Sniper Elite V2 is the revolutionary re-imagining of the classic game Sniper Elite. All of the aspects of gameplay, graphics, and everything inbetween has been revamped in order to bring this immersive and innovative game into the 21st century. Sniper Elite V2 is a breath of fresh air in this particular gaming genre, with this third person shooter based more in the tactical side of gun play.
It is 1945, and the planet is in the throes of World War 2. You play as Carl Fairburn, a sniper who has been sent behind enemy lines in the ruins of Berlin. You will have to make use of your exceptional stealth and sniper skills in order to make it out of this chaos alive, your main priority being to remain silent and remain unseen. You will have to measure and analyse every situation you find yourself in, and know exactly when to shoot, who to shoot, and even whether to shoot. You will be provided with an array of artillery including machine guns, a silencer-equipped pistol, and of course a sniper rifle. You will also have the ability to break your foe's neck should you find yourself in a close quarters combat situation, meaning you are prepared for whatever situation you wind up in.
Sniper Elite V2 prides itself upon the realism it delivers, getting details such as locations, weapons, vehicles, and uniforms all down to a tee. This sharpshooter takes everything into account when you are lining up your shot with the use of their ingenious ballistic system, which adds to the intense realism. With the ballistic system, you have to take various factors into consideration, including calculating gravity, cross winds, the weight of your gun's muzzle, and more. When playing on a harder difficulty, you sometimes even have to rely on smoke to properly gage the wind, and hold your breath at the right moment. In order not to expose yourself to the enemy with the sound of your shot, you can time your firing to coincide with noises of the environment, for example thunder. In order to get the best view of your target, you can place yourself in vantage points which you can secure by placing mines around your area, so no enemy can catch you off guard. All of this, and more, adds up to an incredibly realistic military sharpshooter that will keep you on the edge of your seat at all times.
Alongside this very realistic observe, plan, and execute theme, there are also plenty of aspects to remind yourself that Sniper Elite V2 is still an exhilarating and action packed game. There is an incredible bullet cam that has been re-introduced, which activates when you make a great shot. This re-engineered kill cam will follow the bullet in slow motion as it goes through your target's body, giving an x-ray of the bullet shattering bones, perforating organs, and even more gory and grisly details. Sniper Elite V2 brings you everything you could want from a sharpshooter and more, perfectly balancing both realism and adrenaline fuelled action to culminate in this tense perfection. (Cat Emerson)

Sniper Elite V2 = Awesome!!
Awesome! That is the best way to describe Sniper Elite V2 in one word. The single player campaign is really challenging, even on the lowest difficulty settings. The challenge modes are what they say, a challenge. Multiplayer could have been a bit more refined and feature a few more modes, but there is enough to keep all players entertained. This is a refreshing change to the norm for a FPS game and is a good addition to any COD or BF fan's game collection.

Sniper Elite V2
Sniper Elite V2 is a great game. It has great graphics, and has a feature never seen in other games i.e. the damage caused by the bullet in the body. Every hit is differently shown. It's a great feature and definitely a game for those who like stealth and sniping.

Sniper Elite reboot
Sniper Elite V2 is more of a reboot than a sequel to the old Xbox game, hence why it has a definitive old skool feel to the gameplay. Slow-paced, slightly repetitive - but the sniping mechanic is simply satisfying, and a real trial and error method of play. And when you finally crack a level, there's a sense of satisfaction there you don't get with your standard FPSs. Hence, highly recommended.

Sniper elite v2
All in all, Sniper Elite V2 is a good game! Don't get it, expecting "Call of Duty" or "Medal of Honour". It's a different game altogether. Well worth a look while waiting for the aforementioned titles to come out!

Sniper Elite V2
Sniper Elite V2 is very realistic, and I like that it's set in WWII. The killcams and missons are awesome.
