Intense fire fights in a sand-swamped Dubai
Grisly hostage executions set a somber tone
The morality of war is brought into focus
Your friends aren't always who you think they are
Grisly at times too
You may well question your actions
Stunning arid landscapes
Dust provides an interesting obstacle to long range sniping
Cover is critical
It was stunning before the sand destroyed it all
Eerie moments abound
The apocalypse never looked so good
Article Summary
If you were to listen to the critics of modern action shooters one of the most regular, and valid, criticisms of the genre is that these games have no moral compass. When you think of how some games become little more than glorified shooting galleries you might be inclined to agree. For example check our review of Max Payne 3 last month and you’ll see where we are coming from. Spec Ops: The Line takes this criticism to heart and makes sure you account for the impact you are having on those around you.
