Awesome screens, I loved the first game but I haven't played this one yet. Can you turn off the x-ray effect?

Cool thanks, yeah some of those extra features would be nice, I always thought it was a bit weird how they combined some fairly realistic elements with some very 'arcade' style gameplay at times.

I missed the free offer! Looks like a good one.

It's actually a pretty good mix of stealth an sniping gameplay. The x-ray killcam is a tad to grafical for my tastes but I have to admit it feels pretty rewarding seeing the results of a 200m+ headshot to that pesky enemy sniper.

The SE games are probably the closest we'll come to anymore H&D games.

H&D an all time classic. Probably just as well that we don't get a HD3, it'd probably be free-to-play MMO Shot through the scope

Being sick off work gives you plenty of time for videogames. Edit: Screenshot thread needs screenshots Atmosphere
