Chris Watters draws a bead on Sniper Elite V2 and squeezes the trigger in this video review.

played this on my PC, took just a bit less than 6 hours to complete.
no reason whatsoever to call this game "sniper". no elements of stealthiness or planned movement in it. just dash and kill.
the health regeneration mechanism, more common in console games, just makes this a no brainer. you run, watch where the bullets come from and aim for that spot without a real worry about being shot.
and even if this game didn't sport health regeneration, it wouldn't have changed for the better because the enemies layout is undoubtedly not premeditated. it seems as though they just threw them around without considering anything actually.
I didn't even know you could stealth kill someone with your hands or mount a turrent. that's how broken it is!
not worth the money.
Really fun game; deserves a 7-8. The only hindering is the dumb AI, otherwise the game is a great tactical stealth shooter. I guess Rebellion didn't pay enough to get a high score?
@tic-tac-man8 its not supposed to be black ops. There was no m16, and this games story is superior to black ops
Well, if the game featured some quick-time-button-smashing-movie like moments, an M16, exploding RC car, a flashbang and some over-produced cutscenes it would get a 9.
1 Like Currently playing it on PS3. Very challenging on Sniper Elite level. Kill cams are awesome and never get old. The stealth required seems accurate. Graphics could be better but are not an eyesore. Have not seen any of this "re-spawning" of enemies the reviewer talks about. You clear an area and it stays cleared. Only problem I have with the game is as it is a stealth game, it sometimes takes quite a while to get to check points and the game requires you to complete the level before closing out the game or you start back at the beginning of the level next time you play. Overall I would give it a 7.5. I haven't played the online yet so this is only based on the SP.
i am so tired of these people replaceing the german flag it is so bad in some games it looks like your fighting in the Vatican
I like this game very much, the graphic is very nice and details. but I'm so sorry, I can't play it well, because the specification so high and the big size for my hard drive.
The game's sniper mechanic was good, but I find the lack of narrative depth and Karl Fairburne's hammy characterization a little bummed out.
i love it man..i love the army games in third person, i simply love em, majority of army games is in firs person shooter, i love this game cause its was exactly what i needed, a good army game in third person shooting
1 Like This game. man I just loved it. All of those planning, observation and finally the kill, I love it !
1 Like @AloeVera4 normally, i'd agree with you wholeheartedly, but i bought this and absolutely enjoys the campaign. give it a chance if you like WW2 games.
@ferntfactorI will....I bitch and complain about TPS...but I've begrudgingly purchased a few of them...and have enjoyed some. Thanks
Been playing the game for several days now. I encourage the higher difficulty of the game because it does make the game feel more like a sniper game. And as far as sniper games are concerned in my opinion Sniper Elite V2 sets a great benchmark for the genre.
1 Like Given the review, I see nothing wrong with the 6 score. 6-7 sounds fair to me. I think this comment section is the product of a past in which games were given high scores whether or not they deserved them. We are so used to the fact that high scores were handed out that when a site decides to use the rest of its scale people cry foul.
If the review sounds positive, you can get over the negatives and think you'll enjoy the game, the score should not factor into your purchasing decision. Hell, Watters even said as much in his review.
3 Like its to dam linear for a sniper hunter and please gamespot let us check spell in the comment section cos not all are burn in english cuntys
2 Like so far so good, i am enjoying every second of it, however the enemies are really DUMB! no real challenge, and i didn't like how my char walks, uncool walking process :Pstill good, fun game ;)
2 Like Its a great game, do wonder why such a low rating? I got it fer my PC, a PS3 version should account fer low heat synch on the fans fer sure!Cool game all in all, a pristine 8 atleast eh? :D :)
2 Like I am Downloading the hope It is off the rack...........I haven't viewed the trailer also I am seeing it ..........
1 Like After you catch on to the mechanics of the game - namely using the E key for some nice Max Payne slow-mo kills, the game becomes very enjoyable. I've started over again several times as I got better at things. I eventually found that playing on Highest Difficulty was the only way to go. Besides it seems to give you a lot more bad guys to kill ... and I luvs killing those Nazi bastards !!
6 Like misleading review but that doesnt suprise me anymore you suck at reviewing. Game is very good. Didnt Rebellion pay you enough gamespot?
1 Like After watching the review and reading the comments I decided to DL the demo, which in all honesty I skipped over because it just looked like yet another FPS.After playing the demo I actually enjoyed it and picked up the game the next day and glad I did the game is fun and very different than a COD clone. Could have been better but glad they did not copy and paste the COD formula.
1 Like nice game, but cannot find a save option if I don't want to play the whole chapter!
1 Like there is no SAVE option - Checkpoints - typical of so many games these days - you gotta play the whole scene over if you get killed or screw up. just pray you don't get stuck on something and can't move along.
2 Like I think the score 6.0 is too low for this game.
this game snipper bullet CAM is really nice feature and the brutal kill is a nice add to the game
1 Like Seriously? this game is great! if his only problem is the AI then why the hell does it only have a 6? i'd give it a 7.5 or 8 at best.
@Kamikazenova45 His other problems are the "gamey" feel of certain things like the red capped gas tanks on vehicles as well as overwatch mode not being fun if you aren't the overwatch.
1 Like WOW Nice Snapshots,the only thing i liked about dis game is it has clear Playshots actions which have performed is realistic, truly playful!!!!
2 Like The guy reviewing this probably played it action style. Have the patience to stay at least 2 hours per level like it used to be with the old Splinter Cell and Thief games. Play it stealthy and silently and you will get the best out of Sniper Elite V2.
