Splinter Cell: Conviction delayed. Again.

This is getting ridiculous.

Splinter Cell: Conviction, originally scheduled for release in November…of 2007…has been delayed again. The game is now expected to hit stores sometime in April 2010.

Let’s take a journey back in time shall we? After being officially unveiled in early 2007, Conviction was put on “indefinite hold” in May of 2008. For months not one screenshot or video of the title was released, and when the similar Assassin’s Creed hit shelves — the game’s future looked bleakThen came E3, and the game was unveiled with a new gameplay system and a look ( READ: Sam Fisher was no longer emo). It was then announced that the game would launch in late February.
