It's OK. It's nothing to write home about, I just got through with Max Payne, which was incredible, but Spec Ops is just kind of bland. Apparently it's hell of ugly on consoles though, so it is a step up from that.

Too bad that only applies to amazon.com (US). I would definitely buy it at that price.

Are you sure about Spec Ops? It only came out this week right? Why would they have a half off sale already? Unless they knew the reviews before hand but still, seems like a steep cut..

Well fuck. =\ That sucks I could have saved $30.

Game was in development hell for a while, probably trying to recoup money.

It has been a trend a lot recently for games like these. If a game doesn't do that great you can expect to see a PC version, specifically a digital version, go on sale on deep discount.

Makes you almost think that games shouldn't be $60 at launch unless they're triple A.

Oh well, I'm no economist

Just picked it up.. I'd been interested in the game but couldn't justify 50 bucks... 25 on the other hand.... much better!
