I have a core memory of my dad letting me skip kindergarten (!) to play this. Spec Ops: Ranger Elite is in fact part of the same series as Spec Ops: The Line, but it portrays the brutality of war in a slightly different way. By that, I mean this is a clunky, low budget third person shooter. The soundtrack sticks out prominently in my mind because it's largely one song - this unnerving, droning ambient music that plays in every stage. I'll always cherish this game, but I feel like even when I was a walking fetus I could tell it was mediocre.
