Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 does a mediocre job of offering up a shooting gallery, but it's so limited in scope that it's almost impossible to recommend to anyone who doesn't feel a strange sense of arousal whenever they imagine popping a bullet into someone's head at several hundred yards. Well, whenever Diaz finally tells them to, of course.

Buggy and clumsy, yet somehow entertaining. [May 2013]

Some great sniping action surrounded by ropey stealth sections and enemy AI. [June 2013, p.69]

Was better than the first one and honestly it didn't overstay its welcome. Finished it in 3 hours and was alright. Nothing special not a hidden gem not a flop its just mediocre.

It's definetely an upgrade from the first one in all fields with one exception. Whereas in the first one you'd have some freedom of choice to move around this one is a bit more linear but this time at least there are no bugs and there's a detection meter so it's possible to determine whether you were seen or not

For this game to be good, the only thing missing was aiming assistance because the gameplay is horrible and More excitement in ballet cam because it's rubbish! No blood comes out, no limbs are ripped off and there is no x-ray

City Interactive has done a wonderful job of improving on the first Ghost Warrior title, and while this game still has a ways to go before being stellar, it definitely has succeeded in getting us excited for what the next sniping title may look like.

Though the potential to be a great game is there for Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2, it just never reaches that point of greatness due to flaws and linear gameplay.

I think the official reviewer has lost his mind, didn't really play the game, or has a bias of thinking it would **** because of the first game. The new sniper 2 game is fantastic fun. Is it extremely innovative? No, but that's not how games should be judged, but only on quality of gaming experience. The graphics of the lush foliage environments are splendidly accomplished and the gameplay is super fun taking out russian, filipinos, and ukranians from long range. This game is meant to be played on hard if you want a true sniping experience without all the help. I really enjoyed protecting the seal teams from afar. I actually hated the first sniper game but very much have enjoyed my experience with this game. If there is one thing we've learned, don't trust reviewers (ahem Diablo 3 and Mass Effect 3, etc.). They are biased, paid off, or way too enamored with innovation.

I think the Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 is more better then the first game. _city interactiv made good game for low price. Graphic mayby isn't like crysis3 but is better than good. Hovever Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 is actually best sniper game and i have lot of fun playing. I'm waitting for more maps to play multiplayer.

An appealing-enough concept mired by shoddy execution. Unabashed scope junkies may find something to amuse them here, however, providing you put a bullet through your better judgement.

A huge disappointment and a step back from the original game. Ghost Hunter 2 is boring, repetitive, and doesn't really immerse you in the world of snipers.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 turned out to be a clumsy attempt in creating a sniper-focused FPS, with many defects and few positives. A good overall atmosphere is overcome by a bad enemy AI, an incredibly short campaign and glitchy CryEngine implementation. Forgettable.

I realize this is what’s considered a budget title at $39.99, but regardless of this fact I felt like one would not get much for their hard earned, and spent, dollars here. Give this one a pass unless you are the most addicted of scope junkies or if you enjoyed the first game.

A sequel that seems to have learned almost nothing from the deeply flawed original, and which still only hints at the wider potential for a proper sniper sim.

Sniper 2 was a much better game than the first one, I thought the levels were very good and gameplay was excellent. There is one thing I would pick holes in the game is the checkpoints **** especially if u try it on hard, I wanted to get all the achievements and this was very difficult on hard because the enemy always heard you, still besides that it is an excellent game.

I took a chance with this game because of the £25 price point thinking it would be rubbish. But I was wrong, the single player is fun, as well as the multiplayer. Graphics aren't the best but what do you expect for 25 quid. Excellent game
