Seriously, get the Desert to Sea Bundle. Spec Ops: The Line is probably the best single-player shooter I've played this year. The story is nearly Bioshock worthy, with a Dead Space style twist to it. I finally finished it tonight. I promise you a wonderful experience. It's not just a shooter.
Edit: Just looked up Spec Ops The Line score on gamespot. 6.5/10?! Not that I truly care for critic scores, I care more about user reviews and my own experience with a game.. but what the hell? Spec Ops The Line is f'kn fantastic. It's better than Uncharted 3 and all those other third-person shooters that came out in recent years. Oh well.. I guess. :/
Also, I highly recommend playing it on "Suicide Mission" difficulty, which is the hardest diff. Provides a good challenge but it isn't overly difficult to the point where you might smash your keyboard. I died quite a bit, but that's because I didn't flank properly, or use the appropriate weapon for a certain encounter. Normally, in a game like Uncharted or Gears of War series video game, I didn't really care which weapon I used as long as the enemy dropped dead.
On Suicide Mission mode, ammo is more scarce, and sometimes I found myself running through the crossfire to pick up a gun off an enemy dead soldier to replenish ammo or grab a new gun entirely. I normally do not do that in any shooters because they're so mindless, sorta speak.
