Summary
Take control of any one of four highly specialized super-commandos in Brute Force, an action-packed sci-fi, squad-based shooter game. Whether the encounter requires stealth, tactics, sniping, or just brute force, the team is ready and able. The game combines the intensity of a shooter game with the cunning strategies of team-based tactical combat. Play solo through six worlds in the extensive single-player campaign, or play co-operatively with up to three friends via split-screen or System Link. A multitude of competitive death-match modes with up to eight players; and downloadable new content, including campaigns, mission, and maps; keep the game fresh for replayability.

Critic Reviews45
And with their waving grass and bubbling lava, Brute Force's graphics are even richer than its game-play possibilities. Those synthetics keep looking better and better.

But perhaps the over-riding criticism of Brute Force is that it should have been an FPS. It seems like Digital Anvil designed it in the third person for the sake of it, without acknowledging that it completely screws up the opportunity to play it split screen, thanks to inherent third person viewpoint issues.

Though the story is a bit lacking in the plot department and the tactical aspect of the game is almost forced, the game itself is still a finely polished single player experience. The multiplayer aspect of Brute Force is also exceptional for what it is, but the unfortunate Xbox live deficiency truly hurts in the end.
