The US military dispatches the 33 rd infantry battalion to help those afflicted by this freak catastrophe. The city becomes enveloped in a sea of sand, while its majestic skyline still pierces the heavens. It made me want to cry, similar to when you cut onions.Ī sandstorm absolutely wrecks the desert metropolis that is Dubai. In fact, I felt the premise was kind of lame. Spec Ops: The Line‘s story doesn’t give a great first impression. Each layer can be peeled and, naturally, moves you closer to the center.
I have to say when it comes to the story, Spec Ops: The Line reminds me a lot of an onion. This is why the Lords of Gaming decided to review the 2012’s Spec Ops: The Line and give it the proper attention it deserves. Unfortunately, some of these great games slip through the cracks and did not receive the attention they deserve. They truly stand out from the rest of the pack. Some of these games such as the original Uncharted trilogy, Halo 3, and Super Mario Galaxy went on to define the generation. This game is still great, as dark as it was.The seventh generation of consoles (PS3/Xbox 360/Wii) saw some truly spectacular releases throughout its life cycle. Lots of bloody aftermaths seen on-screen frequently. Tons of blood spills out when you shoot one shot in someone, while shooting the head will end in a bloody explosion with a neck stump with a bone sticking out ever so slightly. The dialog eventually leads to stressful swearing and shouting, leaving a feeling of unease. As you go to save the civilians, you realize that the phosphorus hit the civilians and has burned about 50 innocent people, two people, mother and daughter, holding each other with frozen screams on their faces. One sequence (spoilers) has the choice to take on an army in a huge, frustrating gunfight to get to the civilians, but the other choice is to launch mortars filled with white phosphorus, later having you walk through the wreckage and burning bodies begging for mercy. Some of the cutscenes and disturbing violence will make A Clockwork Orange look tame. Moral choices that always lead to bad endings will leave you hating himself.
This game, while it may be a great, dark story, is incredibly violent and gory. Near constant use of "f#!k" (especially halfway through the story), some uses of "$h!t", "b#!ch", and one use of "p!$$". Smaller details throughout the game can be quite disturbing and haunting, as there is very dark and sometimes realistic imagery behind those details. Near the end of the game, the protagonists face is darkened with dirt, blood, bruises & burns. Characters are beaten to a bloody pulp, a disturbing scene depicts the deaths of MANY civilians (including a shot of a mother holding her daughter after being burnt alive with white phosphorus), some hallucinations depict ghostly figures that burn alive, the protagonist beats a guy's head in with the butt of his gun (with some large blood splatters around the body), and a few people are shot in the head, leaving blood stains. Some melee executions are brutal and leave blood stains. Players can shoot and melee enemies resulting in some blood and mild gore. It asks many "hard to answer" questions and puts players into the shoes of an evil hero. Spec Ops doesn't try to make the gameplay too fun and tells a grim story about conflict and morality within soldiers. Spec Ops: The Line mocks other military shooters that wrongly defy war and conflict as something fun to play through with over-the-top heroic stories.
