COD is just people quick scoping and the maps arent big enough to properly snipe. At least in BF you have bullet drop which makes it somewhat more realistic.

And pistols that drop you at over a mile, and barrets that cause grazes at point blank ranges lol

Which game are you referring to now? Assuming COD/MW as there is no barrett in BF3.

Sbiper Elite 2 is due out sometime this year. The first one was class on the old PS2/X-Box so this one is supposed to be better from what i've read on it in the magazines. Ghost Warrior isn't really bad it's just not up the level most of the other shooters are. If you wan't sniping, sniping and some more sniping it's worth a look. I'm sure it'll be available at a knock down price amazon/play by now.
For an out and out shooter it's MW or COD. If you're like me and enjoy picking people off from a mile away all thats out there at the minute is Ghost Warrior till Sniper Elite 2 comes out!

Yeah I play COD, I just fancied a `proper` sniper based game where you have missions to complete (like the film Sniper with Tom Berenger)

I've been on the look out for a cheap copy of SGW, Play have the x-box version for £10.99 but want £39.99 for the PS3 version !!

Even on e-bay they still go for good money.

An old pc game series I loved for sniping was Delta Force. This was before the days of xbox etc but the maps were fantastic with proper bullet drop over range and the barrett being the weapon of choice. Go out on the edges of the map up into the hills and pick people off running about the buildings in the middle of the map. Spent so much time on line with mates on this game series far more than all my 360 and ps3 online play put together!
