"Long have we witnessed the spouting of all kinds of hideous and beautiful manifestations of entertainment issuing forth from the maw of the game industry since its advent back in the ages."
Cultured Vultures: In the spirit of preserving some kind of history of this industry, we’ve decided to list some of the best games that you just simply can’t get hold of digitally at the minute.
I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.
Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.
Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.
wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.
Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
Tim and Luis talk what they’ve been watching and playing along with the news from the past week, including all the games from Sony’s “State of Play,” Evil West, Silent Hill: The Short Message, Hideo Kojima weirdness, Spec Ops: The Line delisted and more!
A stellar work of sobering proportions, Spec-Ops: The Line is an outstanding third-person shooter that on first glance conceals its hidden depths.
It's really a shame that the Spec Ops reboot didn't continue into a series. Obviously the story in The Line is over. But each game could have delved into the different psychological effects of war as well as exploring different takes on Heart of Darkness. In a sea of mindless military shooters it was nice to finally play a shooter that actually had something to say.
This game was the last of a dying breed, a signifier of where shooter games (and videogames more broadly) COULD have gone if developers didn't pivot so hard into the online services, micro transaction, season pass, yada yada.
New narrative territory exploring the actual art form of gaming and storytelling within it.
A brilliant depiction into what war can really do to a person and doesn't glorify it in any way.
I heard this game might be getting delisted, which is a travesty, this is one that should be preserved forever
I think the title was unfortunate - it was when Moder Warfare got big so I assumed it was yet another clone. Fortunately, because ps plus I checked out this gem of a game.

Killing your own d..
Far Cry 3 and Spec Ops ones were pretty awesome too
Shadow of the colossus. Made me feel like the bad guy.
Mass Effect series. Some of the choices are heart-wrenching.
I felt like a dick in Spec ops. I knew he was crazy when i had the chance to save2 people who commited crimes and everyone else was like "Dude wtf are you talking about? Lets go?". I wanted a secret good ending but a sad depressing endling has more impact.
The only other game that did that to me was Virtue's last reward. When you're nice you get F'd over and when you're a dick you get left behind lol gotta relive all the paths.
When I got Spec Ops on Plus I thought it would just be another fps to just blindly play through, but it surprised me. It made me think a lot and I really enjoyed the game. One thing besides the story that stood out is how choices were presented. When you had to kill people you werent just given a list of options, you had to actually aim the gun at someone and pull the trigger. And there were always hidden options like just walking away, or trying to save them.
