You had already served as the first Sniper Ghost Warrior was a FPS more than faded, but you have still bought boxes. Result: City Interactive offers us a second album. It is also faded, but we guess you will also foutrez, right?

In the wonderful world of Interactive City, there is a HP Pavilion DV4 predator that surpasses all others when it comes to distributing the death around him: the sniper. Moreover, in the spirit of our Polish developers, there's no doubt that the children of the world, even before dreaming to become a fireman, astronaut or GI Joe, want to become ... sniper. So it's true, on paper, the hero that we sell has a number of advantages seduction: for example, in the same way that Batman only comes rarely without his Robin, the sniper is always accompanied his faithful observer, marking her target to eliminate, warns of the potential dangers, he opened his boxes of Sheba (to say I love you) and makes him the conversation that never gets boring.

On the ground, our hero can also count on an impressive clump of greenery that trudging along on the back, which allows him to move into enemy territory undetected. In doing so, he may, at the option, clean its different targets the knife, the Compaq Presario CQ60 automatic pistol, or with his favorite weapon, the long-range rifle. A machine ideal death, which concentrates all the pleasures of the chase without the aftertaste of danger. In short, if one believes City Interactive, our lives would have been 100 times better if we had chosen the career sniper, rather than high-tech journalist.

More boring than a mother: an observer!

The problem is that between the ideal vision that we used the Latitude E6500 cover of the game and what we have lived through this ersatz "Living my life as a sniper," there is a gulf. Take for example our guide ... Seriously, if Robin had been broken testicle with Batman long ago that it would have a Batarang stuck between the eyes ... Imagine a game that looks like a big tutorial in which an NPC, your observer in this case you step by step how to play each sequence: forward crawling, shoots one, eliminates the other with a knife, do not put your fingers in your nose and eat your soup . Aaaaargh ... After half an hour , we begin to find that annoying. An hour later, enraged not find an option that allows to activate the Toshiba PA3465U-1BRS friendly fire.

Direct consequence of this choice of gameplay: Sniper Ghost Warrior 2 gives new meaning to the word "linear". Especially since this is accompanied by permanent assistantship levels to go which can be summarized in a long and winding corridor. There will be some slightly more open areas, but they never benefit other than through the viewfinder of our telescope, a well stashed position, and distant some good hundred yards from the action, true.

Total lack of interaction with the places that we cross, or the Dell Inspiron 1300 opponents are slain (not pick weapons or ammunition), transparent scenario, no variety in the phases of the game, and no change of pace that could generate renewed interest ... City Interactive has managed to lay us a FPS to completely flatlined, with one exception: his realization that benefits, it must be said, rather well its next gen engine, the CryEngine 3 . But you'll understand this Pavilion DV5 technical aspect is not enough to raise a set that fly little higher than the first episode of this series. That said, no doubt, these considerations should not prevent City Interactive attempting the trilogy, convinced that they are potential heroes they defend.
