Quantcast



Spike released a new teaser today for some mysterious game by 2K. No details were released but we were promised the full reveal during the VGAs on December 12.

Unfortunately for Spike, it looks like this trailer was already released. Four months ago in fact. 1Up caught  the original video which reveals this new game to be Spec Ops. For those of you that don't remember, Specs Ops was a war game for the original PlayStation, PC and Dreamcast. It was also complete crap.

The trailer does look interesting, but the name Spec Ops just brings up bad memories. How about you? Does this look good to any of you?

Spec Ops sucked.

The MW2 mode of the same name does not.

On a side note, an open-world game set in Dubai would be pure win.

If this is indeed a sequel/reboot based on the canceled PS2 version of the game, then it would be so spiffy if Josh Homme still has his name attached to the musical score.

Wow that's some hot late 90's looking CG.

I guess they've never announced what 2K Boston is working on now, and they made SWAT 4, so it could be related to them? Or something?

I thought about the same thing myself, that it might be connected to Ken Levine. But this looks generic as hell, but I suppose Spike VGA would be the most appropriate time to reveal something like this.

I am so confused. So this might be an open world game set in Dubai, a remake of a failed Dreamcast game no one (or maybe just me) has ever heard of, a reboot of a PS2 game with a soundtrack by Josh (fucking) Homme, or a new Ken Levine game?

...what the fuck.

I think my flash player is broken. The video didn't play, it was just stuck on a brown screen. :(

Rainbow Six-like Third-Person-Shooter in Dubai with fully destructible environment?

I am from the United Arab Emirates, and i would be very VERY surprised if they let that game be sold in the UAE. i mean there is a lot of censorship there (sorta) but a game that defaces the city will not make it. Otherwise if it was a post apocalyptic style game, im curious, but otherwise a MEH.

I really will not be watching the VGAs and I would encourage all of you to do the same.

Holy SHIT people! I don't care if the old Spec Ops games sucked.

This is made by the same devs who made SWAT 4.

If this game is anything like SWAT 4, then I WANT IT NOW.
