I finished Spec Ops: The Line a few hours ago and the game blew my mind. The story of the game was such a surprise and was extremely well written. The campaign was really short and only clocked in around 6 hours, but it was great. If you've read the book Heart of Darkness or watched the film Apocalypse Now (which you should) you may find this game very familiar with its plot, but has its own spin and obviously just take inspiration. I really don't want to spoil anything, but don't pass this off as a generic modern military shooter. It's more than that. The gameplay is honestly pretty mediocre and average. It's probably the weakest part of the game, but that doesn't mean it can't be fun sometimes. I'd highly recommend this game, but only get it when it's one sale. It's a short campaign with an amazing story. Also, stay FAR away from the multiplayer. 8/10.
