Very nice shooting, but too many bots. The developers constantly force you to test new weapons, so that you do not go through the whole game without trying out all the content.

The plot is average.Unnecessary / weak history variability.

Good music and sound.

Interaction with the team is poorly implemented.Its management is terribly inconvenient.

7/10
I really enjoyed this game. Often times I step away from big franchises that I'm working my way through to play a standalone game for a breath of fresh air. This remains one of the most remarkable standalone games I've ever played. Although some of the messages may be delivered less gracefully than others of its ilk. It uses the medium of videogames and your preconceived notions of the genre to take you further and further down a loop of logic and reasoning that unwinds as the story does. It will change how you see Modern Warfare forever. And when it does do setpieces, It does them really well. But the ending. Damn that's some good shit.

Absolute storytelling masterpiece showing the true brutality of war and it's psychological consequences deep, complex three-dimensional storytelling with mature themes and great voice acting, graphics are really good for its time, gameplay while not exceptional is more than serviceable and above average, but this is game you should really play to experience the storytelling experience. Probably the best anti-war message I have ever sen.
Super freaking good game.

Unique as hell. A critique on the shooter genre set in post-apocalyptic Dubai. Heart of Darkness themes, Nolan North doing some amazing voice acting. When it came out it was hella controversial with the white phosphorus scene n all that, most talked about game EVER. Hella recommend. 

Also am a fan of the gameplay here as far as shooters/3PS go. Not bullet-spongey like Gears for example. Combat is pretty snappy and doesn’t drag
One of the most under-rated games. The gameplay and the storyline is quite good and interesting. The most important thing this game offered, is the ability to decide what to do at some point; that can literally make you the villain for bad decisions.

Overall, the game is very short but interesting to follow the story events from start to end.
Surprise game of the last years.
Never imagined it would be such a mental experience.

Underrated gem.
Surprisingly good game

Spec Ops the line is a Contemporary Shooter developed by Yager. Graphically, the Game is good, but not particularly standout compared to other comparable shooters like MoH, BF3. However, the Environment is very harmonious and the Levels are designed with great Attention to Detail. However, the Atmosphere in the Singles player is at a very high Level compared to the Competition and manages to captivate and touch the Player. (Whoever played through it is still guaranteed to have their Mind in some Places) Playfully, Specops offers more Subpar fare in Multiplayer and Co-op mode, you realize that these two were only added after The Game was developed. So You shouldn't buy SpecOps if you want fun Co-op Action ala Dead Island or want to let off steam in Multiplayer. However, If you look at the Single Player Mode, you will quickly find that you have a Jewel in your Hands here as far as the Story and the Game Atmosphere are concerned. You can see that there was a Studio from Germany at work here, you didn't give a Hollywood story, but a very dense, very stirring story in which nothing is as it seems and you would have preferred to do everything differently in the End. Once you've played Through SpecOps, you're just going to yawn over other Single-player campaigns. Personal Pro's:-good Level Design-Incredibly gripping Storytelling-class atmosphere cover system-bug-free personal Contra's:-boring, applied Multiplayer Co-mode offers few Cards and hardly any Variety Who Single Player campaigns in the Shooter genre with Backstory Likes, for which there is no way around this Game.
