    The Wii U version of Sniper Elite V2 misses the mark and is inferior to the game on other platforms.

    The absence of multiplayer and DLC options in the Wii U version neuters V2’s lifespan like a Karabiner round to the crotch, so if you value those and have the option to play elsewhere you’ll have a better experience.

    Never has a game veered so aggressively from 80 per cent-rated fun to 30 per cent-rated horror, but the same could be said of the 360/PS3 original. Wii U comes with the added sting of having all the multiplayer and co-op options hacked out, leaving only a samey survival mode (fight waves of Nazis in repurposed levels) to pad out a brisk campaign.

    The Wii U version of Sniper Elite V2 is really just a bad port that we can't recommend to anyone who has access to literally any other version of the game.

    Sniper Elite V2 for the Wii U is a travesty. I really enjoyed the campaign, but stripping out half of the features and asking full price is criminal.

    I think this game is one of the best games on the wii u. I have 15h playtime with this game. It isn't much innovative but it is fun to playI think this game is one of the best games on the wii u. I have 15h playtime with this game. It isn't much innovative but it is fun to play this game because the controls are good, the enemys are not that stupid like in a call of duty. the slow motion is also funny. The story is not that complicated and the setting is, although it plays in ww2, fresh because it is 1945 in the destroyed berlin. after 12h story there is a challenge mode.… Full Review »

    this being the first game i have played in the series i thought it was quite enjoyable. the missing functions from its Xbox360/ PS3this being the first game i have played in the series i thought it was quite enjoyable. the missing functions from its Xbox360/ PS3 counterparts are a little upsetting but it in no way hindered my ability to enjoy the game. Overall i would say it is definitely worth the pick up for any Wii U owners out there that enjoy more stealthy shooters.… Full Review »
