BEEN WAITING FOR OVER A YEAR!!
Now this game looks bloody brilliant. I like the view of this game, it’s not mindless violence like things such as Gears of War, you get to really see the sophisticated side about a shooter game. No, this aint about the good guys or the bad guys, you are a part of your own story. Brink, Rvolution Begins.
that incgamers guy loves it (http://ps3.incgamers.com/Previews/247/brink-preview)
so it sounds pretty good then…

Brink is a game with the Bethesda name on it. After Fallout: New Vegas, my opinion of anyone who continues to purchase their games on release day or even release day +60 is that they must have some sort of learning disability. I’m giving this one a pass for the time being.
