i think a book about Spec Ops is a bit much

I dont see the appeal with the Spec Ops story, hes got some strange opinions.
[QUOTE=dude2193;40277169]I dont see the appeal with the Spec Ops story, hes got some strange opinions.[/QUOTE] imo Spec Ops is largely a victim of its own success; its message is one that should be repeated, but could have and has been portrayed far better - and since all Spec Ops really [I]has[/I] is its message there isn't a whole lot left once you get down to it, other than some lovely set-pieces and voice acting and a cool soundtrack.

[QUOTE=gtanoofa;40277443]based on a book with [B]slight changes[/B].[/QUOTE] Hardly, It's based on a novella, Heart of Darkess which is not the same at all. It's a modern adaption as Apocalypse now was a an adaption into the Vietnam War. Heart of Darkness is about African savagery off of the Congo during imperalism in the 19th century

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;40267061]A new book from the amazing writer of: Shoot that guy! You shot him? YOU'RE HORRIBLE.[/QUOTE] That means something when most shooters these days are "Shoot that guy, now that guy! You're awesome! Oh, you shot that civilian? No worries, you're still awesome!"
