Splinter Cell: Blacklist set for E3 reveal?

Ubisoft is tipped to announce its new Splinter Cell game at E3 next week, and rumours suggest the title will be a called Splinter Cell: Black List.

It's reportedly in line for a January 2013 release on Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii U.

A NeoGAF poster claiming to have seen a promo for the game says Sam Fisher "is looking good as always with no grey hair, full body suit, and his mighty night goggles, including a serious look on his face".

The forumite goes on to state that Black List is a direct sequel to 2010's Splinter Cell Conviction, and that the "plot will be based on his enemies targeted as Blacklist."

In March, Ubisoft Toronto boss and former -Assassin's Creed producer Jade Raymond told CVG of the new Splinter Cell: "It will have all of the action flick elements for sure, but we're trying to also explore something a little bit more interesting that is actually one of the themes that's at the root of the franchise historically, but never has been surfaced so much."

Most likely a rental. Conviction was ok but nothing special. Michael Ironside is still very cool as the voice of Fisher though
