@Knight While it has a SP campaogn, sorta, it's primarily a MP game so I think it does need an online connection. Will let you know when I boot it up later.
Observe, Plan, Execute, ADAPT in the only tactical sniping game developed for next-generation consoles.
The latest chapter in the award winning series, Sniper Elite 3 takes players to the unforgiving yet exotic terrain of WW2’s North Africa conflict in a battle against a deadly new foe.
Equipped with Tiger tanks and the latest weaponry, Germany’s infamous Afrika Korps have the Allies outnumbered and outgunned. Worse still, intelligence indicates the Nazis are developing a super weapon in Africa that could destroy all hopes of victory not just in Africa, but in the whole war.
It must end here. You are the turning point. Because one bullet can change history...

Some say Hitler shot himself in a bunker in Berlin in 1945. Others believe he fell to a sniper bullet two years earlier during a secret trip to North Africa. Or was it his double? Decide for yourself when you get your hands on Sniper Elite 3’s pre-purchase DLC mission “Target Hitler: Hunt The Grey Wolf. Featuring an expansive open environment, and randomized target identities, journals and locations, no two playthroughs will be the same. The question is – can you tell fact from fiction, the real target from the double?
I checked some old gen/new gen gameplay! & looks like old gen got a pretty decent port
Yes new gen looks better, but old gen looks surprisingly good as well!

The paid DLC includes the three-part Save Churchill campaign, as well as six different weapon packs.
Ultimate Edition will be released on Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360 and PS3 (but not PC) on March 10.
Awesome game except the longest shot is only 684m and is incredibly hard to pull off.....
Nothing better than pulling the trigger and bam!!! bullet time to rip off the bad guys face.....
Or the testicle shot after a incapacitated shot the best yet....
Awesome game except the longest shot is only 684m and is incredibly hard to pull off.....
Well, I suppose it depends on what gun you get to use. A 684m Shot with a 50 Caliber M107 Barret is Lame, that gun can hit that target without even caring about wind speed, heat, nor angles you shooting at, heck, you can shoot precision shots at 2000 meters with that gun. But if they give you a 1895 Lee-Enfield or a 1905 Ross Rifle, then 684m becomes quite a feet to pull off, especially in windy and dense areas

& you got to take into account the Coriolis effect!
It's not as easy as people might think - there are only 7 recorded sniper kills at 2000m, one by a SA SF sniper in 2013. The longest range was 2,475m with .338 Lapua Magnum by Household Calvary marksman.
