Brief synopsis of The Outfit

The Outfit is an explosive third-person WWII title combining intense squad-based combat with the the freedom of total destruction to capture the intensity of war. It's also a significant technical development on previous action/shooter games with a number of new, never-before-seen features sure to whet the appetite of any war-gaming aficionado. As you progress through the game and complete mission objectives, you earn field units (FUs) that can be used on the fly to call-in 'Destruction on Demand' ? this is heavy weaponry air-dropped into the action at any time, including tanks, jeeps, half-tracks and other combat vehicles through to machine gun nests, anti-tank emplacements, squad reinforcements, air strikes and artillery strikes on enemy targets. The Outfit features fully interactive and fully destructible environments, which gives you the freedom to shoot, blow up or demolish anything in the game. This baby lets you vent some serious pent-up anger! You can destroy buildings, bridges, walls and fences - everything can be levelled in your battle against the Nazi forces. The three fully playable squad leaders you can choose between each possess specific skills and abilities (i.e. close-combat specialist, heavy-arms specialist or anti-tank specialist.) Playing as one of these, you will lead a squad of battle-forged soldiers on a variety of combat missions - ranging from reconnaissance and rescue to search and destroy. With automated squad AI, your squad will act like a highly trained infantry unit that responds to actions as well as dynamic battlefield situations - laying down suppressing or covering fire, taking cover or rushing enemy positions. You can experience the 'cinematic intensity' of WWII combat through 12 epic single-player missions or online with Xbox Live for a variety of multiplayer modes, including co-op.

AWFUL GAME

Nutta from UK , 04/06/2007

STORY: They story takes place in the middle of WWII, with Hitler's army rolling through France. There are two factions of the Nazi War Machine trying to make the push across the country. One front is led by the maniacal but cunning SS General Viktor Morder. The other is led by General Hans Von Beck, who isn't really in lockstep with the SS, but his love for Germany and his sense of duty tempers his cynicism. The Outfit is charged with finding and taking out Von Beck and Morder and helping get France away from Hitler's grasp.

Nice story but many aspects are fictionalized so may not appeal to WWII fans 2/10

GAMEPLAY: The game is pretty poor, its another WWII shooter and not exactly a great one, This is a 3rd person shooter in opposed to the normal 1st person shooters like Call of duty and medal of honor, what also seems cool at the start is it has rts elements of being able to call in tanks and gun emplacements and even air strikes and as this does sound cool it rarely is. Doing these things is hardly exciting and as a whole the game just rolls along and never shocks throughout.

Just the same old 3rd person shooter nothing new to see and it doesn't even do the old things very good. 1/10

GRAPHICS: This is supposed to be a XBOX 360, but looks more like it is from the xbox, i know it is an early game in the 360's life but many others games that came out at the same time look alot prettier.

Not great, not even good. 1/10

This game is very disappointing not as much fun as i though 1/10
