Brothers In Arms: Furious 4

Brothers in Arms: Furious Four owes less to Saving Private Ryan than to Inglorious Basterds; it's a bloodthirsty rampage starring a quartet that resembles an unholy cross between The A-Team and The Village People.

If history has taught us anything, it's that it is totally fine to take a giant dump on the Nazis. Make them space Nazis or zombie Nazis if you like, but make them Nazis - and give us lots of ways to make them dead Nazis.

Gearbox has caught onto this design principal. After half a decade of producing serious, thoughtful and altogether sombre Brothers in Arms games, it has unexpectedly decided to change tack entirely: Furious Four owes less to Saving Private Ryan than it does Inglourious Basterds; it's a bloodthirsty rampage starring a quartet that resembles an unholy cross between The A-Team and The Village People.

I'm not sure if the new game will win many new fans among service veterans, but on the basis of its E3 showing it certainly looks like it could be a good laugh.

Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 is a four-player FPS romp that appears to borrow heavily from Borderlands in terms of its co-op emphasis, class-building shenanigans, and cartoon sense of humour. According to the game's tongue-in-cheek narrator, the story begins "somewhere in Germany" during 1944. The eponymous quartet have been tasked with the ultimate goal of whacking Hitler, and have an inkling that their target might be in a small town where there's an Oktoberfest-style party going on.

The group swiftly decide to discard any pretence at subtlety, and it seems that the same could be said for the action itself. Within seconds of the demo's start the bodycount has hit double figures, and by its close it seems as if our four protagonists have wiped out half the entire town. The specialists themselves are somewhat bewildering in their appearance: there's a former lumberjack, still clad in much of his workwear; a Scottish chap in a flatcap with massive lambchops; a Texan cowboy with a branding iron; and a Native American with a Mohican.

As you might guess, each of the characters has a skilltree that fits their particular style. The Mohican guy can throw tomahawks, the cowboy has a flamethrower (because Texans like barbecues, I suppose), and the Scottish chap has a cattle prod (no, I can't work that one out either). In the E3 presentation it's the lumberjack, Montana, who gets to hog the limelight. Naturally he's got a hatchet he can hurl into Nazi faces, but he also gets to lay down bear traps; if you upgrade the right skill, you can also lace the latter with grenades. A guard will walk along, yelp in agony as the jaws clamp shut, and then explode as his mates rush in to see what the fuss is about.
