TF2 graphics and classes + Mirror's Edge style free-running + call of duty gun-play and unlocks + customization options out the ass = tons of hype.
The only problem I have with this game is that it's a multiplayer only game that costs $60. Seriously? No, any game that is exclusively focused on multiplayer should instantly be discounted to at least $40.

The campaign is just all of the multiplayer maps, but played in order and with bots. THAT'S NOT SINGLE PLAYER, it's multiplayer with bots.Xzi said:
It's a parkour objective-based shooter of the kind that Splash Damage is known for. How can there not be a lot of buzz about it?
You can get it way cheaper from D2D, I think. And it's still steam activated, worth a look.Zhukov said:
You can't forget parkour!
After playing Mirror's Edge a few months ago every single fps I played afterwards I attempted to run up walls and climb pipes.... I suppose you could say it did not go over well...
But really, now that I've had a taste of parkour in video games I feel depraved not having more games around offering it. That along side the customization is what really intrigues me about Brink.

There's runnin' and shootin' and 'splodies and deaths and such?!
It must be a TF2 knock-off!!

this. when people make these odd comparisons i have to facepalm as to why..why in the hell are they thinking in such a manner.immovablemover said:
why do people insist on making claims in the form of hipsters and can't seem to see the simple logic involved..i probably wont get brink but it's quite easy to see why people would go for it.
Really though, is there any reason to point the copy-cat finger at every FPS that comes onto the market?
It seems with just about every release somebody must speak up with the claim that "it's all been done before..."
Just because a game may be similar to another does not (at all) make it a clone/knock-off/copy-cat/[what have you].

To me, it seems like a mix of Mirrors edge, Team Fortress 2, and Battlefield but all wrapped up for the console user. Im excited for it, pre-ordered it quite a bit ago, and hopefully it comes out as good as I hope it to be. In that case, it turely deserves its justified resergance in interest lately
Me being one of those people. I'm glad there's someone here talking sense. It was the free-running aspect that interested me, and when I played it last year even in it's unfinished state it looked like a lot of fun.Booze Zombie said:
It's all very interesting, and god willing this game will hopefully get people to work together. "The hell is everyone doing? Why aren't you moving the payload??".
