"The Outfit" is god-awful!!

[pacmanhat]

Yeah, the Mercenaries comparison is definitely valid. Throw in a little SW:Battlefront as well, set it in WW2, and you've more or less got The Outfit. I still don't see what's not to like about this game, but as I've said before I think it's biggest problem right now is that it isn't Ghost Recon.

When i saw the trailer for this one and compared it to the one of COD 2, I knew that The Outfit was not as good.

But i wasn't expecting anyone to post about it being so bad.

Now, i am not defending it, But is this one as bad as Maximum Chase for the original Xbox?

I guess another problem I had with this game was how linear the single player mode is.

For christs sake, it's like you're being walked through the maps. Multiplayer had a bit more variety, but I still didn't enjoy it.

I'll just stick to Ghost Recon.

It's a lot less linear than you might think...there's a lot of hidden things that can be done for achievements. It's not a massive improvement, but it's better than something totally linear.

Heh, the negativity towards it isn't surprising. It came out just a few months after launch. Of course some of the games will suck. "The Outfit" in particular is just another 2nd rate WWII shooter. And, now that I think about it, The Mercenaries isn't much better.

Although I was pleasantly surprised with G.R.A.W. I've played it at a friend's house, and I was very impressed. If more games like that come out for the 360 and people suddenly start buying HDTVs, then it just might not become a doorstop after all.

More tiresome silliness....

PS2 release list (1-23) (Comparable 360 release)
Gradius III & IV -Call of Duty 2
Summoner -Kameo
Time Splitters -Perfect Dark Zero
Midnight Club - Street Racing -Project Gotham 3
Ridge Racer V -Burnout Revenge
Silent Scope -Tomb Raider
SSX -Tony Hawk
Swing Away Golf -Tiger Woods
Tekken Tag Tournament -Condemned
X Squad -GRAW
Eternal Ring -King Kong
Evergrace -Oblivion
Fantavision -Final Fantasy XI
Street Fighter EX3 -The Outfit
Surfing - H30 -Amped
Unreal Tournament -Quake 4
Armored Core 2 -Chromehounds
ESPN - Winter X Games -NBA 2K6
Dead or Alive 2 - Hardcore -DOA4
Dynasty Warriors 2 -Dynasty Warriors 5
ESPN - International Track & Field -NHL 2K6
Ready 2 Rumble Boxing - Round 2 -Fight Night 3
GunGriffon Blaze -Chromehounds

Come on. This is the greatest system release ever. Didn't even include the Xbox Arcade, or Xbox Live vs. nothing for PS2. Continuing this list or even changing it to the Xbox would make it even more ridiculous.

Quake 4, COD2, GRAW, Kameo, Condemned, Burnout, DOA4, Oblivion, and likely a few of the soon to be released games, are all GREAT games. What are people thinking when they make these sorts of comments?

Not trying to be rude, just making a case.

I have to say I agree with Trebuken on this one.
