Overlooked B-Movie Gem, Unique Shooter
The "Sniper: Ghost Warrior" series has its ups and downs. It began as a sniper-focused Call of Duty clone, but it evolved into so much more. Suffice it to say, the more recent entries, this one included, are much better than its rough early games. I'll cut right to the chase: Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 is a mix between the Far Cry 3 Open World formula and the Sniper Elite series (if it were 1st person and modern day rather than 3rd person and WW2 era). If you're a fan of either or both games, you will enjoy this game. There really are only two major sniper-focused series in gaming: this and Sniper Elite. Both feature more realistic sniping mechanics (bullet drop-off, using the right distance) than most other shooters, and both have a sort of "bullet-cam" when you land headshots every now and again. SE's does a Mortal Kombat-style "X-Ray," while this series has blood gushing out and occasionally gibbing with parts of people's faces flying off. While Sniper Elite has objectively more complex mechanics on paper: e.g. a.i. scouting your position based on last known location, timing shots with loud noises to hide them, using environment--in practice, it all feels more videogamey, and I don't feel quite as badass. SGW 3, on the other hand, may have fewer mechanics, but it feels more challenging, with a less forgiving checkpoint system. The missions are really tense, and varied, and you really feel like a sniper badass when you do win. Both series do a great job of letting you use handguns and assault rifles, but making them feel secondary. In SGW3, your AR, though competent, is really a last resort to stay alive as you run away and hide. That alone makes this so different from majority of shooters. Pistols, on the other hand, are quite useful for close quarters stealth kills. My only gripe is the bow/arrow is not good at all, but as a DLC weapon, this is forgiveable. P.S. The graphics are out of this world! SGW3 uses the CryTek (Crysis) engine, so it looks phenomenal!
