Brutal is a new breed of multiplayer fighting game that blends elements from popular fighting games like Mortal Kombat and Soul Calibur with those of a typical first person shooter like Half-Life 2 or the Quake series.
Unlike most fighting games that only allow 1 on 1 combat with a shared camera forcing you to attack your opponent on a single 2-dimensional plane, Brutal allows players to experience combat in full 3-dimensional glory. No more shared camera, no more miniscule arenas! Brutal lets you go where you want to and fight anywhere on the battleground! Fight on rooftops, inside buildings, on the streets or even on mountaintops, there's no limit to where you can roam! And with your own individual camera, you have complete and independent control of everything you see. With 12 unique fighters each with their own skills, fighting styles and special weapon; your playing experience will change every time you play. Tired of using the same weapon every time you fight? Brutal's destructible environments mean that virtually anything in the battleground can be turned into a weapon! Cars, lampposts, trees, rocks, broken rubble and even other fighters can all be used to stomp your opponents into oblivion! Brutal is unlike any fighting game on the market and it will be BRUTAL!
Brutal - a source engine mod being developed by Surrogate Interactive with dreams of becoming a full retail project -has had it's trailer uploaded to their website for your viewing pleasure. You can watch the trailer which also includes a director commentary at Brutal.surrogateinteractive.com
"We are looking to innovate the fighting game genre by putting the action of a first person shooter into an arena style environment. Our gameplay will focus on how each player moves about in the 3D environments and how the variety of characters will provide a multitude of playing styles and tactics. Some of our characters will be capable of wall running and super jumps allowing them to take advantage of the vertical space in order to launch attacks or gain access to hidden items that others characters cannot. Other characters will have the ability to deform the environment in various ways, such as pushing over pillars, or smashing through walls to open up hidden areas or destroy environment structures. We feel our concept will provide a new, deep and rewarding multiplayer gaming experience. As the current videogame market is saturated with Shooters and online RPGs, we feel our project provides much needed variety."

Is this still going on, it looks amazing. I really would like this to come out.
well, just to inform you, there is a real 3d fighting game.
Dragonball Tenkaichi 1-3 (Ps2)
It offers a free (but limited) 3world to fight in.
If you were to consider a website redesign i would be interested in helping you, though it would be intirely based in flash...
Thanks for the offer Matt. We're going to be doing a complete re-design very soon, though I prefer it to not be flash based. Some flash is ok, but not the entire site imo.
looks good
I really love the female girl with the robotic arm... its really a cool idea with the arm folding out to be 2... on question thou... Is her human arm inside of the arm or is it all robotic... the reason i ask is that the the arm is to far from the torso if you know what i mean...
Bionica's arm was torn off by B.I.O.S. at a certain point in the game's story, so the arm is completely cybernetic.
i like it very much
That's the plan Killy.
