10 Best Sniper Rifles In Video Game History - Ranked
4. The Intervention - Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
When we asked you guys if you thought the Barrett was the best sniper rifle in video game history, a third of you said yes and the rest of you ran to the comments to say, “What the hell, where is the Intervention?”
Here to answer that question is entry number four, here for that very gun, the unstoppable force of bolt action rifles.
The CheyTac Intervention is the ultimate one-shot-kill sniper rifle in Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer due to its high damage output and easy handling. There’s a heated debate over whether or not it’s better than the Barrett rifle and I’ll leave that up to you to sort out in the comments section, but it’s undeniable that either is a super strong choice for COD fans who want to lay out the competition from far away. Arguably one of if not the most iconic sniper rifle on this list, the Intervention earned loads of fans due to its high fire rate, impressive stopping power, and delicious sound effects.
There’s a reason this particular sniper rifle launched a sea of YouTube montages, it’s just that fun to use and it’s just that good.
