Microsoft Brute Force

I recently rebought this game since I lost it a long time ago. I got it very cheap and the game got here in fantastic condition!The game itself is definitely a product of its time, but a very good product to say the least. It’s a very well down squad game that lets you decide how you play your game. You can rush the enemy, use some strategic tactics, or stealth in some cases. I feel the game leaves it a bit too open to the player to decide how to go about the game. However, if you increase the difficulty it forces you much more often to be more strategic and smart with how you approach a given area.The story isn’t important in this game at all. It’s basically just said a few times to set the stage for the player to go around killing things. Or to use brute force.All in all, a very great game that is so much fun for me to play. It’s cool honestly that they leave a lot up to the player. It could perhaps be too open, but I think it still is awesome. The characters are also very likable. Particularly Brutus who is an awesome ally to have by your side! It’s a great game that ends right where it needs to and gives enough missions to fulfill some random shooting or strategic fun!

Shockingly after years of getting scratched, awful discs I was fortunate enough to recieve a piece of my childhood without any headaches. The case was in very good condition with THE MANUAL! Disc looked refinished (Thank you) and booted up with no issues. Lovely edition to my collection.As for the game, Its a squad based sci-fi 3rd person shooter. 4 characters with unique abilities. Its from 2003, plays like a game from 03', handles like a game from 03'. Some missions are suprisingly hard even on the easiest difficultly and require you to utilize ever advantage you might have. The story might as well not exist, but there are some funny lines and interactions between the squad. Beyond that theres a multiplayer that lets you pick just about all of the characters in the game with unique abilities themselves.It was a dollar 75, for a game that somehow looks like the weapons were carved from potatos in Lucas Films' basement and the maps are just shooting gallerys it plays like AAA game from the time. There were better games, but none of them let me dual weild miniguns, have an aimbot, or let me summon whatever the "Spirit of Vengar" is and bum rush a dude to death. 10/10 might aswell sir, we're here.

I've already played this game through once on easy mode, and it was okay. Basically, I didn't really use all the manuevers at my command. I all did with it was run and shoot. Now, I'm playing through Brutal Mode, and trying to use complete stategy while playing. Hawks invisibility helps locate where the enemy's are giving early intel. Brutus allows for seeing further in the darkness or mist, allowing Flint to stand next to him and shoot what he sees. Tex is more of a fall back character for me though, he's tough, but in Brutal mode, he's sorta the last resort guy. The ability to place your squad where you want them can become really advantageous. Flint snipes from a high position, while Brutus and Tex surround the opening, and then Hawk lures the enemies into the open. It has really cool graphics, and if played strategically, it can be quite a challenge.Some things are hard to find though, but once all the enemy have been destroyed, you can generally go back and look for whatever to achieve your secondary objectives.It can be played as either a shooter game, or a strategy game. Your choice. I love it. Brutal Mode is hard though.

So the graphics aren't perfect...So the gameplay is a little wonky...So the game is wicked old...So What?!This is classic XBOX! This is a fun game before there were a lot of games like this. Package was in great condition and so the game. Well worth it.
