Your friend probably hasn't played the older ones. The first one, Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory are great. After that it becomes shit.
Blacklist was "okay" if you play it on the highest difficulty and try to ghost everything with most of the handholding off.
Don't go in expecting Splinter Cell though. Ironside isn't Sam, Sam looks like he went through a timemachine and lost 20 years and redhead chick who's name I always forget looks like a huge cunt with a manjaw. You also have Contravious Kang butting into the story trying to be helpful, but only managing to look like a douchebag.
They should have just gotten a new recruit or some shit and have Fisher step in as a mentor or some shit. Would have made for a better story than what we got instead.
