Despite what the other reviews might suggest to you - this isn't a 3rd person shooter. Much of the frustration that I imagine occurs from people randomly buying this is that they don't get that.This is a tactical game played from a 3rd person p.o.v.. So it rewards things like setting up appropriate defences, initiative and learning the strengths of the characters (loosely all 3 characters have different attributes and weapons which include things like speed and purchasing objects). Played as a tactical game its lots of fun. You influence the battlefield by what you stratergize (e.g. call in airstrike to destroy that emplacement there, or use the points (their only resource,gained from killing people or getting your arse kicked) to call in a jeep to circle behind? You can influence the battle, but you cannot expect (ala mercenaries) to take an army on by yourself and win.It is a good game - though not what you immediately expect. The singleplayer is frankly linear and grindable (you never actually die, just constantly respawn). Enjoyable for an hour or two but limited unless you gotta get all the acheivements.Multiplayer varies completely on your connection and the standard of you and your opponents. good connection = sweet game. oh so sweet, especially with 6 players. Basically each player respawns with 4 soldiers every time they die. you also call down emplacements which are manned by soldiers. These soldiers are independent of you and run their own ai. depending on how you're playing, its possible to have spawned 4 soldiers, plus how ever many guns you've placed in the map, plus any soldiers left alive from your previous death = a lot, possibly over ten. multiply this by 6 and you realise why there's a problem with multiplayer lag and performance.Smaller 1vs1 or 2vs2 games are more playable and lots of fun - outmanouvering your opponent to strike the death blow is tremendous fun and there are few issues with lag.One major problem (acknowledged by the developers) is that the vehicles have really poor control. This didn't bother me too much, but it is frustrating. Oh and water kills you. bad bad bad idea.

So, with some additional background information, I played this game back 7 years a go at a friends house, got the game a year later, raged because I was that bad that I couldn't finish a mission, sold the game, and 6 years later I brought the game again to complete the mission and now the games campaign is complete. Hooray for me... Now onto the product.The game came out in March, 2006 and it was a great hit then. The concept of the game is that you're able to bring up this cool UI and call in turrets, artillery, vehicles and airstrikes and for its time it was quite destructive. The game is based during WW2 where the Americans are in Europe fighting the Nazis.The game has local splitscreen multiplayer; online splitscreen for multiplayer; local co-op; online co-op; campaign and online multiplayer!The reason this review isn't 5/5 is because 8 years on, people have moved onto other games. There just about isn't an online to the game left. This is a big section of the game gone which only leaves the campaign, and the local co-op/multiplayer. Sure in a ... 1/24 chance that you'll check the multiplayer and may come across one straggler hoping for someone else to play with, but that'll be it.Side the lack of online multiplayer, for a 2006 game, it has a good campaign with a decent story to follow. The graphics are good enough for a game of its time, and the scale is pretty big.The game is pretty cheap, so if you're looking for a game to add to the collection or to just live some old XB360 gaming, sure. Go for the game, but again, there's no online left which will leave some achievements unachievable.

The Outfit is a perfect title for the XBOX 360 and is the one title that has grapsed the meaning of computer games, to have fun!!The graphics are extremly detailed, both on the vehicles and when exiting and attacking on foot. The calling in and positioning artillary and machine gun nests is the game main selling point. No other games offer such flexibility in how you take out the enemy. For Example: I won a multiplayer battle by loading up a jeep and driving at speed to the base where I used a flame thrower to "toast" the enemy, another time I strategically took each of the outposts and bombarded the enemy with the artllary I had called in.The multitude of weapons cause endless fun,there is nothing funnier then slapping a sticky bomb on the jeep that just run you over and having your best friends grin wiped off his face as it explodes!!!Have PG3 and call of duty to show of the grapics but if you really want true gaming buy the Outfit as it offers something different and I dont know about you but I am getting tied of sequels.

Like most, I was unsure about the outfit but bought it on the grounds that 'reviewers' always prefer to slate than praise and a fair few have praised this game.Once you have negotiated the 50-60hz issue (see an earlier review which helpfully explains how to do this), The Outfit blazes on to your screen with (I believe!) more than adequete sound and graphics (it is brilliant on a 42" HD ready Samsung LCD!).The gameplay is pretty linear, but it IS addictive, and a proper story line does add to the fun.It is a bit like a mixture of an early Command and Conquer third person strategy with a first person shooter - may be you could call it a second person game!At the much reduced current price,I dont think you will be dissappointed with what you get for your money.One final point for those people who find the vehicle controls tricky:-A)Have you tried to control a real tank?B)Forget ever trying to learn to fly a helicopter!Once you get used to them they're fine!!

I though that the outfit would be a pathetic game, the reviews had persuaded me not to buy (and make the mistake of getting perfect dark zero), but woweee i was wrong, i downloaded the demo and this is the one of most engrosing games I have ever played. The destruction on demand almost revolutionises the way you play, how could someone not have invented it already. The special effects and the sound effects seem very destructive... hehehe. The enviroment is easily modifiable (being blown up), and it is a very tactical game - you rely on capturing bases rather that death tolls - allthough killing is rather handy. I find the vehicle control great, it makes your melodramatic entries through a base wall seem very movie-like,but it may take a few tours around the map to get used to it. Try doing the campaign on at least medium, so you don't get aggrivated online like me. If you like mayhem, you must buy the outfit.

This is in reply to robakacaspers review, this game will play in high definition, all you need to do is.1. connect your 360 to your tv via the scart or composite input.2. Start your 360, and go to the display options, you can now switch to pal 60.3. Now you have done that, reconnect your 360 to the TV via your component cables.4. Start your machine up and play your game in all its glory :)This is some kind of bug that is present in the 360, even though the game displays in high def when using the correct cable, for some reason it still checks the pal settings before booting, once this has been changed it will be ok with all other pal 60 games too.P.S robakacasper it is unfair to condem this game because of this issue,this issue is also a problem with all pal60 only games i.e Dead or Alive 4

i was having trouble playing the outfit on my hdtv and the review at the bottom of this page did not really help - so after reading around here is how to fix the problem:on the lead coming from your xbox (the wire with the 2 protrusions each ending in 3 more colour ended wires) there is a switch that designates for tv or hdtv usage, flick that switch to tv.go into the dashboard and along to system, then to display. the tv setting which you have just changed on the lead will have now opened up a new menu - the pal settings menu. switch this to pal 60.game should now work properly.apparently you can now switch over to hdtv again (for the better image obv) and the game should still work.havnt tried it yet on mine so i dont know yet.hope this helpsxander

Have just ordered the Game on the basis of the demo.Originally puzzled why people have rated this as poor. Must admit it took me a little while to get into it, but once I'd learn't the controls, I was totally addicted to the gameplay.It involves strategy and manic arcade action and this is implemented in a unique and straight forward way. I think the Graphics are good and certainly not last Gen considering what is going on on the screen all at the same time.I think you need to remember that this is not providing the same realism as titles such as Call of Duty 2, but is more towards a Cartoon look which is complimented by really funny characters.As of late, I've been playing this online more than any other Game.Go buy it !! (or try the demo)

FIRST OFF SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVE REVIEWES THIS MAY HAVE ONLY PLAYED THE DEMO AS IN MY OPINION ITS VERY GOOD.GRAPHICS ARE ABOVE AVERAGE,SOUND ALSO GOOD AS IS PLAYBILITY....WHAT COULD BE BETTER THAN HIJACKING A NAZI AMOURED TRAIN AND DESTROYING PANZERS OR TAKING DOWN STUKAS WITH AA FIRE...IT EVEN HAS STATREGY ELEMENTS AS TO PLACE MACHINEGUNNERS AND CANNONS ETC TO DEFEND POINTS YOU HAVE CAPTURED...GET PAST THE FIRST LEVEL AND YOUR SEE WHAT A GREAT GAME IT IS,ONLY PAID £18 NEW.NOT ON TECHNICAL LEVEL OF GHOST RECON ETC BUT IS MORE FUN!!!!

This game is absolutaly brilliant if you're into it. This is NOT a FPS OR a serious strategy game but a fun almost cartoon game. If you are a serious gamer looking for a challenge then do not buy this game!! But if you are a casual gamer or are looking for a game to play with your mates then this is the perfect game. If you are not sure about whether or not this game is for you then i suggest downloading it, you only get one versus map but it's enough to learn the controls and decide whether or not this is the game for you.

I borrowed this game of my brother and thought wow, I went down the shop and paid £8 for it (pre-owned) and its a cool little game. Plays well, sounds good and is easy to use (some cool soldier comments). Its not a total 3rd person shooter more like you and a squad that follow you around and help you fight.Worth buying, better graphics and playability than a lot of the other new games now, jan 2009.score 4.5 out of 5.Welldone relic and thq, these are the sort of games I will buy.

I have presented this game to most people I know, the response has been either hate or love.For me I loved it, I compeleted it with no feeling of dissapointment. Now if you are a die hard call of duty fan or whatever you maybe won't like this as you will be comparing the two, but it is something differnet. The graphics are not so good compared to today's standards but online is very fun.

26.10.2007
