Sniper: Ghost Warrior

Bare bones sniper game, no crazy gimmick, no 3-hour cutscenes, no annoying colored haired character that won't shut up, just a soldier and his gun. Expect to shoot, move forward, and shoot some more, no questions asked.


If you can, try looking around the environment because the map makers went crazy with the beautiful landscapes and designs. The insane impossible waterfalls and how there's just buildings and bonfires in areas you'll never notice unless you looked. This game blew my expectations out of the water. Great sniping, great shooting.

10/10 highly recommend to those burnt out by modern gaming and millennial writing.

Mostly because they left the MP achievements on , but they took the MP servers offline .. so it's impossible to get them ... The game was nice tho ..

One downside is that the main menu and the intro was black and white , and the image was flipped upside-down... ( the gameplay itself was oke)

I don't recommend if you want to get all achievements ( yes , most of players care about them )

But i do recommend if you want just to play without any expectation .. The game overall is very short ( compared to nowadays releases ) , but i enjoyed sniping the enemies down :D

Game doesnt play well on modern pc. Missions are very linear and scripted. Better grab COD instead if you wanna play a scripted linear FPS. Or Sniper Elite if you really wanna snipe enemies.

If you like sniper games avoid this at all costs. You get a sniper rifle in the first few stages and thats it.

Unrealistic and awkward clunky game play with dumb friendly AI.

lots of fun

楽しかった

eee

Very good camp

Very Nostalgic
Amazing Gameplay

game is fun but my god the bugs and glitches lol especially the dlc

it has a nice storyline and i like it

Old game with lots of bugs. My game got corrupted (according to community answers that didn't fix the issue, suggesting to verify integrity of files) or soft locked at "find the documents" off the motor pontoon into the village facing backwards.

mandatory direct assault missions where you have to fight enemies while using the most inaccurate, low damage gun I've had the displeasure of using in a game. don't worry though, your enemies accuracy is unaffected by this, and they will shred you in seconds. the sniping is fine, maybe it was good for when it came out, but to have to fight through that bullshit just to get one or two missions of sniping, and then back to cod and stalker's inbred child that was flung at a wall? not worth it. maybe it's bearable on low difficulties, but it's asinine to have to jump between high difficulty for good sniper game-play, and low difficulty for a bearable slog. buy the contracts series, or just play sniper elite, it never had this issue.

"Sniping" game that falls flat of the very thing it claims to be. The parts where you actually get to sneak around and snipe felt somewhat fun. Most of the time, however, the npc stealth detection would catch you in unknown ways or you are forced to trudge through the atrocious gunplay of the firefight sequences.

Id buy that for a dollar....

its not that good..... but if you get it for a buck you can atleast see where the franchise started. It gets way better then this.

fun to play a classic

DO NOT PURCHASE THIS GAME. THERE IS NO SUPPORT FOR IT. IT DOES NOT RUN.

the game will not load , the screen is black

oyun berbat, yapay zeka berbat adamlar gordugu gibi vuruyor. bolum tasarimi desen yok. puanim 2/10

Me see enemy me shoot... enemy sees me through wall and runs at me full speed

would recommend

Good game, good game.

The mechanics are so clunky... It's not UNplayable, but it's not much fun to play either.

People who call this game "good" is definitely blinded by nostalgia, the shooting is janky and the guns is a fucking pain in the ass just to shoot at not even satisfying to look at, the story is very mismashed, and the level where we had to shoot the helicopter passenger is just plain impossible to finish.

In short: this game is ass, skip to 2 or 3 instead, still janky, but at least they're still fun to play.

This game has WAAAAY too much bugs. Snipe around a corner and the gun fires no where.
Fire from below, up to the bad guy and 90% of the time nothing happens.
Crawling under a bridge, then up a small hill and then into a weird ditch which you can not jump out of... check.
Shoot a bad guy who then dies and THEN he shouts out in pain which then sets off an alarm.. check.
Snipe a guy on a boat (head shot) and you actually see the blood coming out of him but he survives... check.
Intro animations all inverted.. check.
Shoot anyone from WAAAAAAAY back with plants all around you and then THEY FIND YOU and start shooting you perfectly within a second... check.
Even with all of these problem... I had a blast!

Sniper: Ghost Warrior is a great start to the SGW series which gets better with every game.

stupid game

Game is good if have not played sniper games 🎮 and the stealth and gameplay is good for 2010 game !

its a very fun and interactive shooting game nicely made

This game TRASH do not BUY THIS you're not missing out.

Good for someone who seeks old school type.

What an amazing game ! I wished I had found it earlier ! It offers two features that I like a lot : playing as a sniper and playing in jungles ! The graphics are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G and I played it in December of 2024 , that is almost 2025 . It's a 2010 game and yet - as far as concerning the graphics - it looks a lot like Far Cry 3 which came out in 2012 . Of course Far Cry 3 is an open world game which Sniper 1 is not , yet the game quite often offers the player alternative paths to follow in order to reach its destination . I've read negative reviews about the game , but honestly I couldn't agree with them . Yes , sure , there are some moments where some soldiers can suddenly see you from a great distance and other moments where a nearby soldier can't understand a thing despite close to him you just shot down one of his comrades . In fact there was a case when I truly walked in front a soldier and he simply could not see me ! I suppose that soldier was left there by mistake or who knows what kind of programmatical error that was . But such things are not uncommon in games , moreover in older ones . So , all in all , that was a great game and even replayed two missions ! It was so fun exploring and watching all those wonderful graphics . I truly felt pity when I finished it !

My experience after 100% the game (without multiplayer achievement):
You cannot play this "sniper" games like an actual "sniper" and most of the mission is literally just COD based gameplay. Some mission gave the player a non-suppress sniper, when the other mission had suppress sniper (its just doesn't make sense).
Machine gun recoil is literally unplayable, it is design somewhat like a sniper where you're supposed to just shoot one bullet at a time, combine that with the hardest difficulty where the enemy can aimbot you 1 second after you get in their vision.

HASSİKTİR ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

You know, this would be a better game if just occasionally JUST ONE SINGLE THING went vaguely according to the mission plan. But as it is, I have yet to encounter ONE SINGLE SCENARIO in which the first thing that happens is NOT "Everything goes to shit". There's an extra enemy sniper who's invisible until he opens fire. The target gets a scripted escape. Your spotter is shot by an enemy who spawns out of nowhere in a previously clear spot during a cut scene.

Eh, take off, hoser. This is not fun.

Truly a bad game! I've completed the whole campaign and the bonus mission but I have given up at the challenge mission.
Your movement are terrible sometimes a minor bump in the terrain block you at all when crawling sometimes not sometimes you are forced to jump whe you are supposed to move silently.
As a sniper you should be able to clear an outpost from distance when you have the chance but here you can't since enemies pop up from nowere only when you approach, and they know exactly were you are, even if 200m far away, you at the countrary have to carefully search them.
In general the game is way to easy but you will die anyway because it's unfair in it's mechanics

Don't waste your time, I played this as a wee lad when is released on the xbox 360 and somehow I remember enjoying it, but playing it today has been nothing but a massive headache, I was completely bewildered to see this came out in 2010, it feels and looks like an old 90's PC delta force game but worse. I dont want to have to write a list of all the bad stuff I dealt with in the first 2 hours of playing, just take my word for it and dont bother yourself please.

Эта игра... Этот "вестерн" в джунглях южной америки. Чистейший пример "плохо польсокого шутера".
"Вестерн" это моя сатира на то что игра создана на движке Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood.
И это заметно ужасным упарвлением.
Графикой "лучше среднего"
И сюжет который не стоит и пирога с капустой
А ну и ИИ который с АК способен вам попасть в оба глаза с 800м

Sniper ghost warrior is a great game to play, and good story.

This game ran very well without any crashes.

if you are playing on a laptop id recommend capping the frames to 60FPS as it can get very noisy with the fans.

The graphics are very well done for an older game.

The multiplayer side is dead as the servers are offline but you can play with friends via LAN or just install steams dedicated server and play on private server.

i would recommend this game

6/10

I've re-played the game to obtain a few more achievements. It's been quite a long time since I played it for the first time (8-10 yrs?), and I remember I enjoyed it, or perhaps it was another game, who knows... Anyway:

The second re-play was a disapointment. I don't mind corridors, but when you cannot crawl under a fence and you can't jump over it, it's a pain... After saving you're often stuck and can't move forward until you stand up or back a bit and then try again... While crawling you get stuck a lot... When you climb a watchtower, I found it difficult to get down on the ladder again. Sometimes I managed to jump down and it was ok, other times I jumped and lost 70% health... In one of the missions I had to snipe from a tower and the enemies down there were hitting me hard... On other occasions the enemy shoots you from five meters several times and you suffer no damage... While sneaking into an enemy camp you snipe without a suppressor (because you don't have one at that moment) and nobody cares... You kill an enemy and others walk around and don't care as well... The indicator showing that you are visible to enemy is small, so I often didn't notice I was being watched... Also, I would place it elsewhere, not at the bottom center, as I found it hard to distinguish from the background when not looking directly at it... I could go on like that on and on.

Regarding enemies: To be fair, I'm a casual player and I played on the lowest difficulty - I can't tell if playing on normal / hard has any impact on the enemy's behaviour.

Graphics is perfectly ok to me, given the year of release.

Bottom line: There are other sniping games to choose from. If you skip this one, you won't miss anything.

👍

While Sniper Ghost Warrior can still keep you busy offline, it feels incomplete; it does not provide the whole experience. The single-player mode presents very good, if somewhat limited, sniper thrills, but the multiplayer is needed to provide that competitive edge and give the game a real social experience. At present, the game is more suited to someone with solitary, methodical sniper fantasies; blessedly, without the servers, this game is only partially complete.

Rating: 6/10
Great mechanics, but takes out the heart-and-soul of multiplayer. Hopefully, that functionality will get up and running again to pump life back into the game.

This game for a stealth fps game focused on sniping didn't hit well for me. The game has missions where you go through levels in stealth. There are missions where you action moments like it's COD but that's pretty hard too. The game mechanics aren't anything worth talking about for me since they mostly focus on sniping. You can spot enemies but that doesn't help that much for me since I get caught a lot I don't play that many stealth games and this game makes it hard to get through for sections where you have not to get spotted at all. Your AI teammates are dumb when it comes to shooting. There were times when they were right in front of the enemy and still missed their shots. The story isn't worth talking about since I did not focus on the story at all. Also, the game's story is pretty short so you can play through the game easily in under 4 hours depending on the game difficulty you play on. I give this game a 5 out of 10. If you want to get the game yourself get it when it's on sale since it's pretty cheap If you want to experience it yourself.

Was reading negative comments about this one, but there is nothing wrong with the game, yes it's old, but that's it - it's ok game to play if you like sniping etc...and even visually it's still ok.

clunky old mess, but has its moments

"illogically hard"

For some reason when the game starts all the intro is mirrored and upside down but the writing is the correct way. No idea what's going on there but when the game loads it's still mirrored but the writing is the correct way.
