Too old for this sh**?

Ubisoft have had one hell of an E3 showing, most notably with their announcements of Watch Dogs and Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

As you may have previously read here, I wasn’t too happy with the axing of Sam Fisher‘s charismatic voice actor Michael Ironside.

Being a massive fan of the franchise since day 1 of the first title, I anxiously (but professionally) grilled our presenter of the game after our behind-closed-doors presentation at E3 2012.

The answer is reasonable, but fans still may not be happy.
