HERES SOMETHING TO THINK ON ABOUT BRUTES:
If you read First Strike, then you know about the fight John had with the Brute. You also knew exactly how much (and thats alot) it took to kill one of these Brutes.
HOWEVER....
In the E3 Demo, those Brutes went down like Grunts. They're supposed to be so tough and strong in the book, but the Chief easily kills one with three hits of his rifle, and 2 shots in the chest.
MORE EVIDENCE THE BOOKS DON'T FULLY CORRELATE WITH THE GAME
The books do match the game. Listen and I'll explain.
In the book the cheif had on his old suit. In H2 he has on his new suit. If you remember a lot of his stregth comes from the suit and its enhancing technology. Thats why in the H2 E3 demo he was able to take the Brute out with a few hits. If you really want to get picky about it, he first shot the Brute, nothing happened, the Brute yelled, and then he whacked it, killing it.
The cheif's stregth has been increases with the new suit, therefore the Brute seem weaker than in the book.
