What is Killing is harmless : a critical reading of Spec Ops: The Line about?

One of the most critically discussed games of 2012, 2K and Yagers Spec The Line turns a reflexive lens back onto the genre of the military shooters to ask some hard just what is going on in these games? What does it say about us if we enjoy playing such games? Is virtual violence really harmless? Killing is Harmless isnt an attempt to answer these questions so much as an exploration of just how the game is able to ask them in the first place. It follows the lead character, Walker, in his steps across Dubai to discover just how The Line is able to make so many players interrogate their own complicity in virtual acts of violence.
