Special command: Endoskeleton

• He is able to significantly better at fighting the recoil of the minigun if movement keys are pressed, so he can get better shots at enemies.

Trivia

• His normal is re-used for Bro Caesar.
• He can't be used in Deathmatch because of his unbalanced special.
• In Terminator 2, The T-800 was known for being prohibited from killing by his rebel programming, which wasn't the case in Broforce.
• For balancing reasons, Brominator's durability does not follow the much more resilient and realistic portrayals of the T-800.
• The weapon chosen for his fire command (a minigun) is likely a deliberate reference to his actual use of one in Terminator 2.
• If the player dies when Brominator is using his special (E.G. Falling out of bounds), they will get the achievement I'll Be back, referencing an eponymous quote from The Terminator spoken by T-800 whenever he is defeated and swears revenge.
• He's the only Bro besides the Brodator to be a parody of an antagonist.
• He is also the only Bro based on a cyborg, and one of the Two non-human Bros.
  • Technically, Brobocop is also a cyborg as he is Alex Murphy in a mechanized body, whereas Brominator is a robot with an artificially engineered hide covering his endoskeleton.

• Bullet casings can be seen ejecting from the minigun as it fires. However, they are much smaller than the actual fired ones.
• A helpful speedrun trick is to hold the fire button down while fighting the recoil left to right until it has reached the maximum then facing left and releasing the controls causing him to constantly push himself to the right at speeds much faster than his walking speed.
