G4MERS: "Spec Ops: The Line, the game I'm waiting, for the salvation of the demo and get it pretty soon, because I shop when you update the PlayStation Store. And what do we find in the next USPSS update?"
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.
Good to hear.
Very cool.
I'm hoping for a surge in third party shooters.
Starhawk is a bit different and SOCOM has fallen off for the most part, I still play confrontation and plan to play more socom 4 but its not the socom of old really.
All other TPS games kind of suck or are kind of generic.
I'm hoping for a good tactical TPS game soon.
@Red2tango
LOL I knew a some Socom fanboy would cry like I insulted his whole family (Worst fanboys ever)
I never said Socom 4 was good anyway all I know is that you Socom fanboys like playing crap ass games so you can act like your in a real war. Ive played with you guys online your a joke with your "go to delta and charlie crap" or "Red to tango" LoL sad. Your probably one of those guys who goes apeshit on your mic when a team mate does something wrong.
LOL Im a retard because I think a game is terrible. Typical insecure Socom fanboy logic. What shoes how ignorant and stupid you are you is you assumed I was defending Socom 4 when I didnt even mention it in my comment!! You deluded little fanboy you make me laugh...
