Brute Force Impressions!!

[Nivek]

Re: First Brute Force Review...I think.

I've only played a few minutes and all I can say is !

This game reeks of Halo, from the interface to the way the story is set up. Graphics are stunning, and their isn't a touch of slowdown that I can notice. To shoot you use the Right trigger while you throw gernades with the L trigger. For all you southpaws, you can adjust this and many other settings for your liking. Also, you might wanna check out the demo's, they have the new Fable trailor.

As of right now:

Pro's:
- AMAZING A.I. (better then Halo)
- Great interface
- Amazing Graphics
- Huge Levels
- Cool weapons/special moves (Tex's Berzerk mode is pretty tight)

Cons:
- Story is kinda lame (up to this point, don't really know where the story is heading)
- They're aren't many special manovers other the strafing.
- I find the controls a little sluggish (I'm using the legacy settings)

Fossen, what time are you going to pick it up?

Soon ... as soon as the kids are bathed and in bed, and all the "Dad" stuff is done.

But now Nivek has come through.

Is it 3rd person only? What's that like?

I'll be picking it up soon too, can't wait. I've been looking forward to this one since I first saw it a couple years ago.

But Splinter Cell was slow and didn't involve a lot of shooting.

Re: First Brute Force Review...I think.

Sorry guys had some things to do and wasn't able to post impressions. Pretty much what Nivek said. Love the controls in this game. The digital pad is used to select your character. You can have up to as many as 4 controlled characters. The AI in this game is insane!! Enemies hide and duck to avoid getting shot at. So far I played through the first objective and I'm liking it. The graphics are great. (One of the best looking Xbox games to date.) The sound is great as well. Love the presentation. From the opening movie to the beginning of the game. It feels like HALO.

Btw, controls feel and play like HALO, ability to drop and pick a variety of weapons, grenades, health packs etc..

I recommend you guys pick up this game. You won't be dissapointed. I'll see if I can grab some pics of the game in action.

Btw, you also get a HALO companion dvd set. Look at my screenshot from my last reply to see the cover.
