* {{Sequelitis}}: While ''The Sniper'' was no masterpiece, it had least had a neat presentation and charm to make up for the game's barebones plot. The sequel, however, has worse gameplay, dated graphics (despite running on next-gen hardware), and none of the first game's visual style to make up for its lackluster story.

* {{Narm}}: All over the place. The game's story really wants to be taken seriously, but a combination of a clumsy English dub, bad writing, out of place soundtrack, and awkward cutscene direction render all the game's attempts at drama moot.



* SoBadItsGood: The cutscenes are horribly animated, the story often makes up twists that don't go anywhere, and the voice acting is incredibly stilted, but they provide more enjoyment than the actual gameplay.

* CompleteMonster:
** [[CorruptPolitician Senator Belini]] is the true mastermind behind the Tacklmacain conspiracy. Hoping to spread Tacklmacain across the entire world [[PoisonAndCureGambit in order to sell vaccines]], Belini partners with the Bernaldi Family to acquire the Tacklmacain and kill anybody who stands in their way, with his {{greed}} resulting in numerous deaths. Once Bernaldi bites it, Belini arrives to put an end to protagonist Harry Spencer.
** [[TheHeavy Robert Bernaldi]] is [[TheDon the head]] of the Bernaldi Family who joined Belini's conspiracy for money. Forcing UsefulNotes/{{CIA}} Agent Gabriel Armitage to act as his attack dog by threatening the life of his girlfriend Cindy Miller, Bernaldi had Gabriel kill countless people and betray all his friends for fun, even using him to steal the Tacklmacain from the CIA. Using Cindy as a mole to ensure his opponents don't get in his way, Bernaldi gives Belini warheads to further spread Tacklmacain across the entire world, and once they've been disarmed, Bernaldi attempts to hold C.A. hostage while bragging to Gabriel how he's won again.
* MagnificentBastard: [[AntiVillain Gabriel "Gabe" Armitage]] is a former CIA agent turned [[ProfessionalKiller assassin]] who seeks revenge on those who ruined his life. Kidnapping C.A. during a gunfight and holding her hostage, Gabe creates a cure for the Tacklmacain virus using her special blood. Looking to stop the mafia's plan to launch Tacklmacain across America with a warhead to sell fake vaccines, Gabe deduces that his former boss Robert Bernaldi and Senator Belini are the masterminds, assisting Harry Spencer in taking them both out and dismantling the warhead. Using his final moments to locate his ex-girlfriend, traitorous CIA agent Abby, Gabe is able to shrug off her bullets and kill her, concluding his revenge.
* SoBadItsGood: The cutscenes are horribly animated, the story is braindead that often makes up twists that don't go anywhere, and the voice acting is incredibly stilted, but they provide more enjoyment than the actual gameplay.
