Ah, February. While it's not quite the miserable depths of winter that define December and January, it's still chilly enough that you can easily excuse yourself from outdoor activities, wrap up in a warm American flag, and blast Nazis in Sniper Elite V2. Luckily, Xbox Live Gold members can do so for free with their 'Games with Gold' program.
The PC version of Sniper Elite V2 is available to download for free, starting right now on Steam. You can download the title and own it forever if you install it before June 5th at 1PM Eastern. No doubt Rebellion and publisher 505 Games are running the promotion in order build up hype for the upcoming Sniper Elite 3.
The Indie Royale Bundle has unveiled its latest offering, packing together a handful of games for a low "pay pretty much whatever you want" price. As long as you beat the minimum, of course. This bundle is dubbed the Spiral Groove Bundle and it's all about action games. And what makes an action game even more actioney? The chance to show off your skills in co-op! All four of the games currently featured have co-op modes, so you can stop worrying about how you were going to fritter away your weekend instead of doing something that, I don't know, solves world hunger or something like that. Whew.
The launch of Sniper Elite V2 for the Wii U hasn’t gone as well as we’d all hope. Though we’ve been covering the game’s online co-op component for some time now, we regret to inform our co-op audience that Nintendo’s version of Sniper Elite V2 does not contain the co-op modes we’ve been expecting.
With all the excitement yesterday I forgot to mention Sniper Elite V2 is now available on the Nintendo Wii U. Okay, there wasn't really that much excitement -but someone may have left this fun little shooter off the Co-Op Release alert for this week because the same someone may have made a typo when entering the game into the database. What's the difference between 21 and 31? About ten days. Oh well.
Rebellion and 505 Games recently released Sniper Elite V2’s “Game of the Year” Edition in Europe, including every piece of bonus content ever released in one, complete package. For US residents, however, we’ll be given our version of this bundle later this month.
Expect some more mature titles to arrive for the Nintendo Wii U’s every growing game lineup. Recently, one of the many exciting games to come, Sniper Elite V2, has officially cemented itself as an upcoming Wii U title.
Sniping has always been a staple in shooter titles, but it takes a truly special game, such as Sniper Elite V2, to take it to a whole new level, specifically for co-op gamers. After listening to their fans frequent requests for more co-op related content in the game, developer Rebellion is giving them exactly what they want with a specifically designed update solely for co-op gaming!
Jason On the heels of his return from E3, I asked Andrew what game he wanted to play for our This Week in Co-Op piece. “I’m feeling something shooty,” he said. “Have you tried that Sniper Elite V2 game yet?” I had not. It was a game that had flown under my radar, but I was willing to give it a shot. The backup plan was Outland, a game that is decidedly not “shooty,” but still fun. So after I got home from work, I downloaded the demo and started playing. Within the first minute of play, I watched my slow motion bullet tear through a guy’s skull and explode out the other side...
Sniper Elite V2 boasted one of the most interesting and fun preorder DLC bonuses in recent memory - the 'Assassinate the Fuhrer' mission. The game takes place during the closing days of World War II, a time when der Führer's number was just about up. As such, the mission provides the ultimate WWII sniping fantasy. Gamers who waited for our co-op review before buying and missed out on the bonus can fret no longer, as it goes on sale to all next week.
Do you fancy yourself a digital version of Simo Häyhä? Do you spend most of your FPS time behind a scope, obliterating any enemy soldiers foolish enough to come under your crosshairs? Then Sniper Elite V2 may be the game for you. The WWII title is a hybrid of third-person shooting and first-person sniping. Its big selling point (other than the online co-op modes) are the gory X-ray kills, because sometimes a fine red mist just isn't good enough. Check out the launch trailer to see what I mean.
