Soundtrack was epic on this. Really an amazing collection of music.

Geez, this game. I remember completing the whole game on the hardest difficulty without being seen, knocking anyone out, or using any kind of "disposable" gadgets, that IRL would be discovered after I left (noise makers, remote cams, etc). A perfect ghost run, all the way through. The only people I ever touched was the guard atop the lighthouse because he was unavoidable, and the "omgbetrayal" guy.
That god damn room in the bathouse was torture. If you played that level, you know which one I mean.

Chaos Theory is an amazing game and for me, the best Splinter Cell game.
I also liked Blacklist a lot but I had a problem with the mouse+keyboard controls because two actions shared a button and you couldn't rebind them. That was solved with a hacked settings file. But last time I played it I had hard crashes, too. And then you have to restart the whole mission.

Although Chaos Theory doesn't achieve the same level of complexity and freedom as Thief 1/2, it is my favourite stealth game. Quality level design, proper environmental variety with the right balance of exploration and linearity, plenty of different approaches (an improvement over the previous titles, also in terms of gadgets), the consistently dripping atmosphere, superb visuals and the epic soundtrack. Good old times, back when Ubi wasn't a dumpster fire of a company.

There was some forum/database issue back in ~2004 and all older posts got deleted, and the registration date of everyone who joined before 2004 or 2005 got reset to 1970. I've been lurking here since 2002 I think

To get this game running was a super pain in the hairy ass. Some amateurs folded and bought it but the crackmen found a way via USB drive and shit.
It was the Starforce 3 era. Now we got the Denuvo clone but that one has already been destroyed as well.

Different times, adventure games like Monkey Island used to be hard because if you wanna finish a hard adventure game you need to spend some time on the hotline  and that was extra revenue for the company.
Now no one uses the land phone anymore plus you have walkthroughs on the internet and the only hotlines we still have are erotic and sexy.

I found a fix for this, I posted it in the Blacklist thread. I recommend the game to SC fans!

Even knocked out all the armed guards at the bathhouse (28 guards, 3 civilians) but this stage broke my 100% rating streak, got identified as an intruder three times. You'll get identified in the vent (it's buggy) and also during the firefight its entirely random. Seoul Streets are also pretty hard to ghost or otherwise 100% if you don't be careful. You can pick up any undamaged gadgets you left behind btw. It won't count towards completion but for peace of mind it's possible.
