could have been great... but...

User Rating: 6 | Sniper Elite V2 PC
the game is some what entertaining the first few kills. great kill cam, that shows bullet penetration, with organ/bone distruction. amazing way of awarding user with satisfying visual outcome. great sound effects.

then , after mission or two, you realize that there is no much of a chalenge getting head shots, hitting moving targets. no chalenge what so ever, destroying tanks!!! wait, did i mention destroying tanks with sniper rifle????!!!! i guess its possible ones in a blue moon... but how about destroying 40 tanks in a few hours? man, who need bazookas when you have a sniper rifle. what where they thinking??????

also, sniper kills should be somewhat chalenging, with some sort of skill. then, after you kill count reaches 100s, the games looses its gem. all you do is aim to the head, and get kill after kill... most to the head.

now i ask myself a question..... why not make the game with same graphics, same engine, same weapons... even with same stupid ai. then get rid of 70% of enemy forces. make every mission stealth oriented, with a few targets per mission. and the most important - throw away tanks.
and maybe we would have a sniper game.

to me, the best sniper mission was in call of duty 4, in chernobil. all you had to do is kill 4-5 enemies before you reach the target. and then have a hell of a chase to the helicopter.

this game was simply overdone, for triger happy users.

finished it, killed some time... will never play it again.

i still finished the game
