Product ReviewsSniper: Ghost Warrior (Sony PlayStation 3, 2011)

a great game that needs some changes to it. i hope there is a sequel to it

the game seems to be an updated version of what i can tell as its older sibling for ps2 named sniper elite wich was staged in ww2 and you were in germany it was a greate game also. sniper ghost warrior is a good game and does justice to its older sibling. its staged in 3rd wourld country that i cannot remember right now but you can get the idea by looking at the cover of the game what kind of enviroment youll be playingin.
The A.I is pretty smart as far as spotting you if you dont hide well but after that they just kind of run around and shoot at you and stand out in the open for the most part but there are some that seem to be set up much better than others as far as useing their cover and moving from cover to cover.

now on to the enviroment the trees weeds and rocks are all good but when it comes to the little huts with ladders in up to them that would make a greate sniping spot you cant climb into them. it just seems like there should have been a just a lil more free world roam.
now onto the fps set up as far as the granades and knives medkits were a much needed addition that went extremely well in this game.. the clearity in the scope with the drop compensated scope with windage added into the bullets trajectory could make this game hard to play but they put in this red dot that does the compensating for you insead of the cross hairs you use the red dot. and the camera that follows the bullet from the barrel to the bad guy if its a head shot. wich is just plane awsome that needs to be in more army and fighting games

i gave this game a 4 because the repelling wasnt very good and the the enviroment could have been a little more free roaming and there could be more choices on guns and the ability to do different things with the guns. but as far as the shooting and killing of the A.I it pushed its score up to a 4star in my eyesRead full review...

not as fun as it sounded

Sniper: Ghost Warrior PS3 is here But it's brought new problems with it without fixing what made Sniper less than the sum of its parts last time around.somewhere in the journey from PC/360 to PS3, something has gone very wrong. Character models are awkward and bizarrely shiny, though the environments appear expansive and lush. However, this is punctuated by an abysmal framerate -- the game chugs along unless you're looking at the floor or directly at the sky. Almost as distracting is the egregious screen tearing that plagues Sniper: Ghost Warrior on PS3 -- at times it seems like the image on screen is breaking apart in three of four different places. The "improved graphics" are nowhere to be found and Sniper: Ghost Warrior PS3 is one of the uglier shooters of the last few years.The sniping mechanic itself has made the transition to the PS3 more or less intact, though. While Sniper: Ghost Warrior isn't quite as excruciatingly prone to realism as, say, ARMA 2 or the original Operation: Flashpoint, it seems realistic. Shots from the titular sniper rifles in Ghost Warrior are subject to gravity and environmental effects from wind and the like, such that play is predicated less on twitch gunplay and more on setting up and taking the right shots at targets.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior makes itself more accessible than the more stringent military simulations by granting the equivalent of sniper super powers; clicking in the right stick while zoomed in with a sniper rifle causes the world to slow, simulating the increased concentration of an inwardly held breath from a trained marksman. On the default difficulty, this is accompanied by a red circular sub-reticule that will appear if you hold your aim long enough, which displays exactly where your bullet will land after the effects of wind and gravity. On harder difficulties, this sub-reticule vanishes, leaving you more at the whim of the elements. Firing a sniper rifle in Ghost Warrior feels distinctive and particularly rewarding in comparison to most titles' point-and-click approach to long-range combat.The graphical issues -- as well as some generally poor voicework and text riddled with grammatical errors -- pale in comparison to level design that does little to support actual sniping, and which is often dependent on AI triggers tied to waypoints that aren't especially well implemented. Enemies will spawn into levels based on these triggers in bizarre ways that test suspension of disbelief, and make it difficult to effectively plan out an approach.The run-and-gun sections from last year's 360 and PC releases of Sniper: Ghost Warrior have been removed more or less, replaced by cutscenes that show the results of the assault missions in question. While these sections were generic, not-fun messes, their removal is somewhat of a wash, leaving Sniper: Ghost Warrior on PS3 a game that suffers even more from a feeling of sameness. Some new, actual gameplay addition would have been welcome. Instead, there are more sniper levels, set aside from the main game and available for immediate play. But the only really new conceit -- to take away the HUD and checkpoints -- don't make for more fun. They make for even more frustration. These sections serve only to demonstrate how poor the AI and basic shooting in Sniper: Ghost Warrior are -- when the AI isn't spotting you with machine-like precision in brush from 2000 yards away, that is.Read full review...

Good shooting game BUT, very different from others like COD.

For those who like moving slowly inside the jungle, avoiding the opponent just like a sniper, this is a good game.
Don't expect those insane movements/interactions from games like Call of Duty. This is a first person shooter of a different kind.
The game has some glitches that does not really bother, like freezing the screen while saving.
I would say that the secret is "be pacient and you'll be there"

Looking forward for the Ghost Sniper 2 in early 2012.Read full review...

An ok game

Would have been much better if shooter could carry additional shoulder weapons. Trying to shoot a sniper rifle in close order combat was very frustrating and I found myself losing interest.

Very very good game, you will not be disappointed

Amazing Game, I have been waiting for a game like this to come out for a very long time. This game is about as realistic as you can get out of video game, graphics are amazing, wind actually throws off your bullet! I recommend this game to anyone who likes to play as a sniper in games like Call of Duty. Controls are very similar to COD. Lots of action, hard to put down the controller! There are actually multiple story lines in this game, one continues off the other, so when you think your done, you have more sniping to go. Very very good game, you will not be disappointed.Read full review...

Boring, Lame, Repeditive, and Im easy to please..dont waste ur money!

I bought this game because I love these type of military style games. I must say that it was very dissapointing. The kicker is I bought the second one too, I hope its better. The graphics are ok, the sounds are ok but nothing special. If you are killed you must start over from the begining of the mission. There are very few check points to save your progress. Lots of corrections could be made to make this game more exciting. I am not a gaming expert, just a guy that plays when he can. I don't think Im being to critical for just the average guy that knows very little about gaming. I would not recommend this game.Read full review...

is the best game 100 # A + + +

This is one of the best games i have played. Takes a long time to beat and once you do beat it you got four exspanson packs to play. Really cool story line and graphics are really good.
100% Good (Este es uno de los mejores juegos que he jugado. Toma mucho tiempo para vencer y una vez que lo golpearon tienes cuatro paquetes exspanson para jugar. Línea de la historia realmente fresca y los gráficos son muy buenos.)Read full review...

Great game! Buy it! Met my current expectations.

Great game. Not as good as I thought it would be, but a good concept. Too much climb here...wait here nonsense. Just want to shoot stuff and be a sniper. Needs to be more of an open environment next time. More like the old Socom U.S. Navy Seal games would be good.Read full review...
