In Sniper Elite, players assume the role of an American sniper, disguised as a German soldier and dropped into war torn 1945 Berlin by the American OSS to gather intelligence on the top-secret German Atomic research. If his mission fails, control of the world's Atomic technology will fall into the hands of Stalin and the Soviet Army, throwing the world's political climate into chaos.

If his mission fails, control of the world's Atomic technology will fall into the hands of Stalin and the Soviet Army, throwing the world's political climate into chaos. In the undercover mission, players utilize their sniper training to gain access to key positions by taking out machine guns, armored vehicles, guard posts and sentries through stealth and pinpoint accuracy. Like a true sniper, players must follow their wits and instincts and utilize both first and third-person perspectives to negotiate through 28 open-ended levels in war-torn Berlin. In taking aim at enemy soldiers, players need to consider gravity, wind speed, heart rate, breathing and posture to successfully hit their target in one of the most authentic sniping mechanics ever devised. Players can even take up the fight or go head-to-head with a friend in the cooperative or competitive offline play modes, or even engage in a game of worldwide cat-and-mouse with up to eight players online.

"Only the best of the best will see the final missions in Sniper Elite mode, but for the rest of us, Rebellion has created a remarkable, beautifully brutal WWII game that’s smarter than the usual fodder lining game store shelves." ... Read full review

Highly underrated game. This is a first class shooter and probably the most realistic one ever. Tired of walking godlike through though other Highly underrated game. This is a first class shooter and probably the most realistic one ever. Tired of walking godlike through though other games with all your armor/shields/suits providing you with all but immunity while your single shots take out legions of super cool but super weak opponents? Well in Sniper Elite a bullet will kill you and opponents won't just stand there waiting to be fragged. In this game you better keep your head down, move carefully, and make sure that your shots are carefully aimed, or you're toast and quickly so. Most of the bad reviews here are from kids who are used to blasting there way through hordes of 100 foot aliens without getting scratched. For them it is very frustrating when an enemy who you can see perfectly can also see you and who can fire their weapon just as accurately as you. And yes, if you fire a rifle, it can actually be heard from a mile away. And yes, you will be hunted down and killed if they can find you. The idea that a single soldier should easily be able to wade through a few dozen enemy soldiers every time is just a joke. Snipers in war have some of the highest casualty rates and so will you when you play this game, which I think is a good thing. The situation with some of the complainers here reminds me of paintball, where all the kiddies come out thinking they will be Rambo and then get pissy when they get taken out quickly over and over again. Anyway, this is a great game, I rank it right up there with Crysis as one of the best FPS sniper games ever. Highly recommended for those willing to face the realistically bad odds of a war zone.

I bought this game, thinking that it would be as good as Sniper: Ghost Warrior. I wasn't disappointed. In fact, the story was much better inI bought this game, thinking that it would be as good as Sniper: Ghost Warrior. I wasn't disappointed. In fact, the story was much better in Sniper Elite. My only problem was that changing weapons was sort of cumbersome, especially when trying to move from the Sniper mode to close combat with machine guns. Also, the age of the game showed. Things have come a long way in the last two years (not always for the better). Expand

All round a good shot at a sniper game - excuse the pun The bullet physics are definitely very well done but the use of other weapons is All round a good shot at a sniper game - excuse the pun The bullet physics are definitely very well done but the use of other weapons is quite poor. The handling of the non-scoped weapons is quite difficult barring the grenade throwing which is marvellous. It's amazing just how much the addition of right clicking to throw as opposed to left releasing to throw improves the action. All in all, despite it's minor flaws/limitations - which all games have - this is one of my favourite games which is providing me with some very memorable moments. Let's hope Sniper Elite 2 extends the appeal! Expand

Well, so I passed this game and breathed a sigh of relief. I played the game on the most minimal difficulty, but this did not change the fact that the bots are immense here. In general, I had a good opinion about the game, of course, there were difficulties in the form: "I don't know where to go", "missions that were too long", "how? HOW !? How did he kill me?", Etc. Plot: It's not bad. When I first got acquainted with the game, I thought it would be a typical shooting range, but no, the topic of nuclear weapons and all this secrecy is pretty well recreated as for me. Gameplay and graphics: not bad for 2005 either. There are many types of weapons in the game: from bazooka to stretching. I also have no complaints about the schedule, for 2005 everything was done quite well. Most of all I would like to emphasize the atmosphere in this game (especially the 1st mission when it is raining and around the fighting). And I didn't like that the missions are too long for me (bring that, blow that, then come back, kill this and everything in this regard...)

Bottom line: a good game about World War II with an unusual plot for such games, I advise you to go through.

Il gameplay di questo gioco e noioso e ripetitivo, se usi il mitra ti sente un intero pianeta.
