Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2
Friends, I really hate to post this as the game is bipolar to the nth degree. There is brilliance here, great fun and there is an odd idiocy so boring and compromised by bad reticles and basic misunderstanding on the “ones” of snipping that it makes the game truly unplayable. When it shines, those parts are not to be missed as they are beautifully rendered and as engaging as one would ever want, a new HIGH for the franchise. But, just as I had feared looking at the little we were shown, when it fails it is awful, unplayable and it stops you wanting to return to the game and as there is no going past one chapter until it is done, we will all have to stay put….on a platform….and pretend that this is fun. It is a bore folks, the scopes are simplistic, the marking unreadable (as are many of the distances on heads (read on green? ok….) and it is an awful ugly grind. As many have noted….

CONTRACTS 1, BUT BETTER.
However, the core gameplay is still pretty much the same. If you like C1, you will like C2 a lot. If you don’t like C1, well there is a high chance you won’t like C2 either.
2 years after SGW3, CI Games came back with SGW Contracts. Another 2 years, they give us Contracts 2. It’s a much more polished game this time around.
The improvements:
-Extreme long range sniping, their trademark selling point in this game. Now along with normal, classic low-medium range maps, the game will have extreme long range map which targets will usually be 1000m+ away. You can only see the enemies through your scope or binocular. These areas are especially made for long range sniping that you can’t not get in there no matter what you do. And of course, sniping at those long distance is very satisfying. If you want to make it even more challenging, use rifles with low magnification scope.

Geometric Sniper - Blood in Paris
The game isn’t bad but the features are rough. Hiding lasts like 2 seconds - the game fails to tell that you need to time the hiding with the enemy shot.
Also, the game keeps crashing after 20 minutes of gameplay. This is very annoying,
Good idea poor execution.

I recommend it because I like the geometric sniper concept from the first game and the game is an improvment on that.
But, message to the devs: your game is crashing a lot. At least on my PC.
I had probably 10 crashes in 5 hours.
That’s not really a deal breaker because this game does not require more than 5 minutes of your time but still … it crashes a lot.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2
I would give this game something between a thumbs up and a thumbs down because I do like some aspects of the game. However, they force me to make a black & white choice and I choose “No Way”. The graphics are pretty good, the basic gameplay is OK but there are a lot of issues:
1. There are places on the maps you can get stuck and not be able to get out of AND you cannot kill yourself to continue playing the game! You have to leave the game altogether and rejoin (if you can).
2. There is no way to kick or ban a player on your own server DURING the game …you have to wait for the game to be over! This is the ONLY thing you can do to protect yourself and it isn’t even in-the-moment or real-time!

Alright, I’m here to answer some questions you may thinking to yourself.
Is it worth buying it?
Is this game fun?
Beaware of some of it might be spoiler alert.
Personally so far I think this is the best game CI Games have produced. As a sniper-enthusiast I look for pros and cons with this game. I have already in advance completed this game on the Xbox 360 a long time ago, and to be honest I felt more connected into the game, and more sort a say “Alive” on the PC version. Here are some reasons why.

My Thoughts:
What started out to be a charming game with great physics and weapon selection, soon crumbles into a looping disaster.
The game has issues and I could not even get past mission 3 without the game resetting. (See my Video)
I cannot recommend this game in it’s current state.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior
I don’t usually hate games, but man, I tried REALLY HARD to like this game, but the game just manages to piss me off in a lot of ways.
I know this is an old game, but it’s so full of clunkiness and jank, even for the time of its release. Thankfully the sequels are much better and they learned their lessons from this game.
POSITIVE
[+] The sniping feels pretty good actually. The bullet cam somehow looks better than Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2, and to a very limited extent, better than Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3.

One of the few sniper-biz-themed FP-shooters up to the moment. At least, conceptually. In reality, it’s just the same as the most of other mediocre shooters of the time, with somewhat good visuals, stupid and way-too-pathetic story, ill-calculated scripts and AI. And way too much “spray-and-pray” for the sniper game. Even the levels where you start in stealth, do some (few) precise shots and supposed to get away quickly… there always be some “twist”, leaving you with .50 cal machinegun or AK/M4 in your hands.

Being the first installment in the Sniper franchise, Art of Victory introduces some intriguing mechanics and mission designs but unfortunately fails to maintain intrigue due to its narrow storytelling and lackluster replay value. The story follows a mysterious veteran sniper tasked to infiltrate various locations to assure the victory of World War II. Although alone, sometimes recruited with forgettable allies, he specializes particular techniques including stealth despite his limited armory.

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3
Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 tried too much to break out of the single path sniping origins, by cribbing elements from open world games. However, the result is a mixed bag and reminds one far too much of Far Cry 3.
As a special operative for the US government, you are sent into Republic of Georgia (former Soviet Union) to disrupt the separatists who, with help of criminal elements and outside support, terrorized the local government and military into leaving, and occupied the area in the midst of power vacuum. You are given objectives to accomplish, which usually means go into an area, kill a lot of bad guys, do your mission (whether it’s to kill someone, or to find/rescue/retrieve something) and get out safely. You are free to approach the mission any way you wish… Open world. Approach the target from any direction that is available to you. Occupy the hill across and shoot down, sneak in and knife the guards in the back, it’s all possible.

Summary
The review section, oh dear. Definitely not the game of 2017, but this is far, FAR from the disaster people make it out to be. An extremely fun, challenging and rewarding game that I thoroughly enjoyed more than I should have.
Unlock, upgrade and customise your gear to set out and traverse extremely large expansive maps. Snipe enemies from afar, infiltrate secret bases, or use all out action to complete your objectives from any angle at any time.
If you aren’t swayed by public opinions plus enjoy flawed yet fun games, snap this one up. For COD fanboys and people who enjoy AAA chores, sorry this isn’t for you.

Sniper Squad Mission
Sniper Squad Mission, as the name suggests, lacks any sort of creativity or gameplay for that matter. It consists of 6 short waves (using the same recycled 2 maps.) There is no cover and there are no movement keys - the player just stands still in the same spot while shooting 1 enemy at a time as they spawn in until there are none left. The game can be 100% completed in less than 10 minutes. Why it is priced at $5, let alone sold at all is beyond me.

Huge waste of time (10 mins). Premise is that these people with snipers all shoot from you in the open? You are also in the open by the way. Spoiler alert, you can’t die too.

Geometric Sniper
Find the Object, Hidden Object Sniper game.
Intriguing and Simple Pencil line Artwork.
Repeat and Replay till you memorize the timing of target’s appearance, route and where to shoot to higher score.
Some frustration over rinse, repeat and waiting.
Questionable,
' Accuracy ' on target aiming and breathe taking while taking shots,
headshot and chestshot are blind,
the game insisted shooting the nose and cheek for near maximal score.
Calculation of leaderboard highscores as the top ladders somehow seems to exceed the 12 mission limits of 2K each, yet dozens of the top are above 24k ~ 25 K,

I was surprised when I first played Geometric Sniper. I wasn’t expecting a super interesting story but it’s much more than an indie 2D game with a cute art style. I love a good story when I play games and in this one, it even had plot twists and cliffhangers. I loved it! It also goes really deep with themes like depression and philosophical questions.
The gameplay is also TIGHT, it’s addicting and after finishing the campaign I went straight for the other game modes. The need of thinking twice before pulling the trigger it’s the icing on the cake because it really makes you feel like a sniper. You need to be sure that the person on your aim is your target because if it’s not then you will lose points for killing an innocent person. The game is about patience and agility, your targets are never standing still and you need to find them fast before something bad happens.

Marine Sharpshooter II: Jungle Warfare
The game plays the same as it did in 2004, alot of problems with freezing. It is a old school game and it would be nice to play if it didn’t have so many bugs in it. There is problems all the way through the game almost got to the end and it quit working rite, left me stuck next to a shack and it didn’t mater how many I killed they just keep coming I finally gave up after killing over 200 and went back to a save spot, day 2 and then it frooze. Wish they would have taken the glitches out before selling it again. How dare they sell it ( even for 1.04 ) They should have given it away for free. Guess they don’t know about the product law in the UK ( what you buy has to do what it says with no problems ) What they should do is say sorry to every one who bought it and take it off there list and give every one there money back or a game that works. I don’t think they read people’s reviews or they just don’t care.
