I had originally seen this in theaters, and it was definitely a great purchase. Jake Gyllenhal played a great role, and the supporting cast from 50 cent to Forest Whitaker also did very well.
Similar in feel to a Rocky Balboa movie. but more grounded in a sense.

They were a gift for my girlfriend, and she is in love with them. Every trip she takes now, she has these in her ears. They appear easy to use and easily charge.
You take in a deep breath and slowly exhale. The only sound that registers in your brain is that of your heartbeat, seemingly in slow motion. Some corner of your mind is calculating wind speed, how far away your target is, drop ratios, bullet trajectory and all of the tiny elements that could ruin your shot, but in this moment you're operating on pure instinct and adrenaline. In the tiny space between heartbeats, you squeeze the trigger and see your target drop. The sound of the shot and the smell of gunpowder make time suddenly speed up, and you move on to the next target. Silent, stealthy and swift, you are the Ghost Warrior and you have accomplished your mission.Slip on the ghillie suit of a lethal Special Ops assassin in Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2. Hone your skills in urban, jungle, and mountain environments that incorporate real-life factors of wind speed, distance, limited visibility and more into your experience. Not to worry, you have a spotter on hand to set up each shot and the luxury of night- and thermo-vision goggles so that no matter what the conditions, you'll be able to eliminate your target. Stunning visuals brought to life by the CryEngine3 technology immerse you in the mission, while the Bullet Cam mode ensures that you get to revel in your best shots. Sniping is an art and in Ghost Warrior 2 you get to be Michelangelo.

Bought this as a Christmas gift, and when we started playing it seemed like a standard run of the shooter. It felt like a Call of Duty or Battlefield clone, and to me, didn't really achieve a goal of making it unique in the genre. For the price, however, it was good buy, and if you're into sneaking around and not going all Rambo 24/7 this might be a good game for you. If nothing else, it will boost your achievements and completion ratios.
The Nunchuk controller and the accelerometer contained within help you do more in your favorite games. Enjoy immersive gameplay that lets you rely on natural motions for success.

The second accessory needed to successfully play the Wii, with the remote. Personally not my cup of tea, I prefer the controllers, but when I used the remote/chuck combo it feels like it would be great for some games and not others. My brother on the other hand, loves the freedom it gives him, so I recommend you try a demo of one in the Best-Buy store, or at a friends before purchase to see if it's right for you.

I personally prefer controllers to Wii Remotes, so this was a first day purchase for me. Controls are simple, and the fit in my hand fine. Recommended if you're like me and don't you're hands doing two different things at once, like Wii-chucking and stabbing.
