It’s official; the iPhone is a successful gaming platform. Today, Konami announced thatSilent Scopeis heading to the App Store “soon.” Excited? You should be. In typicalSilent Scopefashion, you’ll be playing as a hardcore sniper tasked with a major responsibility — save the President and his family from vicious terrorists.
It’s a self-described rail-shooter, so get ready for some edgy “tap-to-shoot game controls” across the game’s three traditional modes: Story, Shooting Range and Time Attack. There’s also a Training Mode, but that doesn’t count — sissies shouldn’t playSilent Scope. Only real men should shoulder the immense burden of finger tapping terrorists to oblivion.
