Then they peek out to look for who is shooting at them. First they hunker down so they don't get their heads blown off. Where bad guys tended to run around mindlessly and freeze in place before, now they smartly respond to fire by taking cover. Almost every aspect of the first game has been refined for this sequel. The presentation isn't the only thing that excels in Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2.

Weapon noises, the shouts of enemy voices, the far-off rattle of weapon fire in war-torn Sarajevo, and various atmospheric sounds like the background hum of the Philippine jungle are all handled extremely well and enhance the tension as you line up each careful shot. Excellent sound effects do a wonderful job of pulling you in. You come to care for Cole and his buddies through this seven- to eight-hour saga of betrayal and revenge that begins today, bounces back to 1993 for a look at the civil war that ravaged the former Yugoslavia, and then jumps to the present to wrap everything up along the border between Nepal and India.Ī well-written, well-acted script give the game a great action-movie vibe, as do authentic-looking visuals and animations powered by the CryEngine 3.

You play as Cole, a special-ops sniper helping out assault teams in hot zones ranging from the Philippines to Sarajevo to Nepal. Most of your time with Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 will be spent with the three-part campaign. Now Playing: Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 - Video Review By clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's
