    Enjoy open world Call of Duty, where you meet same stupid AI, same bad graphics on high settings, console controls, horrible dialogues and boring cut scenes (which you can skip immediately). Go and kill whole village of innocent people (except invincible kids), because you can and nobody cares. Try out our awesome depleting silencer, which is completely useless after few shots.

Go and kill whole village of innocent people (except invincible kids), because you can and nobody cares. Try out our awesome depleting silencer, which is completely useless after few shots. But only one thing is different...your teammate is even more stupid a can easily die, fortunately he's only in prologue, where he is giving you some orders and you don't give a f**k and shoot like Rambo anyway. That's it, this is my review for this Far Cry: I don't care where for PS2.… Expand

    Terrible gameplay backed up with a non-existent story, no reason to even think about playing this catastrophe.

    The fool that I was, I decided to play it again, and this time, after the third mission, the "repair" function just stopped working on the silencer on guns, making the game useless and pointless to play (imagine your sniper shot being heard loud and clear each time you shoot someone.)

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

    As for gameplay, the game has a ridiculously long load time and the much-touted "open world" is pointless. It's mostly empty and the only thing you get to do is drive around in your buggy. It's like the devs heard that "open world" is the big thing and threw it in there. Unlike Far Cry, you cannot climb up most hills unless the surfaces have special ledges for you to hang on, which appear only when you press Ctrl near them. Buildings too are a pain to climb. Most can't be climbed.

    Save your money. Buy another game.    … Expand

    I don't like the way they set AntiAliasing as the default and there is no way to turn it off. That's cause laggy and choppy.
    Loading time is too long while Game graphics is terrible.

    I played SGW2, it's bad. And SGW3 even worse.    … Expand

    While not as hyped as a Ubisoft Product this game comes with just as many bugs.

On-top of the horrible frame rates which admittedly could be my GPU's even with two Geforce 650TiB im getting under 25fps with everything set to low and resolution at 1600x1080 thats right I cant even run at 1900+ yet my gpu's are only at 50-60% usage. Moving on this game has its share of bugs with in the first 10-20minutes of game play I was hanging on fences not a full foot off the ground. Falling through church roof tops trying to get a vantage point while evading mines that dont stay marked after you "Scout" them. This game goes so far as to have a gear reset quest, nothing as bad as giving you all the awesome gear then taking it away after a lengthy and unnecessary prologue that frankly I don't care about, which if this foreshadowing is any indicator the "Ghost" is the main protagonist's baby brother. The game actually has a quest that makes you give up all the gear that you have acquired and purchased and has at no point a POI, Quest (side-quest or main) that allows you to go back and pick everything back up that you put in a random dumpster under a windmill that has no discernible marker! I would have given this game a much higher score had it not forced a silencer mechanic into the game that didn't even need to be there in the first place! Having said that I really had high hopes for this game unfortunately I personally feel it feel 9ft short of a 10ft hurdle; thus I cannot and will not recommend this game to anyone that enjoys first person shooters especially with the memory leak… Expand

    Boring, dead (however pretty small) open world with same locations - some outposts that need clearing by shooting 5-10enemies, when you clear that outpost there's nothing else to do in that area, super boring characters, lame story, almost whole main game is getting mission on laptop, going from point A to point B, shooting primary target then getting out of area - repeat. You can compare this game with Far Cry 3 / 4 in a way, only that this game is at least 20 times worse.
    Graphics are mediocre too, very blurry, sh*t anti-aliasing, there's ton of graphical bugs even after all the patches.

    It's super monotonous game, not even worth buying during the sale. The only reason I'm giving it 4 out of 10 is that sniping was kind of fun, for a few hours... It gets boring after 5 hours or so and you'll just probably delete.    … Expand

    i have played this game for 36 hours, i played it from release date... but this is the worst 60 euros i have ever spend! the game is having a lot of bugs (still) and enemys despawn when you get over 350 meters away( most of the time)... its a sniper focused game, and you cant shoot people over 350 meters? this has been an issue since launch... i dont even wanna talk about the optimization,i have played this game for 36 hours, i played it from release date... but this is the worst 60 euros i have ever spend! the game is having a lot of bugs (still) and enemys despawn when you get over 350 meters away( most of the time)... its a sniper focused game, and you cant shoot people over 350 meters? this has been an issue since launch... i dont even wanna talk about the optimization, because... its kinda non existing... and the story, yeah... just forget about that one to!

    multiplayer is almost worse than TAKEDOWN RED SABRE, and that says a lot!

    all in all, dont buy this game for more than 10 euros, and no matter what, dont expect anything from this game!

    After trying the first and second installment, i wanted a third one that was similar to the second in terms of game design, but making it better.

    A slick sniping title in name, but one that also encourages creativity, delivers action, and demands adaptation, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 is one hell of a ride. Although it has a lackluster story and a handful of minor issues, it’s still an immensely enjoyable separatist kill fest set in the gorgeous open-world landscapes of former Soviet Georgia.

    Thrives during missions, but suffers when you're exploring its open world and bearing witness to its odd design choices. [Aug 2017, p.80]

    SGW3 is an uncongenial mix of the failed open-world gameplay combined with useful sniping. It can be recommended only to grimly determined snipers. [Issue#275]
