Spec Ops: The Line

In a weird way, verging on being a generic military shooter benefits Spec Ops. Because you think you know where it's going, it's all the more startling when it goes off the map.

The gameplay, graphics and to a lesser degree, the ending are serviceable but the things it does brilliantly are things that aren't done often in games- great story and treating the audience with genuine maturity.

This is a game that a score won't reflect how good it is; there's games that are technically better that you'll forget about. But you'll still be talking about this.
