    The game play is satisfying and does keep up with an entertaining ride as a Sniper. While there is multiplayer, it did not seem to be part of the primary design of the game. It’s almost an afterthought to the blast of a single player experience.

    With its visuals, the shallow storyline, its limited size and gameplay failures, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 proves that games being delayed several times often show deficiencies in quality, which results in an unexpectedly low fun factor. The chance to surpass its predecessor unfortunately hasn't been taken.

    The short campaign is best played in small doses, since its action otherwise rings a bit repetitive. Most frustrating, though, is the broken multiplayer mode, which only features two maps and one mode anyway, severely diminishing the title’s replay value.

    Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 is like a bargain at the dodgy used car dealer around the corner.

    Sniper 2 is a big disappointment. It's hard to hide mixed (at best!) feelings, after all these grand and confident announcements, after the tales of a big budget and promises of a new quality based on CryEngine 3. Still - there is fun in there somewhere. You can enjoy being thrown into exotic places, completing some of the tougher challenges and taking some really spectacular shots. Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 can appeal to enthusiasts of the sniper profession, but they have to accept all the flaws and the fact that last year's Sniper Elite V2 is a much better game.

    The technical aspects are all below medium. When will the sniper shooter sub-genre catch a break? [May 2013]

    Ghost Warrior 2 is just a series of corridors and the same typical shooting levels we've seen millions of times, only with no inspiration whatsoever.

    It seems to me, as if all of those '0' opinion givers were Sniper V2 fanboys. Sure, SGW2 has it's flaws but it's nowhere close to '0'. TheyIt seems to me, as if all of those '0' opinion givers were Sniper V2 fanboys. Sure, SGW2 has it's flaws but it's nowhere close to '0'. They say that haters gonna hate. I just want everyone interested to know that this game is worth its price. There are minor bugs, graphics could be better, and campaign is quite linear, but usually there is more than 1 path to choose. Besides, imho linear is not bad if provides sufficient amount of fun. Movies are linear and yet everyone watches them. Anyway, the game is worth a shot if you're looking for some solid sniping experience. Anything left to hope for is some DLC to expand the multiplayer part (which is still not bad atm). I'd give the game 7,5-8/10 but I'm giving 10 to counter those '0' haters. Cheers~! Expand

Obviously the graphics and AI have improved tremendously. Playing sniper is harder than playing a simple soldier. Sure there are some cons such as in multiplayer, there are few maps. But it's so nice that the advantages outweigh. Expand

    Not a bad game a bit short, very linear. But the story is OK and game play smooth and intuitive.

    Would have been better if lean/peak was available and ability to pick up weapons from dead guys. Yes, this would potentially turn this into an FPS, but would also enhance the game. What is the point on facing hordes of enemy charging at you and not being able to pick up the Tavor next to you and level them down?!!!

    Maybe there is scope (no pun intended) for a sniper-oriented CoD clone...

    Good effort!

    What is the point in collecting secrets if they have no additional info... I can't believe i have played the most scripted game ever. I amWhat is the point in collecting secrets if they have no additional info... I can't believe i have played the most scripted game ever. I am wondering if there was actually someone who agreed on this design and mission flow. I felt insulted by this game with every bullet fired, every step i took. I immediatly lost interest in the story after mission 1. I am frustrated that i am playing something simmilar to a game on rails. There is little to no logic in the entire gameplay. If these are todays designers then we have a problem. How could anyone agree to this? Is someone actually proud after seeing this in the stores? The stealth in the game is ridiculous. I had fun with the music and i liked the level design, but the gameplay itself is a shame. If you really want to waste time and shoot your way to the end while someone holds your hand, then you should get this game when it is on sale. Expand

    Utter. Garbage.

    Corridor shooter, with sniper rifle. What is the point? Sniper game should have sandbox style missions. But no, you are forced to walk in a corridor handheld, and take out idiot AI enemies. Avoid at all costs. Sniper Elite 2 is better.
