ONE OF THE BEST WWII SHOOTERS... easily, but is it for you ???

User Rating: 9.1 | Sniper Elite PC
Sniper Elite is one of the best WWII games I have played to date, but !! it is for a very selective person only... buyer beware!!! If you like to run around, shoot and blast everything in you view, this IS NOT FOR YOU AT ALL. As the title suggests, it's a sniper game and it truly plays like this in every regard. The type of person that would think this is a game of a life time, would be someone like a true hunter of game. They like to wait it out, and be very quiet and sneaky, and they like the passage of time on edge, watching and listening... only to have that one moment of blood rush go through there bodies when they see there prey awaiting them in the ever so distant view of the landscape in there scope........ and then your rewards for waiting are just seconds away.... hold your breath..... hear you heart pumping.... sight in you distant target.... and let a shot go.......................................... bang ..... a head shot with all the blood and gore, now that was worth the wait, lets do it again!!!!

Ya, that what this one is all about, and it does it very well I might add. If you have really hunted in your life, you will get the idea of this one, and those who like a fast one, stay clear away, or..... give it a try, and don't rush the game....... you may find yourself liking this side of a shooter game even more because it rewards you for very hard, hard work in more ways than other games!!!!

As for the AI, it is very good, almost too good...... they are watching and listening too!!!! OH YA... it kind of makes your mind think all the time, and you will find yourself looking around a lot, even if you think that you have proper cover, where no one can see you ... yes they have snipers out there too, looking out for the unwanted !!!!

The sound of the game is good, however I can see a patch coming out very soon (please) from the user feedback of the repetition of sounds going on, but no big deal for now, you will have enough on you hands, and I would also think that they may lighten up on the AI a little bit , as on easy mode they will be on you before you shoot , that is an easy fix ........so please!!!! fix it and it will be perfect!!!!!

I am sure there will be a lot of happy people out there to finally see a PC game of this sort to come out and I know this one will go down as a...... I love it ...or .....I hate it type.

You will just have to ask yourself, am I the kind of person that likes the thrill of the hunt with a very long, long wait, only to find your true rewards after some skilled work ahead??????

I am.................... later.... I'm back to the hunt .........Nelson
