Hendrix's version of the national anthem plays over the main menu with an upside down American flag (as a sign of distress, not disrespect). All used effectively within the story as they would be in a movie. It has an excellent soundtrack featuring such acts as Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix and Martha & the Vandellas. The only choices that do matter are towards the end of the game. Much of the game is, particularly war games and having generic (but solid) shooting mechcanics. Perhaps it's a bigger commentary on video games in general. You can shoot a man that stole food for his family or you can shoot a man that killed to protect his family or you can try to shoot both of the ropes they're hanging from in an attempt to spare both. You can fire in the air to scare civilians off or you can shoot them.
There are plenty of choices throughout the game. To some extent just how mad Walker goes is up to you. This makes it a visually impressive game even if it's not technically impressive.
There's beautiful sunsets, 5 star hotels with vibrant colors, gorgeous views, rooftop swimming pools and of course the signature tall buildings in Dubai. One of the more brilliant things about the game is that juxtaposition with the horros of war and beauty of Dubai. Soliders are hung from streetlamps, burned bodies litter the streets, candles lit underground for those that hid from the storms. As you go deeper into Dubai, Walker goes deeper into his decent of madness. This isn't some simpleton Call of Duty style game. It doesn't take long for things to go south and suddenly there's shootouts all over lovely Dubai. The game is based on the classic novel Heart of Darkness and its film adaptation Apocalypse Now. Formerly serving under Konrad's command he's sent in with his team of Lieutenant Adams & Staff Sergeant Lugo to find Konrad and his 33rd and bring them to safety.

I aim to make connections with faith, the bible and the experience of these video games. These are two publications for Christian audiences, that have invited me to shed light on what a range of video games might mean for those communities. Firstly, from 2013-2015 for ThirdWay magazine, and more recently for Youth and Children's Work (YCW) magazine.
SPEC OPS THE LINE NO SOUND SERIES
The games in this list have been the subject of a series of articles I have written about video games and faith. They offer a chance for response and emotion to grow. They invite us to reconsider how we see the outsider and the marginalised. They include themes of hope, loss and love. Games offer a unique way to encounter what is beyond us: other people, the world and possibly even the divine.
SPEC OPS THE LINE NO SOUND FULL
However, many games offer experiences that invite you to explore buildings, worlds, cities and the countryside full of potential for spiritual reflection. Video games aren't high on the list of most people's spiritual spaces.
