If you go into this title knowing exactly what you are getting and have no issues with a shooter that has a slower approach, then there is plenty to enjoy here.

With only a few hiccups, Sniper Elite: Contracts finds the fine line between action arcade and sniper simulation. While the story might be forgettable, landing the perfect shot from 500 meters away never stops being awesome.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts offers a completely unique shooter, far better than its predecessors and absolutely noteworthy in the FPS genre as a whole. But players will need a love for stealth, slow gameplay, and the patience of a saint in order to properly enjoy it.

As it is, there's more than enough of the sniping action to see the game over the line, but at times the successes of Contracts do feel like they come despite the development team's best efforts.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is an awful misfire that proves CI Games still doesn't know what it wants to do with its franchise. Though the game's sniping mechanics create intense and exciting moments, its core gameplay and story are incredibly mediocre and on top of that bugs and technical issues constantly ruin any motivation you have for finishing the game.

A stealth shooter that covers well-trodden ground and offers few surprises but will please fans of the genre with its manageable length and fair price.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is the most average game I have ever played. Nothing it does is particularly memorable or amazing, but it isn't broken or bad either. The gameplay can be both enjoyable and clunky depending on the situation. The story is forgettable and environments aren't appealing. But, the game's open-ended levels and tick box-style gameplay make it a great game to play whilst listening to a podcast. Overall, it is a half-step forward for the franchise, but much like the previous games, there isn't much reason to check this entry out.

Contracts is a signal to the world that the Sniper Ghost Warrior franchise is no longer content on being a niche franchise. It is coming for the stealth big boys

Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts isn't the prettiest game and certainly not the most accessible, but it's an enjoyable budget title, and worth picking up for fans of stealth-based action.

While the game has a great arsenal and fun bullet trajectory mechanics, the sniping never really felt like it lasted long enough before alarms sounded, and enemies began to swarm.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts can be appreciated for what it is: a sniping game far from perfect but ready to engage the player without exceeding, which can be taken home at an affordable price..

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts excels in the art of sniping, but doesn't offer anything else.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is very fun and sniping in this game is excellent. however, missions are repetitive and the game is not that advanced technically.

Sniper in Hitman style with suit from Crysis - it works! Just AI and maps should be improved.

An experience for those focused and patient snipers, but the performance issues may hamper the immersion and fun in a world with a structure that only has so much to offer.

Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is a game for those who like to enjoy the feeling of infiltrating, moving freely and meticulously studying their targets before carrying out the final attack. Although isn't a triple A, the game give us what is expected of him.

When Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts works, it works amazingly well. The process of spotting, planning, and sniping makes for a tense, engaging experience, especially given the expansive maps that almost always provide multiple vantage points and approaches. However, the game too often demands that players close the gap and suffers as a result. Although Seeker’s toolkit is filled with toys, too many rely on noise, and the enemies flock to the slightest sign of the player’s presence, making the game tougher than will likely be enjoyable for many. Add to that the bugs that, although not game-breaking, are annoying and a story that is not much of a story at all, and Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts falls short of its ambitions. Maybe next time, CI Games will have its scope calibrated properly.
