Reception

The game received "average" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[1]

While the arcade version of Silent Scope received praise for its unique peripheral (players used a model sniper rifle attached to the cabinet), this novelty did not translate into the console version, a fact which reviewers made strong mention of. Most reviews describe the game as mediocre, and attractive only to fans of the core series.[8] Other reviewers noted that, while technically four different games, Silent Scope Complete falls victim to repetitive gameplay. Each mission is essentially the same, varying only in scenery and motive.[5]
