\nSplinter Cell: Conviction got its first paid DLC with the Insurgency Pack a few weeks back. I was luck enough to win a copy from Ubisoft’s Twitter account. Normally it is $10 (800 Points). It contains 4 new maps for the deniable ops game modes and 8 new achievements. The maps are fairly large. Each one has three sections for Hunter\/Infiltration mode with 12 enemies per section.\u00a0 So, less areas but more enemies per area than the maps that game with the game.\u00a0 I liked this style of map layout because the size let me find multiple strategies for each level.\u00a0 I was able to get all of the levels completed on Realistic mode in Hunter by myself, but one of the achievements does require co-op play so I’ll need to go back for that one.\u00a0 All the other achievements I got solo.<\/p>\n

While I has a lot of fun with these new maps it is hard for me to recommend people get them for $10.\u00a0 If they were $5 it would be a must buy, but $2.50 a map is a little much unless you plan to play them over and over with friends. I tried playing them co-op a few times with anyone playing on Live at the time and I never did find anyone else playing Hunter mode on Realistic.\u00a0 Maybe that was because of the times I played, but it was a tad frustrating.\u00a0 I had a lot of fun with the Splinter Cell: Conviction Insurgency Pack and if it is ever on sale I would recommend picking it up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
