I don't see a topic about this game! Don't know why! But it's a very decent game to be honest.

Plot:
Plot

The game starts with player taking control of Private Security Consultant Captain Cole Anderson, on the Philippines, with CIA Special Agent Diaz making their way to an old Russian radar post to destroy it while working on a tip that some Mercenaries had assembled there to broker a deal for a Bio-Agent WMD. While Diaz destroys it, he overhears enemy radio chatter about the capture of a spy working for the PSC by the mercenaries. Diaz commands a team to rescue the operative while Anderson makes his way to provide covering fire from a cave overlooking the resort, where the soldier is being held captive and where the supposed deal is scheduled to take place. They save the soldier, however while monitoring the deal Anderson sees one of the dealers to be Merinov, an old aquantaince from his past, and subsequently the entire team is ambushed by an enemy sniper and everyone except Anderson is either killed or captured. Anderson heads to a village to intercept the transfer of the bio-weapon as well as his captured teammates. He manages to rescue Diaz and Gomez just as they are about to be executed, however the Bio-Weapon is lost. Both agents link up with Anderson, but Gomez is killed while escaping from the pursuing mercenaries. After successfully escaping their pursuers Diaz remarks, "It's Sarajevo all over again".
Anderson has been sent to the brig for disobeying direct orders (rescuing his team-mates instead of securing the Bio-Agent WMD which was the primary objective) . He remembers events in Sarajevo, 1993 where he and his spotter Carl Maddox were tasked to take pictures of genocide of Serbian forces led by Marko Vladić. They meet a Russian contact Merinov inside the city. After securing a strategic point and taking the pictures of the genocide, Maddox loses his cool unable to watch the atrocities further, and goes against orders to kill Vladić. Anderson reluctantly follows him. Merinov shows them a collapsed building overlooking Vladić's position. Merinov leaves to find transport for Maddox and Anderson while they ambush the Serbian Commander. Anderson shoots Vladić and they run to the extraction point. There Merinov betrays them to the Serbian forces and they are captured. Anderson escapes to stop Merinov from framing US forces for the genocide. Anderson finds out from command that Maddox is actually a traitor working with Merinov, who manipulated him to kill Vladić leaving his forces free to take part is gun running. He is ordered to kill Maddox instead of Merinov. Anderson shoots Maddox inside a moving jeep and keeps the shell casing of the bullet which he shot Maddox with.
Back in the prison,Diaz visits Cole, informing him that he has pulled in favours to get him out of the brig and back in action with him as they need him to kill Merinov who is ready to sell the Bio-Agent to a Fanatical Jihadi Warlord in Kashmir - a fallout of which could create a war between Pakistan and India and profit Merinov's gun running operation. Diaz and Anderson head to Tibet to assassinate Merinov and recover the WMD. On the way to the deal site they suffer an accident and lose their equipment. After recovering their equipment and escaping a collapsing caveway they finally reach the nest overlooking the ambush site. While aiming to shoot Merinov, Anderson sees Maddox, apparently having survived his shot coming out of the helicopter. Maddox notices them and alerts their own mercenary forces to the ambush. Anderson shoots and kills Merinov through the glass of the helicopter, causing it to crash. Maddox however survives and secures the Bio-Weapon and taunts Anderson to come after him. Diaz and Anderson go after Maddox which eventually leads to Anderson having a sniping duel with Maddox. Finally Anderson shoots and kills Maddox, securing the Bio-Weapon. Diaz asks him if he has anyone waiting for him back at home to which Anderson replies 'My rifle is my best friend, it is my life' and drops the shell he kept for 20 years.



Finished the game in 5 hours, at medium difficulty. You need little bit of patience that's all. The gameplay is pretty easy tbh (or too easy?), I am not a sniper yet found it easy!

I liked the gameplay overall, should play once again at extreme difficulty. Graphics were okay (nowhere near any premium line games but it was not the priority of this game I am sure). Audio surroundings were very good at times, average other times. Dialogues were pretty flat :| However there is no crosshair for the pistol, which is weird, especially when you are given one for your sniper.
Overall I found it good, deserves a 6.25/10, better than any unreal crap at least :| Only one thing I wished, that they made it little harder and challenging, at medium level, unlike the too easiness it had!
Do give your opinion here if you are playing this.

Well there are some games here which doesn't deserve to have a topic. I like sniper games, that's why I thought lets ask others whether they are playing it or not.
Personal preference is always welcome by me, I respect that, but I have respect for the game too and it was definitely worth playing.

I have not even recovered from the shock that is Sniper Ghost Warrior 1. One of the most stupidest endings in the history of gaming.
