XBOX Spec Ops: The Line Premium Edition (Includes FUBAR Pack)

I ordered this game from GameShark and it was a much lower price than a lot of the scalpers original prices were($150). I paid just $70 for this game and its cosmetic dlc which did not work no matter how many times I put in it. It’s not that much of a problem because the game and game case are in amazing condition and I and very happy for what I got! Plays great on series X with backwards compatibility.

This Game had a very great story line the campaign was fun I just wanted to buy this as soon as possible I thought it was awesome it had lots of great missions it's something I enjoy playing it was a great game and storyline the multiplayer gameplay was nice as well feels different compared to call of duty multiplayer

Spec Ops The Line is truly underrated. This is a solid 3rd person shooter. With a solid command system, and reliable squad to cover your back even on the hard difficulties. Nolan North did yet again, another tremendous job voice acting throughout a mind blowing story arc. Pick this up if you have not already.

Fantastic game!! Take the third person shooter genre to a whole different level and place it's never been before. This game make the call of duty series look like something for an atari or sega genesis

Gears of War for adults. Same basic functions as Gears but way better looking, no cookie cutter redundancies, and no alien bug nonsense.

The US 33rd Infantry Battalion, led by Colonel John Konrad arrives in Dubai to assist in the evacuation effort before giant sand storms can bury the city whole. In defiance of orders from his superiors to leave the city, Konrad and the 33rd remain behind to lead a caravan of refugees out of Dubai. The evacuation is a failure. In the storm’s aftermath, Dubai is declared a no-man's-land and the 33rd are branded as traitors for disobeying orders.In Spec Ops: The Line, you assume the role of Captain Walker, who is sent into Dubai on a reconnaissance mission six months after the devastating sand storms. Your mission is simple: confirm the status of Konrad and any survivors, then radio for extraction. However, shortly after arriving you discover the dead American soldiers and decide to expand your mission’s parameters, pushing further into the ruined city on a search for survivors and answers as to what happened after Konrad’s failed evacuation attempt.What begins as a simple recon mission quickly devolves into a complex struggle between the insurgents, CIA operatives, the US 33rd and a group of desperate civilians caught in-between.Gameplay-wise, Spec Ops plays like your standard third-person cover based shooter. There are some nice environmental effects that you can use to your advantage such as shooting out windows and barriers releasing mountains (dunes, probably should be dunes) of sand upon unsuspecting enemies, but aside from destroying sand castles, there isn’t much to differentiate Spec Ops from Gears or other third-person shooters, at least from a gameplay perspective. Spec Ops adherence to the standard shooter troupes is not a negative, but part of an orchestrated opinion piece on the genre as whole. Specifically, the game’s narrative and the way it is presented to the player is what make Spec Ops worth your time and money.I played the game on normal difficulty which I felt presented a sufficient challenge. It allowed me to experience the story at a comfortable pace without turning the enemy encounters into cake walks. While I could often rely on turtling behind a wall to slowly pick off enemies, I did experience some AI flanking maneuvers and the enemy was not shy about using grenades to push me out of cover.I don’t play many shooters and had I gone into the game without knowing some of the narrative beforehand, I may not have played the game at all. While playing the game with some of the secrets revealed took away some of the emotional impact, I’m still glad I got to experience it for myself. To avoid potentially spoiling the ending for others I will forgo a more in-depth analysis on what Spec Ops has to say about the shooter genre and killing in video games in general. All I will say is that the game makes great use of subtle auditory and visual cues to engage the player and when you look back at the game’s conclusion you may be surprised about how you interpreted these cues, or if you even noticed them at all.Spec Ops has a message to get across and even though the game may at times appear heavy handed in the delivery of its message, I think its chief objective is not to force one particular viewpoint on you at the expense of any other valid interpretations but instead to open up a dialogue about the subject matter and make the player, and hopefully the gaming industry as a whole, think more about the choices we make in games. And in that respect, I think the game succeeds.

How do I put this... Spec ops is just.... Disturbing. I say this having played many survival horrer and narrative driven games. Never have I seen a game screw with your perceptions and twist a story around you quite like the line.The story in a nutshell is that you are john walker. A delta force commando that has been sent on a rescue mission to a disaster stricken Dubai to find that the very people you have been sent to rescue want to kill you. The game is unbeliveably dark. It's haunting to the point that you may have trouble enjoying shooter games for a while. I can't really say anything without giving away massive spoilers, but let's just say you might want to keep an eye on walker.The characters are convincing, very convincing from walker's bouts with insanity, to the radioman constantly keeping tabs on you, the things that happen over the course of the game will probably really mess up your perceptions.Graphics are solid. Especially for a 2012 game. Character models look great and I only noticed a few technical hiccups throughout.Voice acting is also great with Nolan north (of uncharted fame) as Martin walker.Mechanics are basic third person cover based shooter rules. I enjoyed them, but, I get the feeling they were made to sort of trope the genera.As far as age appropriation, no one under 16! Trust me guys. There is some messed up crap in this game and it is not meant for children's eyes.All in all, the line is possibly the most externally powerful game I've ever played. It really makes you question your moral fiber to the point of creepiness. And just a helpful hint, you probobly won't want to play another shooter for a while after you finish the line. That is, if you finish it.

This game is amazing but at the end i found myself being sad and angry. But the only one to be angry at is yourself, and the choices you make. This game will stay with me forever and it will stay in the front of your mind for days
