kill.switch - Spec Ops: The Line, but 9 Years Early

Before Spec Ops: The Line rocked audiences, kill.switch laid the groundwork for countless cover shooters to come. It's a subversive third-person shooter that pulls no punches with its difficulty or its complicated morality. It's something of an underrated classic these days, and I wanted to shine a light on this clever gem that inspired games like Uncharted and Gears of War!
