The last couple of months have been fantastic for the gaming masses with hits such as Starhawk, Journey, Prototype 2, and Max Payne 3. However, with so many great titles being released (both digital and retail) there will always be a few that slip under the radar.
Despite our middling review of Rebellion’s Sniper Elite V2, for a budget title, it actually has a fair few pleasant surprises in store for FPS fans.
If you’ve been sat on the fence or simply can’t saddle up an extra thirty quid during the mid-year gaming rush then you’re in luck because we’re giving wannabe sharpshooters a chance to win a PS3 copy of the game. All you have to do is compete in our Shoot-Out Challenge.
The rules are simple. Displayed in the gallery below are 10 images, each one being stripped from the cover art of PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 games that have been released within the last couple of years.
Your task is to guess which games are being depicted. Once you’ve got your answer nailed down, number them one to ten and email them to jim[at]thesixthaxis[dot]com.
- This competition is for one PlayStation 3 copy of 505 Games’ Sniper Elite V2.
- Competitors must reside with the EU.
- Entrants must number their answers 1-10 (from the first gallery image to the last).
- All entries must be sent to the following e-mail address: jim[at]thesixthaxis[dot]com.
- Be sure to attach your TSA username to your answers. There can only be one entry per account.
- In the event of a draw, we will select one of the winning competitors at random. This decision will be final.
- No cash alternatives.
- Our normal Terms apply.
Entries will close June 4th at 5pm, the winner being chosen shortly after and notified via e-mail. The prize will be dispatched promptly, and should take no longer than a week to arrive.
Good luck!

What a top idea for a competition. Stuck on two of them though. Arses.
Rocket_345
Know most of them. Few ive got a vague idea about. But there’s atleast one that doesn’t look familar. Will have a tidy look later though.

Awesome competition idea. Shame I appear to be absolutely crap at it though.
Jim Hargreaves
Give it a shot anyway fella. You don’t know how well you’ll do stacked against our other readers.
Origami Killer
Couldn’t help but laugh at that unintentional pun.
Will be giving this a go.
theberzerka
I might not be as bad as I think. I’m going to take my time and see if I can scope them out ;)
Jim Hargreaves
Oh, unintentional was it? ;)
Origami Killer
ha! well it was sneaky!
Manorhowze
I would like to echo that. Great idea but I have no idea on most of them. Will give it a go over the weekend though.
FalconRedux
I agree, great idea for a competition. I got the first few no problem, but some I have no clue about. Might as well enter anyway!

So am I thinking right that you are supposed to pick the game/games that have not been released yet?
Kivi95
Or is their another word for “depicted” ? I Have no idea what that word mean :P.
uncharted86
No, they have all 10 been released. You have to guess from which game covers the 10 pictures are from :)
Kivi95
Ah okey thank you :). Won’t be a problem then :D.

number 3 had me i had a hunchs but i had a bloody great sticker over the image.
believe me its not a 9 out of 10 game by any stretch of the imagination….
gordon123
#6 does not exist!
wonkey-willy
i agree its very similar to what i think it is but the gun is different on my box?
gordon123
I’ve gone through pretty much every single shooter since 2009… and this never shows up
BrendanCalls
I cant find any evidence of no.6 either. 2 hours looking at over 1000 shooters. Its driven me nuts. Time for bed and ill try again tomorrow
Jim Hargreaves
You’ll kick yourselves when number 6 is revealed.
BrendanCalls
Really? I spent another hour this morning trawling amazon and Wikipedia but to no avail.
I feel like kicking myself now :-D
