I've been extremely bored lately and as I wait for The Witcher 2 to come out next week I thought I'd contribute instead of torrent and buy Brink. Looked promising as you can customize virtually every aspect of your character just like an RPG. You can also customize your weapons ranging from sights, to magazine clips, to nozzle, etc. I think this was the major selling point of Brink, the customization, and what the developers didn't focus on was the actual MP game play itself. If you loved Unreal Tournament objective based combat this is the game for you, but if you are like me and like the death match aspect of gaming then skip this game entirely. There is no true death match mode, lots of bugs hamper the game on the get go, and the S.M.A.R.T. move system can get frustrating at times. Not worth the $50...this is why torrenting is sometimes better...
