The hardest difficulty should be the normal difficulty. Everything lower should be grades of easy over normal. Wind never changes. Wish it did. Wish I had more control over wind, but it is simply shown as a white line on your scope. I would rather get a wind speed and adjust my scope manually. Instead it is automatic. This should probably be an additional difficulty level added. I guess I am looking for and expecting more realism. Minus half star for that as it turns it into an arcade game and reminding you that it is. The minus second half star is it should have been longer. Too short. But with that said, it felt great. Nailing a long range shot with a subpar scope and rifle is all you need to know. Just feels like you did something hard to do. I saved the journalist on the hardest level with the base scope... That was a hard thing to do. Learned to get a better scope after that mission.
...but that while is short. Gets boring pretty quick. Not sure about all the 5 star reviews and where they came from. Must be nostalgia. Me? I couldn't finish it as it is one of those games that you lose interest in. Guessing this was better and better controls on the Playstation version, but the PC version is a wreck and then the enemies being bullet sponges.
I'd give it 3 stars, but the fact they purposely didn't put a single white male in it tells you the minds of its creators. Minus 1 star for that. All for diversity, but come on guys. Also some of the dialog too. Short, but forgettable. You won't remember much about it after you are finished playing.
