I personally love the concept of the game. I'd like it to have a good narrative, though. After playing Uncharted and Mass Effect I find that to be almost essential in games. Anyway, all the ideas are great: the free running, the weapon customization, the weapon variety, the character customization, the perks, the leveling system... And the graphics are awesome. Really, REALLY slick visuals, as well as animations. Finally, looks like it has a really good shooting mechanic.


My only real concern with this game is that the campaign might be too short or underdeveloped due to the focus on multiplayer, and the characters seem to need to take a lot of punishment before they die. I prefer games where they die faster, but still looks like a great game and almost a certain buy from me.

I like what they're trying to do to make the online multiplayer portion better. Dishing out points for each bullet hitting an enemy so there's no kill stealing, choosing when you revive so a dumb teammate doesn't get you instantly killed and just the overall ability to chose your playing syle.

It looks nice but I have yet to decide if I'm going to buy it or not.

I haven't really seen enough info about it to really say whether it's looking good or not but it's definitely on my watch list.

While it is not my most anticipated shooter, it certainly looks to be the most interesting. I am really looking forward to it.

Looks good but I'll need to see some reviews to confirm this.

It will be fun in co-op but the MP versus mode might be a bit meh. But the actual art style looks great.

I so agree. I think the MP will be good though. Individuality with character creation and weapon customization is always welcome.

It looks like a cross between Mirror's Edge & MAG's gameplay and to be honest I'm not interested. I'm not a huge online gamer, which seems to be the game's strong point.

From what I have seen so far, it looks like a day 1 buy.

Well it does have some great animations, so MAG doesn't really apply as comparable to Brink in terms of visuals, at least. And it does have a "story" mode, whatever that's worth for a game that hasn't seen a single story trailer. I'm rather worried about the narrative in this game.

It looks okay, like one of those games I watch the trailers of but then never end up buying. I like the levelling up stuff, and the fact that you can play on either side of the conflict and neither is really right or wrong. But it's an FPS and I'm pretty darned bored with those, and the characters all look like knuckle-dragging neanderthals.

If the game turns out to be so focused on multiplayer that the single player isn't all it could be, I'll definitely skip it. If it ends up being a really good game, well, you never know.

IMO its bringing innovation to a genre where innovation is far inbetween. The big names deliver the same old **** year after year and truth is thats how the die-hards like it. Will their concept of story or overall direction of the game work flawlessly... doubt it. Does the overall gameplay seem awesome... hell yeah! Brinks gameplay is something people have been waiting for. Freedom of movement. No more chest high walls holding me back.

Preach it!! I'm buying it because I'm sick of Battlefield, Cod, and MoH style military shooters that don't change a damn thing.

It looks alright. Like I always say, I need a demo to try it out, then I can say my 100% answer.
