio play of Splinter Cell is bad.
Metal Gear? Now that I could seehear.

And somebody yelling "Snake!!!" with no response at every episode cliffhanger.

A lot of the better audiobooks are basically radio plays with either full casts or one or two talented voice actors doing all the characters. Considering that Audible's pricing model is apparently successful audiobooks must be doing pretty decent business right now.

Don't be fooled by all the fancy marketing, Horlick's Drink Powder is just cocaine.

It's not just cocaine. It's pretty well cut.
