Spec Ops: The Line Demo Impressions

Spec Ops: The Line is a third person action game from independent German studio Yager Developers and publisher 2K Games.  In the demo, released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox360, you play as Captain Martin Walker, voiced by Nolan North (Is there any game he isn’t involved with?). He along with his two teammates, Adams and Lugo, must find U.S. Army Colonel John Konrad. Konrad, along with his group the 33rd, volunteered to lead survivors from the post-catastrophe destroyed city of Dubai. Soon contact with Konrad and his men is lost, and the U.S. Army sends you and your squad to find them. But not all is as it seems. You soon find that the 33rd have in fact gone rogue and are in a sort of civil war with the refugees left in Dubai. To make matters even worse, the refugees are being led by an American CIA agent. And both sides want you dead.

The co-creator of popular shows Home Movies and Metalocalypse, and fictional band Dethklok, has released his first solo album and has put together what is probably his best work so far.
