Shooter The Official Movie Game 1.2 iPhone iPod Touch

One of the first movie inspired iPhone games and it aint too shabby.Even the iPhone cannot escape the dreaded genre: The game of the movie. Bizarrely, the recently released Shooter game for the iPhone links back to the Shooter film that came out nearly ywo years ago. Either that's a seriously long time in QA or someone doesn't know how to use a calendar.
The game closely follows the film and if you haven't seen it (or forgotten what happened all those moons ago), here's a quick round-up. Two US military snipers are left for dead in Ethiopia after a mission goes wrong (and one does die). Lone sniper retires for an easy life but years later is framed for an assassination attempt on the President. Said innocent sniper then goes on what is essentially a killing spree to clear his name and unravel the plot. The game itself tries really hard to be the iPhone's Metal Gear (at least before it is actually released). There are long introductions before each mission and there's even actors' voices to accompany the on screen script. Unfortunately it doesn't quite work as well as they intended but they get brownie points for trying.

The action itself is split across 6 missions with each having 5 sub-missions. The game is for the most part a sniper/Silent Scope style game but there are a few variations to mix things up. The sniper missions all follow the same sort of pattern. After selecting your rifle and camouflage/armour you need to find your enemy group by using the binoculars. Tilt the handset to line up the red marks and then press the lower right button on the screen to move to the sniper mode. This is where you get to zoom in on the enemy zone; again tilt the handset to pan across the area and locate the soldiers. The settings are quite sensitive but these can be fine tuned in the game options. To make things a little easier, you can press the lower left button to hold your breath. This will steady your aim and you can still fine tune your aim for the coveted head shot. Press the right button to shoot. Wind is the sniper's other enemy and the later levels will require you to accommodate for this as well. With the correct scope, it's easy to judge where you should be aiming if only everybody would stop moving.
