Well, there is nothing strange about me disliking Morrowind: I find that the game has no story. But this is not a Morrowind discussion thread so I'll speak about other things.
About Splinter Cell: Sadly the Xbox version doesn't have a save-anytime function which is often frustrating. For example, in one mission you have to use your heat-goggles to enter the code on the keypad: the enemies do not wear gloves and since the room temperature is cool, you can see the heat signals on the keypad for a limited time after it has been entered. The problem is that you find but three of four digits for the code... Now if you have to get past some guards to try the combination for six-seven times, it might grow on you. Thank god for Gamefaqs.
