Spec Ops: The Line

This game is so good that I can't think of a better 3rd person shooter! For a shooter, there is a very interesting plot with deep meaning (for example, the upside-down flag in the main menu was made for a reason). The music is simply magnificent (it was written by bands such as Deep Purple and The Black Angels), personally, it sounded in my head for a long time, and I’m also glad that it turns on on time. The partner bots are very smart: if you ask to kill a sniper or someone else, they kill you (very helpful on the last difficulty), they tell you where to shoot if they see the most dangerous enemy (sniper, juggernaut) or cracks with sand... Speaking of sand — it’s everywhere, there are scripted places in the game, when you shoot at them a wave of sand breaks out, sweeping away everything … Read full

The game is a third-person shooter, the plot takes place in Dubai, people whose faces are wrapped in rags have captured an American unit that went there for reconnaissance, and in the meantime we will fight for a brave soldier who has two partners, who by the way are real help. We set off to rescue the first group, and here a real massacre unfolds, throughout the game you are attacked by hundreds and hundreds of enemies, and a strong arsenal of machine guns, shotguns, pistols, as well as various types of grenades and a rocket launcher will help you fight them off. Since we are in the desert, let the sand help us, which, if we have the ingenuity, can be thrown at the enemy. Personally, I’ve only completed half of the game so far and I really like it, not only for the shooting but also for t… Read full

The game is quite ambiguous and contradictory. But due to the truly small number of good TPS on PC, it can still be recommended for completion.

Graphics: Since the game came out quite a long time ago, you won’t see much miracles here, but thanks to the good work of the designers and the rapid progression through the levels, you don’t pay much attention to it. Even in 2012 they knew how to draw special effects, and you don’t have to worry about the safety of your eyes.

Plot: In my opinion, this is the main advantage of the game. A very good plot for a shooter. It is presented in a non-intrusive and pleasant manner; there are additional materials, and even “unexpected turns” during the course of the story. There are even the now popular “moral conclusions”.

Gameplay: Here, unfortunately, the g… Read full

For some reason, the release of this game went unnoticed by many, and this is bad. The game has crooked gameplay, the player-enemy balance is poor, but there is simply a great plot. I won’t say anything special about him, only that a detachment of 4 people from the US Army is sent to search for missing soldiers in Dubai. The main character reveals himself with a bang. The game has several endings. Otherwise, it's just a run-and-gun shooter. This would have been the case if beautiful landscapes had not been painted to complement it all. For me, in terms of scenarios in shooters, the game is comparable to Black Ops 1.

This game simply amazes with its plot and its presentation. There is multiplayer here, it is also quite good, but if there had been popularity and fashion, it would still be alive.

But here's the sadness, despite:

• the quality of the graphics (and in those years it was just up to par, and even now it’s not bad);

• an excellent and exciting plot (here you really sit down and go through mission after mission until you realize that half a day has already passed);

• cool gameplay (especially cool with sand, not to mention tactics and team);

For some reason the game turned out to be a financial failure. Take into account the same as for Prototype 2.

I finished it a long time ago when it first came out, but then I used the pirated version. But recently, I accidentally came across it and decided to … Read full

a game with a really powerful plot and normal physics for shooting, while you play the game you have the feeling that everything is going wrong and everything will fall into place, but when you finish the game you will be simply shocked, well, it’s better to find out for yourself, the game is excellent, I advise you to play it

At first I didn’t want to buy this game, but thanks to positive reviews and a discount on Steam, I decided to buy it. The impression of the game is ambiguous. First, the good stuff. Firstly, I liked the plot, which shows how a person changes during war. I also liked the scenery of Dubai. There are cool features, such as finishing off the enemy (thanks to which ammunition is replenished in the years), shooting from behind cover, the ability to fire from a turret while crouched, there are several types of grenades, the ability to order partners, several endings and, although visual, there is a choice for player.

Now about the bad. Shooting in this game is something special - on high difficulties you can shoot an enemy in the head, and only his HAT will fall (!!!), or he will fall to the floor… Read full

An excellent 3rd person shooter. The exciting plot of the missions is quite long, before passing you should stock up on time) I recommend passing!

A typical joker, in the spirit of Call of Duty, with small elements of tactics, but with an awesome plot.

It’s true, I’ve played through a huge number of games, but it’s rare that the plot really touches your soul, and this game is one of those.

She does not talk about brave war heroes, but, on the contrary, about “heroes” whom no one called, and from whom there is many times more evil than good.

This shows the real essence of war, and not this colorful heroism and pathetic self-sacrifice, as in Battlefield or CoD.

Although the gameplay is no different from the two titles listed above, the plot is... There should be more games like this with an anti-war agenda.

I still remember how I saw the trailer for this game on the Country of Games disc. And then the trailer didn’t impress me in any way because it resembled a typical copy of CoD only from the third person, well, there was still a lot of sand (I don’t sand, as they say), so the game naturally passed me by at release.

And this turned out to be a mistake, because under the guise of a shooter about brave American soldiers bringing democracy, the developers from Yager hid a diamond that, through a frightening story, tells one simple truth that is not so often touched upon in video games - war is hell.

Yes, the diamond is not the best shooting mechanic, which is simply not felt, but even this, it seems to me, can be forgiven. For we take control of Martin Walker - a soldier, commander, or rather, a … Read full

This is probably the best game of 2012, but unfortunately it did not succeed in its distribution.

those who are reading this are not very impressionable, and have not played this game - be sure to play it...

Gameplay for me almost always comes first, how tedious it was to play this game in places, the gameplay is monotonous and sometimes its difficulty increases sharply, you need to be careful not to lose half your HP in two seconds. BUT... It's still a damn masterpiece, the plot is what was done in this game at the highest level and emotionally the plot of Spec Ops the line can be compared with games like The last of us or The Walking Dead from Telltale.

Spec ops: The Line is called an anti-war shooter, what does that mean? This game shows how terrible war is. This game really gave me something to think about about its story for almost a week. At some point at the beginning I quit the game, because it was very boring to play until the plot began. If you are a fan of games with fun gameplay, th… Read full

A great game these days!

I met him this year while flipping through green websites, saw this game and watched the trailer purely out of interest.

My emotions were as if I had launched GTA for the first time.

No, seriously, I liked the gameplay, I didn’t read the reviews and downloaded it right away.

When I came in, for some reason I didn’t really like it, as if the game was made cheaply..

Then I realized that it was quite normal, but the continuation was reluctant until chapter 8..

Yes, yes, the same one with that scene , to say that I was shocked is to say nothing

This is exactly what no Call of duty will ever show..

After that, having already completed the game, I realized that this is a real masterpiece..

After 1 playthrough, a week later I went back to playthrough to understand the plot better… Read full
