Shooter devotees desperate to find something different this summer might be able to scrape out something of value in Sniper: Ghost Warrior, but even the most hard-up gamer would likely be better served looking backwards toward other, better executed titles from the last few years such as the aforementioned ARMA 2 or Operation: Flashpoint. Hopefully, City Interactive can bring something more fleshed out to the table next time.

Great! It was always disappointing that Lords of the Fallen never got a proper sequel back in the day, so I'm glad the Reboot stirred up enough interest to warrant a sequel this time around.
A look at five games that gamers loved but most critics hated.
Advent Rising is another good example. It got panned by critics but it has a good story and I enjoyed playing it. The graphics are dated, the enemies all look the same, but it was made in 2005 so what do you expect? I wish they made the sequel so I could finish the story but I think the critics killed it off.

I seldom trust gamers or critics anymore. A lot of times high scores just mean how likely you are to enjoy something from the game, but rarely anything about how much you would enjoy said things, or whether the highly preferred type of qualities in a game you’re looking for are even in it. My initial gut feeling of the premise of a game is usually all I need.
Choose the right weapons for your mission and achieve your targets as the Sniper Ghost Warrior series comes to Android and iOS devices.
I guess the check bounced.
The game is not that bad, or in another sense, the reviewer is complaining about issues that can be experienced in even the most highly rated games. Invisible barriers and small objects that act as obstructions plague many games, including but not limited to Dead Space, Halo 3, Resistance, MGS4, Killzone 2, Gears of War 1&2, Assassin's Creed 1&2, Shadow Complex, Modern Warfare 1&2, Grand Theft Auto IV, Red Faction Guerrilla, Doom 3, Uncharted 1&2 and much more.
It irks me that the reviewer would center his review of the game on something so common. Why didn't any of the games I listed get marked down for it. Invisible walls are there to direct the flowof the game. The player is not supposed to be wander off too far from the action. And it's common for objects to obstruct movement. Again, I've experienced that issue in virtually every game that I mentioned.
Now, the better point that is brought up is the poor acting and the plot. The gameplay, I've seen it, and it's not bad. Again, another reviewer made a video review of the game and praised the the satisfying sniper kills in each mission.
At the very worst, this game is a 6.8 or something. But I would have given it a 7.4.
And I don't even need to mentioned how fucked up the IGN rating system is.
decent review, ill rent it for my ps3, never know, it might be wayy underrated.
:/ flop
Looked like it had good graphics though.
Not perfect but very fun. I have it on pc and I'm loving it.
Not on Ps3
