Brute Force - Xbox

A perfect example of a truly overhyped game

You know the game is terrible when two DIFFERENT bosses are only separated by their "color"(one is red, other is blue). But what a waste as this game had so much potential. It's not even a typical shooter, it's boring at best. Go from point A, to point B, and your done. The game was referred to as the next Halo or better, good thing not TOO many people listened to that. The multiplayer also had potential. But it all falls through with so many holes to fill in, skip this game even with it's 5 dollar price tag.

Repetitious, but you won't notice.

Looks: Pretty well done. When I first fired this game up, I was impressed, even though it first played it this year, 2005. Character models move around pretty well, with realistic enough animations to keep you interested through the game. Their models are also well done. Environments look great, with some really nice touches, like great water effects, and that glowing, whatever it was stuff (what was that toxic substance called again?) on far away planets. Overall, a well done package, graphically. Sounds: Sigh, I want to say the sounds completely go along with the graphics. OK, the lines in the script are a little cheesey, but entertaining. Weapon sounds are pretty cool, with variety enough to let you know exactly what everyone's shooting with. Audio cues from your team members are especially helpful, as they do communicate with you when needed. Controls: They get the job done, plain and simple. Point, shoot, control your team mates/change between them, you're done. Gameplay: It's repetitious. Every mission is pretty much the same thing when it all boils down. BUT... It's kept fun through lots of action, due to the clever positioning of the enemies. Fun: If you're picky about havin billions of different things to do in a game, steer clear, or rent. If you're ready for some all out shooting fun, go for it. Overall, though, don't expect anything monumental.

This game rocks out loud

This game is second best than Halo2.Because the abilty to control a squad sounds really cool.Even when you die,you to the next player.This game should be third place with Halo and Halo2.

great multi player 4 player co-op online fun game you play as an elite squad of 4 brutus the lizard with the power to rampage and haveheartbeat sensor type thing. Hawk a elite stealth unit who would kick sam fisher's ass. with her cloak power and her energy blade. Tex a triger happy machine gunner with power to hold 2 guns berserker. Splint a sneaky sniper with a auto aim heat seeking bullets, with the skill to snipe out a navy seal. together they own there foe's. fun game with squad tactcs but it lacks somthingit lacks the FPS its 3rd its hard to say what it lacks

Average game. But worth it

This game is alot of fun. For the 1st 30 minites. Its very repetitive. Alot of the times, you feel like your playing the same level, over and over again. Aside from that. The game is allright. An ok storyline. Better than average graphics. And excelant control. Gameplay- 7/10- The gameplay in this game is fun at times. But like i said, its very repetitive. But if you get over that, you can have a good time. There are alot of cool weapons. Cool character specials. And fun multiplayer. The story can be cool at some points. There are many characters to unlock. But to repetitive to keep trying for them. The story is great at some times. But at other times, its not so great. The story only gives you a breifing on what your doing there. Thats all, Play from that. Graphics-- 7/10- The graphics are nice a clean. And the characters modguals are real nice. But it could get better. The characters seem real plain. Could use some detail. And so could the guns. From a couple feet away. The guns look like blurs. Until you get real close to pick them up. Sound- 6/10- The guns sound real nice. Thats the only plus about the sound. The voice acting is real lame. Not much acting involved. At some points in cut scenes. Youll need to turn your tv up to hear them. And at other ponts theyll talk real loud youll have to turn it back down. But thats the bad thing, there just talking in their regular, calm voice. The creaturs sound pretty cool. But sometimes their voice sound distant, but could be right beside you. Or sound close. but be far away Control- 10/10- Hey, its basically halo's controls. What else is there more to say. All in all, Brute force is an ok game. Could be a little better. But hopefully thats what sequals are for. As for it being a 3rd person version of halo. I think thats about right. But just a little more lame. I dont think this game was worth its start out price of $50.00. But luckily they lowered it. Its worth $20. You should go out and get it.
