At E3 last year, Microsoft announced that they managed to nab the rights to have the next installment of the stealth/spy franchise Splinter Cell, exclusively for the Xbox 360 and Games for Windows Platform.
A European magazine, "Pelaaja," managed to get itself an exclusive with the first details and concept art of the next Sam Fisher adventure, titled Splinter Cell: Conviction. While it's not in English, and we don't have the copy in our hands, a member on NeoGaf provides AchievementJunkie with a translation of some of the plot details:

They say that at the beginning of the game San learns that Anna Grimsdottir is in danger so Sam joins Third Echelon again in order to help. However, Third Echelon is not what it used to be and in the first mission Sam gets false info and the wrong equipment, while his bosses are bickering amongst themselves about procedures, authority and such. Then Sam finds out that the threat to Anna comes from within the Third Echelon, quits and becomes a fugitive.Sounds -- well, a lot like the standard Splinter Cell game, and judging by the pictures (click "Read more..." to see for yourself) it looks like the series is sticking with the daytime environments found in last year's Splinter Cell: Double Agent.
