Sniper elite 5

Am I just a stickler?  I could never enjoy this series because I hated the ballistic difference between using a scoped rifle and using a pistol/SMG/etc.  I was literally a better marksman with the hit-scan insta-shot Welrod than with clunky-ass scoped rifles that apparently shoot musket balls instead of rifled bullets

I am complete opposite, much better with the sniper rifle.  Although decent with the pistol, I often try and be precise with head shots where it doesn't always go the way I planned.  With the other guns that I pick up, usually only use when in an immediate firefight which typically is in a hectic situation where I am not very accurate.  The earlier games seemed to have much more sniping opportunities as it seems with each new version they introduce more run/gun type stuff, which I actually wish they would stay away from as there are plenty of other games that accomplish that.

Sniper Elite series certainly isn't going to win many/any awards and it definitely is a formula they largely repeat with each version, but for me, I am totally fine with it.  Something about it satisfies me unlike other FPS games.....the only series of games that I have ever completed from start to finish.  I would be just as happy if they just continued to release DLC missions versus whole new versions as its "good enough" for me at the moment.

The x ray cam grossed me out and delighted me at the same time in these games.

You always remember your first...

Testicle shot cam

is this known as the Mantle Cam?
