“At first, Spec Ops: The Line could easily be mistaken for any modern military shooter from this past generation. The game begins with Delta Force – a three man squad comprised of the protagonist Captain Walker, Lieutenant Lugo, and Staff Seargeant Adams – investigating the aftermath of a series of dust storms that have hit Dubai, and the fates of the military battalion sent to evacuate the refugees. And for a couple of hours, this is mostly forgotten, as the player moves from combat sequence to combat sequence, settling into the groove that other military shooters have well since trodden.” (Spec Ops: The Line, Xbox 360)
