Brink

Hadn't seen it or heard of it, so when I saw it on the poll this week I thought I'd look it up. The first video I saw of this was this one:

Is it just me, or does this seem like TF2 had a baby with fallout 3 and then it somehow got assassin's creed DNA in there somewhere and got called Brink? I mean, assassin's creed style freerunning, fallout 3's post apocolyptic style and TF2's guy in a spandex mask with a overly tall revolver (towards the end by the way) and not to mention the cartoonish graphic presentation.

Overall it doesn't look bad though. Probably won't buy it, but I'd check it out if a friend had it or something.

Thoughts?

Just saw a gameplay trailer of it. Really, it looks like:

• TF2's classes
• "Halo-style"/"Doom-style"/"Standard Campaign FPS-style" gameplay
• Standard "Oppressive police force who doesn't realize their oppressive" vs. "Rebels in poverty"
• Assassin's Creed's RT+A, only just one button.
• RPG leveling system from completing objectives
• Character customization system from Guitar Hero
• Weapon picking system from Tom Clancy's games(Specifically, RS:V 2 and Splinter Cell: Conviction) as in, "Find a box and you can change weapon/class"

and then a bit of originality. Overall, it looks really good in comparison to some other games, but I'll wait and see.

Heres a good walkthrough, posted a while back but still good. Parts 1, 2 & 3 posted below:

Again, the "freerunning" isn't really that awesome. You have one key that you use to do your freerunning stuff for you. Can't actually control it like in mirrors edge

Hence why it reminds me of the Assassin's Creed RT+A. Hold it and run in the direction you want to run.

Well I'm going to play it before I buy it, but it looks like a lot of fun if the mechanics hold up during gameplay and feel good to me. The videos were great.
