Review

Already there are how many game shooter that is circulating in the market? Too much. Now growing again a third-person shooter into a number of game shooter, outstanding game titled Spec Ops: The Line. Does that makes this game different from other shooter games? Six months ago, vanished from the map because of the Dubai hit by storms of sand is great. Many lives were lost, including American troops sent to evacuate the city. Now, the city of Dubai has been destroyed, and we as leader the Delta Recon Team named Martin Walker (voiced by Nolan North), should go into town and look for people who still survived.

Outline, Spec Ops: The Line is a third-person shooter video game which is pretty standard. We can carry two weapons that could fit snugly with the way picking up from the battlefield, three types of grenades, and accompanied by two teams. We can also hide in cover, blind shooting, ordered the two children we are fruit, Lugo (sniper) and Adams (heavy) as well as doing melee. But even though this game is totally standard as a third-person shooter, Spec Ops: setting The Line, namely the city of Dubai, which has already destroyed by sand storms bring different characteristics. In some parts of the game, we're going to sand, buffeted by storms and therefore we can also destroy the environment such as sand or glass window guards to kill the enemy.

AI is actually quite clever friend second, they could slaughter the enemy and help us, although sometimes they like to stand in front of without cover though bullets fly everywhere. To be sure, we could ask you please to them to kill enemies is difficult we shoot, and usually they are able to do so. Spec Ops: The Line has a dark story. Throughout the game, we'll see how mengerikannya war, what choices are to be made on the battlefield, and how the consequences on our hearts. Are we going to put an end to his life that is dying, or let the tormented life?

No wonder if the story is very deep, because the story Spec Ops: The Line is an adaptation of Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad as well as adaptation of the film Apocalypse Now, but his settings created in the modern city of Dubai. Graphically, Spec Ops: The Line made is pretty cool, we can see how the city of Dubai after buildings collapsed, skyscrapers have been ravaged, and character interaction to the environment is pretty good, e.g. hanging on zipline and so on. We will also be buffeted by sand storms that will be by blocking the view.

As the war film, character voice acting is very good. There are even some dialogue that sometimes makes us laugh, between fourth wall breaking by Walker or radio broadcast in Dubai that is similar to the sound in Portal 2 crank Weasley. Behind the story that was satisfactory, Spec Ops: The Line also features multiplayer which is pretty standard, of course with special effects of sand storm in Dubai. In multiplayer, as ever we can to unlock various new weapons, perk 's, new gear and so on. We could do a deathmatch 8 players in a map. Oh, very fun.
