There’s a new Sniper Elite game coming soon.
On one level this is super-exciting because as a longtime fan of the series I’ve reviewed all of them for Gamecritics, and have watched as the franchise has gradually improved and been perfected over the years by developers with a passion for delivering the most intense stealth and sniping experience possible.
World War Z, the dynamic and extremely replayable co-op zombie shooter, is getting a huge content upgrade this month in the form of the Aftermath update. I was lucky enough to get a chance to play it, and I’ve come away impressed with the changes the developers have made to their already-compelling third person shooter.
HIGH The final battle with #SPACEDEVIL
LOW Spending hours failing to upgrade my vampire.
WTF The Canadian Bear-Man questline.
HIGH Battling a giant floof while wearing power armor.
LOW There’s no excuse for melee combat this awkward.
WTF The giant monster that wears teddy bear-themed pajamas.
HIGH Zipping through a high-tech base as everything explodes around me.
LOW A boss that’s out of bounds and impossible to shoot.
WTF Your enemy in this mission: Meteorites!
HIGH That’s a way more satisfying final boss fight than the original.
LOW Groups of more than two zombies can stun-lock like mad.
WTF I’m sad that the giant worm boss didn’t make the cut.
HIGH I’ll never get tired of killing you, Zombie Hitler.
LOW Waiting two minutes in an empty arena to kill a shield zombie.
WTF That is… a lot of tank.
HIGH Using a magnum kill a licker by shooting through a zombie’s head.
LOW The stories don’t match up?
WTF You are inappropriately flirty given the situation, Claire.
HIGH Using the energy lasso power to disintegrate a crowd of zombies in seconds.
LOW The fleeing relic carriers are far too easy to miss.
WTF The whole final boss fight.
HIGH Using the Meteor spell to wipe everything out.
LOW The bone dragon boss that kills with a one-shot.
WTF The game is set in the dystopic future of… 2013!
