    Impeccable timing on the release.

    Offered so much, yet delivered so little. Got into the game, thought "this is fun"... bit of sniping, what more could you want. Was a bit disappointed that I couldn't move around the map myself... well, it *is* only an arcade port after all. Finished the first mission on the first go, got to the map... oh yeah, there are a a few missions here on stage 1. Hang on... isn't there any other stages? Is that *all* the missions that there are? You're kidding! $109 for this??? No wonder they're shipping the first game with it. What a rip-off! Took it back to the store and took advantage of their superb "returns" policy. Now deep in the throes of Grand Theft Auto - Vice City. In short - the only exceptional thing about it is how ordinary it is. Expand

    Everyone bitches about the fact that this game doesn't come with a workable (..or honking) sniper rifle, alright fine, it should have come with one but IT DOESN'T and personally, I think it adds to the challenge of popping terrorists in the head, which I find rewarding and I find this game fun to play and have played it for hours on end without tiring.

    A cookie cutter light-gun game offering little to nothing more than the content of the first two games.
  2. The great physical satisfaction from the arcade game is lost without the honking-big sniper rifle. [Dec 2002, p.60]
  3. Shame that the outdated graphics, effective-but-simplistic (i.e. recycled) sound effects and still-awkward Dual Shock 2 control relegate Silent Scope 3 to the realm of rental material.
