I played on the standard difficulty and found it to be more fun, even if the AI was a tad dumb from time to time. For those looking to test themselves and have a more realistic option, this is for you. If you play the game on the highest difficulty the AI is ruthless and you better make each shot count. If you manage to nail the shot just right, you get this gory kill which is as brutal as some of the stuff we have seen in the recent Mortal Kombat games. If you hold your breath you can do what is pretty much a bullet time type of deal. However, the game is at its best when you are concealed and lining up a long-range shot.Ī huge part of the fun of this is the way Sniper Elite V2 is so brutal with its kills.

You have silenced pistols, machine guns, melee attacks, and so on. I love sniping and this game is a joy to do it in! The gameplay on offer here is great. The real draw to a game like this is of course the sniping and it is great.

The story is not as cinematic as say a Call of Duty WWII, but Sniper Elite V2 still manages to tell a very engaging story and it is a story that is easily going to last you ten or so hours so it is a very decent length.
