I know old habits die hard. I just hate how they are slowly conditioning us and tying our hands by making games internet based one time/all the time and bound to bizarre and obnoxious activation processes and codes. mycomputer

Just wait for the next xbox to come out since it is rumored to need 24/7 net connection in order to even turn on.

Since I saw this video, I might need to pick it up to keep my inner child laughing.....Now if only flight sims could have this level of detail for the inner workings.



EDIT: Noticed Magnum also posted a video on pg 2, glad I'm not the only one who chuckled.

Is it just WWII based, finally played the demo. Pretty cool but I think I would only rent this one.

What semi-sequel? There has only been Sniper Elite 1 and now this second one.

That's nothing to do with Sniper Elite though.

Is this out on Steam today? I may opt for the PC version since there are a few people here getting it. The demo was enjoyable ... LOL

Someone go buy it already and let us know! smile

I didn't realize that the PC version is a console port. The price is the same for the PC or the Xbox360 right now, $49.99 USD. I may visit Game Stop this morning and pick up a copy for the console.

It might not be. I have not heard one way or another which is why I am skeptical to buy it on launch.

I have heard that the PC version is far superior and not like a port at all.

Game Stop told me that Sniper Elite v2 isn't out until May 9th so I preordered it.

Yes, you can get it on Steam. Runs beautifully. Still, I'm going 360. I'll pick it up on pc when it hits a good steam sale.
