Sniper Ghost Warrior is a tactical first Person Shooter for PC Computer
Microsoft Windows Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and the first installment of the
Sniper series. It was released on June 24, 2010 and Launch by me on
12 December 2012 for Microsoft Windows via Steam with the Xbox 360 version
released on June 29, 2010 and the PlayStation 3 version on April 28, 2011.
The game is based around the role of
the military sniper, which the developer has noted that the public interest of
which has increased thanks in large parts to shows on channels like the History
Channel or the Military Channel. The game's objective is to insert players into
the role of an elite sniper team sent into a hostile area in an attempt to help
the rebels of Isla Trueno, a fictitious Latin American country, fight against
the force who has toppled their government in a coup d'état.
A sequel, titled Sniper Ghost
Warrior 2 was announced to be in development and is expected to be released in
August 2012 but Eurogamer revealed the game was pushed back to October.
Sniper Ghost Warrior puts players
into the suit of a sniper as they attempt to accomplish a wide array of sniping
and assault missions. Snipers are some of the deadliest and most frustrating
soldiers to deal with in shooters, so it's very appealing to be the one behind
the scope in Sniper Ghost Warrior. The trouble is that a lot of design miscues
by developer City Interactive make it almost as aggravating to play a sniper
here as it is to try to avoid the insta kill headshots that snipers deal out as
bad guys in other first person shooters. Maddening difficulty, irritating enemy
AI that hides its stupidity by being prescient, and terrible stealth mechanics
make the game as annoying as a mosquito in your bedroom. Only good shooting
mechanics, sharp jungle visuals, cool slow mo camera effects that let you get
up close and personal with bloody headshots, and somewhat promising multiplayer
save the game from being a total disaster.
The story behind the Sniper Ghost
Warrior campaign deals with some kind of revolt in a banana republic. Details
are sparse, with you being filled in on a need to know basis through brief
orders from HQ during missions, but it seems like the bad guys have taken over
this tropical paradise and the Yanks are on the way to restore order. Faster
than you can say "Hey, that's just like what Reagan did with
Grenada!" you've got your boots on the ground as a Ghost Warrior, an elite
covert operative with a sniper rifle and a plan. Well, you've got to assume
there's a plan behind all of it. You're never given the whole picture aside
from random tidbits about drugs and a nuclear program, although you are handed
out clear orders in the levels and sent off to kill various baddies, rescue
captives, mark targets, secure data, and clear out bases. Objectives are also
marked out with onscreen dots and a gauge that tracks distance from goals, so
you can never get lost even in the densest jungle foliage.
In
the game, players take the role of various characters for different missions.
Among them are a sniper, Sergeant Tyler Wells, for long range missions and
stealth assignments, a Delta Force operator, Private Anderson, as well as a
rebel, El Tejon, for missions involving direct firefights. The main plot
centers around a highly trained special ops unit that is sent into the
fictional country of Isla Trueno, whose democratic government has been
overthrown by a hostile force.
Undercover
Agent Mike Rodriguez infiltrates the entourage of General Vasquez in order to
set up a shot for the sniper-spotter team Alpha Nine. Killing the general would
put an end to the regime on Isla Trueno. During the assassination attempt,
Agent Rodriguez is compromised and captured, and General Vasquez escapes. After
a series of missions, the assault team Delta Three, supported by sniper unit
Razor Six Four, manages to free Agent Rodriguez from an enemy camp.
With
Vasquez on the loose, Delta Three and Razor Six Four are sent to set up an air
strike on a cocaine plantation. After the successful destruction of the
plantation, the evacuation chopper comes under attack and has to leave. Razor
Six Four makes his way through enemy territory in order to reach the new
evacuation point from where he is extracted.
Individual mission objectives are
quite varied. While the majority of the game focuses on traditional sniper
duties, like shooting sentries in the head via your telescopic sights, some
levels mix in stealth and others deal with straight-out shooter carnage that is
all about going to town with the budda budda budda stuff. At times, you bounce
around to different parts of battlefields, seeing how fights play out from
different angles. One moment, you're on a tower taking out enemy snipers to
protect an incoming assault team. The next, you're part of that assault team,
shooting up all and sundry. Levels feature lush jungles, ancient ruins, sandy
beaches, and tin shacks, making your sniping exploits look a bit like clips
from somebody's slides during an off the beaten path vacation in Cuba. That's
not to say that Sniper: Ghost Warrior is bleeding edge or anything, as there
are some real rough edges, like extremely blocky shadows. Still, the game looks
more than respectable, even featuring a slow mo bullet cam whenever you make a
headshot or kill two enemies with one pull of the trigger. An array of jungle
noises and Spanish enemy chatter further build a Caribbean atmosphere, and
really come to life in the living room if you've got a good 5.1 surround
system, although the audio is marred by chintzy weapon sounds.
While Sniper Ghost Warrior has a few
pluses, they're hard to spot buried under the many design flaws that make the
game one frustrating rumble in the jungle. It's awfully gratifying to line up a
perfect kill and be rewarded with a bullet time slow mo sequence that shows
what happened to the bad guy's head after you squeezed the trigger. But
annoyances like the punitive stealth sequences, and insane difficulty spikes
make the satisfying moments few and far between.
