Spelled metro wrong :P

I'll likely get these when they hit 30 bucks. Too many games, not enough cash. I gotta shoot for the big ones first.

Don't know anything about Brink.

Looking forward to playing Metro 2033 when it was announced last year that I was willing to go get the english translated book.

Metro 2033 is far from overlooked, but Brink is rarely mentioned.

Had my eye on Brink for a while now. Looks like KZ2 + TF2 + Mirror's Edge lol.

As for Metro--I haven't been following it at all honestly. So thanks for bringing it to the forefront of my attention :). Looks cool.

If Metro 2033 can score a 8.5 or higher, it might be worth taking a look at this year.

Everyone's waiting on reviews for Metro, so the hype won't be big for another month. We'll probably see a lot of Brink at E3. Bethesda needs to get it out before Reach though or else it might bomb.

How extremely shallow of you to not play games that doesn't get a certain rating by one person on one website.

Not too sure about these titles.

I honestly haven't been keeping track of either of them.

I'll wait for some reviews and demos.

Metro looks neat.

It's seems like they actually have managed to develop a nice dark atmospheric artsty1e that you can actually see in. I hate games like AvsP or Condemned where you basically can't see anything.

It's a shame it feels a little too much like Stalker because I've invested in that fiction already so I don't think I need another game like this right now.

I thought Metro was getting a lot of praise so far. As for Brink, looks good from what I've seen before, but also the kind that can disappoint unexpectedly. I'm keeping my eyes on both, but most likely will wait for a review on Brink before I rush out and buy it.

Is it just me, or do those monsters bear a striking resemblance to Tokka from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret Of The Ooze? Have a look.

Both are in my book as day 1 must have.

The last game from Eenemy Territory creators, Quake Wars, was a heavily underrated masterpiece, the most deep and rewarding multiplayer shooter since Battlefield 2. Even the outstanding BC 2 rush mode pales in comparison. I expect more from the Splash Damage game than from id's RAGE.

Metro 2033 looks phenomenal, like a more linear S.T.A.L.K.E.R. but even better visuals and equally intense atmosphere.

I'm very iffy about Metro 2033. Great concept, but I just can't shake the feeling that it's going to be very underwhelming. Maybe it's just me.

From what i heard and seen it is a mix of fallout 3 and S.T.A.L.K.E.R, will wait and see if it is any special.

Its really nothing like either. Pure singleplayer shooter, all completely linear and highly scripted. Which is far from a negative thing as long as the developers do a good job of it.

To be honest, the Brink gameplay I've seen didn't look interesting. And Metro hasn't shown enough. They could be good, but I can't hype them like Halo Reach and BC2.

Brink looks cool! Yeah ive been hyped for that since it was announced. But I seem(ed) to be the only one who cares. It has Killzoney graphics but with color. And metro, eh. It looks like something ill rent, but if its good hey why not.

I think Brink looks amazing, actually, and it's one of the shooters I'm most excited about this year b/c it promises new gameplay mechanics. As for Metro 2033...I'm skeptical, I'll wait for reviews before getting it.
