Silent Scope (DC) Reviews

Silent Scope, developed by Konami does exactly what it says on the box…… It’s a game all about the phenomenon of ‘sniping’ by using the so called ‘Sniper Rifle’, which has now appeared an my other games mostly in First Person Shooters (FPS). So called Sniping is so popular, most probable ...

I have recently been looking for a half decent shooting game for the dream cast. I was looking through a magazine at reviews of games, and I used to really listen to magazines game reviews up until now at least. An un-official dream cast magazine gave silent scope 3 out of 10 I thought that this game must really suck. I went into electronics ...

A nice little story In the beginning was the word, and the word was "Space". But "Space" was lonely, and so unto the world came a second word, and that word was "Invaders". And Lo, Space Invaders begat Asteroids, which begat Star Wars, which begat Paperboy, which begat Operation Wolf, which begat Silent ...

At first I lived in the ridiculous hope that someone would design a two foot long peripheral to come with the game but Konami have got round that problem with a simplistic joypad control method that actually makes the game much easier to play than its often frustrating coin-op counterpart. Basically you use the D-pad (or analogue stick) in order ...

Sega's latest arcade conversion, 'Silent Scope' made a very welcome entrance onto the DC earlier in the year. Reviews were good and bad. The game was (and still is) a huge hit in the arcades and some said that it wouldn't work on a console (any console, not just the DC). Certainly, the lack of gun was seen as a ...

I was a big fan of the arcade version of Silent Scope having played it in various pubs where it has been installed (drinking six pints of lager doesn’t help your aim!!), so it was one of the first games that I bought for my PS2. The game is a perfect replica of the arcade version with no visible differences in the graphics, which ...

Konami is trying something a bit new here, a gun game sans gun. Yep, the wickedly fun sniping hit Silent Scope has been converted to the Dreamcast and it's arcade perfect, but there is no cool rifle. The game doesn't even work with Sega's House of the Dead gun. Konami don't seem to think this matters, so lets have a go... ...

This game is a lot of fun. It is very difficult, but it contains many different training modes and ranges . The time attack modes are also a lot of fun because you can see how well you are doing against the lowest times in the middle of an attempt to beat your own records. If you're into the gore, you can also make it so blood splatters ...

I bought this game having loved the arcade version. The concept was very original and brought a new angle to the tired light gun genre. I knew that the Dreamcast version wasn't going to use the light gun but i was hoping for the developers to do something clever with the joypad. While what they have done is a good attempt at capturing the ...

This is the Deamcasts version of the Arcade game by Konami and its average. Basically you are a sniper with a high powered rifle who has to negotiate the release of hostages or blow the villains heads off which is maybe why the game is massive in the states. If your into blood and violence this maybe the game for you. There are various ...
