The brutes in Halo 3 were aweful... they were nothing to fear.
In Halo 2, if a brute when berserk, you acually got scared. You had to keep running back until you killed it. It ran as fast as a mongoose.
Brutality as defined by ease to kill. In Halo 2 the brutes were just as awkward in their charges (though in a different way) but the biggest difference was in their health system.
In Halo 3 when a brute charged the act never really got him anywhere because, unless he was a hammer chieftan, he only charged when his armor was blown off and he was naked and vulnerable. In Halo 2, any lone brute would run at you and he did so at full health and, on top of that, with a health mechanic that made him quite a bit more difficult to kill than his depantsed counterpart in Halo 3.
As for ODST, with your new health model Brute charges will probably be a bit more nerve racking than in Halo 3 but probably not as "brutal" than Halo 2's because, after all, they aren't bullet sponges.
