Sniper Ghost Warrior is set on the fictitious South American island of Isla Trueno, where a despotic military regime lead by the ruthless General Vasquez has overthrown its democratic government to seize control. As one of a group of covert commandos, the player is charged with infiltrating the rebel stronghold and overthrowing the unelected powerbase. Intelligence reports indicate that Vasquez is due to chair a meeting with his cohorts in an old refinery facility, and a government plant is in place to set up an assassination opportunity for the crack unit. But as the unit arrive on the island, it soon becomes clear that the plan has gone awry, and the team must adapt and use their combat skills if they are to complete the mission.

Realism is at the heart of Sniper Ghost Warrior, and the game enjoys a truly realistic ballistic system that accounts for the distance of a shot, fall-off of the bullet's trajectory, and environmental factors, such as wind direction. Similarly, the lush jungle environments, allow the user to use the cover of the foliage to take out key targets, while other members of your squad can act as 'spotters' to detail the positions of key adversaries. Players must also manage the breathing of their sniper to provide a more accurate shot, while the game's 'Bullet Cam' system offers stunning close-ups as the bullets thud into their unsuspecting targets.

The mission spans 16 stages, starting with the problematic assassination attempt at the refinery, and moving on to oilrigs, a mine, the coast, and a set of ruins as the game's plot continually surprises. Each level is brought to vivid life with the many rustles of the jungle keeping the player in a constant state of alert, and the sniper elements mixed with incredible firefights, as the enemy break cover and the squad is forced to engage in open combat.

Not as good as I had hoped it would be.

I have been waiting for this game for quite a while - being someone that really enjoys the sniper role in many other FPS games, such as BF2.
While the game play is fairly good, it is constantly broken up by data saving - even when nothing has happened, other than you moving a short distance.
Although the game tries to give a feeling of free movement, it is very much on rails and you are unable to move into areas that look like they shouldn’t prove difficult at all - being blocked by small steps or similar.
The game only seems to have daylight play, so no night action is present - a real shame, as this would add an excellent element to the game.
I am eagerly waiting for PSN to be up and running again, so that I can try out the multiplayer side of the game; which I hope will add more to the life of this very short single player campaign (which took me less that 1 day to complete - in 3 sittings).

This has a great potential for updates and additional maps - which hopefully the developers will take up; especially as the lack of different environments becomes somewhat boring.

Overall I would only give this 3/5, but hope that further updates move it to a least 4/5.
