Summary
The entertainment of sniping in Sniper 2 is plagued by bouts of mediocrity between each shooting scenario, resulting in a rush to get to the next sniping roost. The multiplayer isn't even equivalent to a cut-and-paste of other shooters, and the narrative is something found in any military movie. $40 may be cheaper than most games, but so is the experience in Sniper 2.
We like
- Realistic, enjoyable sniping
- Vast graphical detail
We dislike
- Multiplayer is a joke
- Very weak cookie-cutter narrative
- Design flaws throughout
