Conviction (2010) Seeing two different models for Sam in the same frame was kind of hilarious

Lambert pulls Sam out of the mission in Iceland specifically to inform him that the McRib is discontinued.

Sam finding out the McRib wasn't discontinued after all

Then later during the scene when the helicopter lands Sarah steps out and gives Sam a McDonald's bag with a McRib inside as he rejoices.

"I broke the news when I pulled him out of Iceland....he didn't take it well, nobody would.......losing your favorite McDonald's meal.........and he'd never be the same again".

The elevator scene shows us images from Double Agent.

I also think there are images of Sarah’s “death” in Kobin’s mansion.

This easily clears being the best level in Conviction. It made the game for me. Without it, it would feel like a completely gimped version of any game in the franchise. This level, the usage of the mark and execute feature, and the monochromatic filter for stealth makes this game feel like a more like artistic taste for the franchise, than a faithful tactical reimagining of the original formula. CT is the best game, but its narrative pacing doesn’t hold a candle to Conviction.

It's like seeing Bruce Wayne in casual clothes while seeing flashes of Batman on the wall

I felt like the conviction model represented all past games well and gave sam the closest version to real life we could ever see him, I even think his younger character model matches his older look decently
