Sniper Elite V2
Sniper Elite V2 is a third person tactical WWII shooter and
the sequel to 2005's Sniper Elite. Playing as an American sniper infiltrating
Berlin during the last days of the war, players must sneak and shoot their way
to their high-ranking targets. Realistic bullet physics can make landing a shot
challenging, though there are a number of assists available to help players if
they so choose. In addition to a campaign that can be played cooperatively,
there are a few cooperative online multiplayer modes. PC players can also
engage in tense deathmatches online against other human players.
A pinpoint shot over long distance is immensely
satisfying Delightfully gory kill
animations Nice array of explosive
traps Tense competitive multiplayer.
Enemy AI can be transparently dumb Unnatural enemy spawning Can feel like you are exploiting rather than
outmaneuvering your foe.
There are many challenges that await the virtual sniper.
Infiltrating an area undetected, stalking your prey, and acquiring an
uninterrupted line of sight--the tension of the hunt. Picking off targets,
moving to a new position, setting traps, and evading your enemies--the thrill
of the chase. Taking aim, calculating distance, slowly exhaling, and squeezing
the trigger--the release of the kill. The satisfactions of sniping are many,
but Sniper Elite V2 serves them up inelegantly, making it an uneven game for
those who love the long shot.
When you're caught in the crossfire, everyone must die.

Like its predecessor, Sniper Elite V2 is set during the
closing days of WWII. You're an American sniper sent in to stop the Russians
from scooping up Nazi scientists. Naturally, things don't go as planned and you
have to improvise. The story plays out in nicely acted voice-overs and
perfunctory cutscenes, providing a decent backdrop for your missions. The solid
level design makes good use of the setting, as bombed-out buildings and
barricaded streets provide lots of nice hiding places for a lone sniper.
Unsurprisingly, PC players get a much-better-looking version of ruined Berlin,
enjoying crisp details and lovely skies while Xbox 360 owners deal with softer,
more muted visuals.
The beginning of each mission starts out stealthily. You are
behind enemy lines, and your only allies are the weapons and munitions you
carry with you. You can carry a rifle, a submachine gun, and a sidearm, and
though you unlock new weapons as you progress, the differences are slight. More
crucial is your choice of explosives. Trip wires, land mines, dynamite, and
grenades all blow up in different ways, and having enough firepower to set an
extra trap or take out a cluster of advancing enemies can be a big help.
But before you start blowing things up, it behooves you to
remain quiet as long as possible. Crouch-walking everywhere gets tiresome, but
loud footsteps attract hostile attention, and even one enemy in close quarters
can spell doom for the fragile sniper. You can often make good progress with
sneaky melee kills, silenced pistol shots, and timed rifle reports that are
masked by the noise of exploding bombs or tolling bells. Guards usually move in
predictable patterns that you can exploit, or you can lure them closer for a
cleaner kill.
BOOM! Headshot.
While your SMG and pistol are great teammates, your rifle is
the franchise player. Shots to heads and torsos usually kill or incapacitate
your foes. You can hone your targeting by slowly exhaling, which slows time and
zooms in slightly. If your aim is true, you are rewarded with one of the many
gruesome and gratifying camera shots that Sniper Elite V2 lovingly serves up.
The camera tracks the bullet and gives you a front-row seat to the moment of
impact. Sometimes you just watch the bullet enter and exit the body, leaving a
blooming exit wound behind. The more dramatic moments offer an X-ray view of
the bullet smashing through bones and tearing through organs in grisly slow
motion. These are brutal and gratuitous (perhaps too much so, for some), but
even after hours of sniping, they never get oldTURBOBIT
