I've always wanted to casually strole up to nazis and punch them in the face ..especially while bullet proof


the game is called The Outfit for xbox360 ..apparently you play as an uber-soldier commanding a crack team of other ....uber-soldiers

more screens
 
pretty graphics but the game looks dumb as hell.
 
Germans must be so sick of WW2 games. Every one it's "KILL THE ****ING GERMANS" :P
 
they're just killing the WW2 genre now..............i used to love them and still do but COD and a few others are the only ones holding it together

Now? The fact is it's such a damn profitable genre, still!

I think ww2 still has a lot of milking ahead of it. I can easily forsee a dozen ww2 game sfor every next gen engine over the next 10-20 years.
 
What, exactly, is he using to pick up that Nazi?

This is what I hate about a lot of developers. They think the only thing that needs to be upgraded is the number of polygons or graphical effects. They don't seem to realize that as you increase the image quality and make things look more realistic they actually have to interact more realistically... or you'll ruin the realism. For example, you can't lift things without something actually coming in contact with them. They should work on making him grab the guy's lapel or neck so that it looks even remotely feasible.

On a side note: Is this game about short recoil?
 
I cant stand games like this.

2 Americans kill 1000's of Germans please.

Graphics look OK but the game concept is retartded.

Are they trying to make people stupider by making games like this.
 
Wow, I love how you people act like you know what the hell the game's about.

That's why they write previews of games, so we DO know. :)

Most games have you set up as an uber-soldier. Would you really want to be another Joe-Nobody in a war? Or would you be the hero? Which do you dream about more, having a desk job or being SuperMan/Woman?

Games are all about entertainment, and there isn't a lot of entertainment in normal life TBH...
 
Sounds like some of you forgot what "fun" means! I'm happy that there's finally a semi-serious WW2 with some gameplay based on bar-brawl tactics. It should make a break from the crap like Call of Duty and Medal of Honour: Extreme Enemy Bunkers or whatever they've got.
 
some of you seem to be forgetting that if games aren't meant to be just like real life, or who would buy them?

but ive read about this game, it seems pretty crazy. apparently you can call for reinforcements and tanks will drop onto the battlefield out of the sky.

Actually... I rather like games where i'm *NOT* the hero. Being the hero is so cliche in gaming. If you work to become the hero, as an ordinary man, then thats a good game to me. No fun when you start as the hero.

For example... I love a game where I am pitted against the game world as one of many, with me, and my other A.I. Buddies. Games like doom, and duke nukem, where you're just a single man against an army are dull, in my eyes... done too many times. Games like call of duty, where you're the central figure from your own point of view, but all the other buddies you have are just as important to the goal from a storyline standpoint... except for the fact that they don't usually live as long :)

Battallion of commandos taking on an army, with you pitted as a single soldier? Dream game for me.

Single, lone soldier taking on an entire army, with you being that soldier? Less appealing game to me.



Anyways, I dont know how many times I can reiterate what I mean, so i'm going to stop now.
 
Woohoo! more WWII crap shovelled in our faces...
I just want the team that did BiA to rework the game and make it not so scripted and have better graphics, that would be the WWII game to beat
 
If it has co-op it would be pretty fun as just a good 'ol beat 'em up.

Operation Flashpoint ftw.

And I would like a WW2 game where I get to play as a Nazi. Props to the developer with the balls to do it.
 
Yeah, and guys, this is by Relic iirc, which is one of the few devs I have faith in.
 
Damnit, I hate these kind of games. I don't want to be uber soldier german killer. That's why I loved the original Rainbow Six's so damn much. You're just another guy, make sure you do your job, and your squad mates do theirs, and this mission so go off without a hitch.
 
The Rocket Launder is going thru his ass.. Poor guy.

What? Any multiplayer WW2 game has a playable German side.

Also, one of my favorite yet never-heard-of game, Soldiers: Heroes of World War II, has a whole campaign for the germans. As well as the Americans, British, and Russians.

Only games I can think of that don't let you play as Germans are the mainstream CoD and MoH. But even then you can do it in multiplayer.

As of now the only WW2 game I'm waiting for is Company of Heroes.

Soldiers: Heroes of World War II is an awesome game, but sadly recieved far too little attention from the media and players... which makes multiplayer lousy cause you can never find a game. Though, they did implement multiplayer game hosting/searching badly. When you got into a game? A blast, however!

I mean heck, look at the user reviews. http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/outfront/readers.html

I bet not even 1/8th of you have tried this game.
 
I got sick and tired of WW2 games back with MoA...They just started FLOODING. I got fairly annoyed with it. I still stand by my thought too :(
 
Just find some scifi model replacements and you'll have a completely different game.

I was speaking in terms of single player narrative.

I second that.
 
Who ever created this game deserves to be shot. Then repeat the cycle until dead.
 
I want a Game where you play as a german an go kill commies
 
why? not you seem to forget Russia attacked Poland the same time as Germany,they where allies Germans betrayed them,they betrayed the western allies
They attacked Finnland and so on .They arent as "good" as you think
 
If you want some Commie bashing check out Sniper Elite, not sure when released but linkage

Never said they were good. Its just something you would say and I found it funny :P
 
well ok....Dont get me wrong Im not a Nazi I just it would freshen the genre a bit if game had German Campaigns
 
no kidding, would be cool to see a game where your a young german farm kid forced into fighting for the german army. The story line could be taken in any direction depending on how the player chooses his or her actions. I think would be interesting.

PEACE

they arent nazi's, that is a german soldier getting manhandled.
 
I'd like to see a WWI game played from a german's perspective.

Although I admit it would be a bit boring.

Level 1: sit in trenches and wait. level 2: blindly run 20 yards while screaming and getting mowed by machine gun fire. level 3: sit in more trenches and wait.
 
Yeah, can't see how that would work.

Although during Christmas you could have a football match with your enemy.
 
A WW1 game would be awesome, this game looks too Gung-ho to be fun

That's why they make it for console.
