Stiq Flicks: Spec Ops The Line and Apocalypse Now
Much like a fine wine and some sort of stinky cheese, Stiq Flicks takes a look at a recent video game release and pairs it with a film.
Spec Ops: The Line is one of those rare video games where the story often outshines the gameplay. Even though you might have tired of pumping bullets into sand-covered foes, it’s the story in Spec Ops that will undoubtedly push many players forward.
With a story inspired by Joseph Conrad’s novella Heart of Darkness, our film pairing recommendation for the game is obvious: Francis Ford Coppola’s iconic Apocalypse Now – a film that has also heavily influenced the Yager-developed video game.
