i absolutely adore this game, the graphics are pretty fantastic. the scale of the game is great, and although as others have said it is a similar concept every level the terrain is completely different and theres always a couple of new and different objectives. the person who complained that he kept respawning is just having a rant because he cant play games very well. the multiplayer is really good, i dont have internet for my 360 but i got endless enjoyment from sneaking up behind my brothers and building a ton of machine gun and artillery nests, then blocking him in so every time he re-spawned he just got blown to pieces again!

I was not expecting a great deal from this game and came away from it somewhat confused. The whole game seems to be self-contradictory. The graphics have some excellent moments and some poor moments, as does the sound. The same can be said for the gameplay - there are many sections or events that make you sit up and think "wow - that's really cool", but sadly there seem to be almost as many moments that frustrate or disappoint. Overall though I have to say that on the whole I enjoyed playing through the single player campaign. I did not get around to playing the multiplayer side of the game despite hearing good things about it. If you are prepared not to take the game too seriously and have some fun shooting and blowing stuff up then give The Outfit a try.

Where do i start?This game was a complete mess,a bit of a cheap version of mercenaries,the grapics were rudimentary,the controls were badly thought out and unresponsive and it was too easy,overall,probably the joint worst game i have played on 360,(along with rumble roses!)....avoid!

This game is very badly made, your teamate AI is useless and at most times it gives away your position. The single player keeps following the same pattern over and over again as u capture the armoury, motor pool and radio station. The enemy's tanks and vehicles are too equal to your own so you have a very hard time to blow anything up and all you find yourself doing it respawing and trying again until you get it. This and other minor aspects make the single player very frustrating to play. As for the online multiplayer, nobody was online, so no fun there!

This was easily the worse game I have had the misfortune to play on a 360!!! I was totally bored with it within an hour and I can honestly say that if I had rented it 5 years ago for my old X box I would still have been unimpressed...Needless to say I sent it back virtually straight away..avoid it at all costs....The only reason I've given it one star is because there wasn't a No star button!!!
