I hated the load times most of all, when replaying the same event trying to get a better medal I would want to re-run the event over and over. When you want to start the event again you have to wait for the lengthy load time. Then each event had a little intro animation that would have to load, you can skip the animation to a point. If you skip it you face a short load time and then still have to watch a lead up animation that is not skippable. All the load/skip/unskippable time adds up when I was messing up with in the first 30 seconds of an event and wanted to restart. Some may like it and think it is great, obviously I didn't.

Nothing wrong with not liking it, I was just curious.

It's really bad idk how but I managed to beat the game


If your a fan you will like it I guess but I never played it before and this was my first time experiencing what it was about and it was corny

For those curious about Brink's online community (someone asked a few pages ago) and didn't see a response...On the 360, it wasn't very active last time I checked but for $10, the bots aren't that bad if you're stuck playing without humans IMO.

The SP was actually more appealing than the MP for me which was rare as normally with shooters, it's the other way around.

I bit on Duke Nukem and immediately felt a pang of buyer's remorse.

I'll probably give it a whirl and sell or trade it in real quick if I hate it.

Pretty sure the online community for Brink will experience a revival if enough of us buy it

Yea and nothing wrong with people liking it, just thought I would throw it out there since everyone seemed to praise it.

I honestly enjoyed the game and I am in the middle of playing it on insane hard difficulty which is pretty brutal. The game is good if you go into it knowing what you are getting. It is an old game with modernized visuals. It plays like a FPS shooter from 15 years ago which is fine, I enjoyed the games back then. It is not a modern FPS game, the puzzles are very basic, the enemies are very basic and it is otherwise over the top Duke style.

Honestly brink isn't some seriously short-term game everyone is calling it. It's pretty fun if you like objective based combat. It's definitely worth $10 it never was a $60 game though

did most of you guys get dnf for 360 or ps3?

COCK WHORE!!!!!

I missed NFS, I kept eyeballing it at $17.99 and thinking maybe it'd be in on this. :(

i just started playing through it tonight. Its pretty basic FPS with simple puzzles but its a fun game. Controls are good if you are used to 3D realms and ID games like Doom and obviously duke. I think its pretty solid gameplay. Worth the 10 if you ask me.

Dammittttt! Had NFS in my cart and forgot about it while playing a couple quest in Dead Island.....i really didnt think it would sell so fast geez...

sold out so damn fast because it's still $18 trade in at bb.
slickdealers jizzed themselves over that.

Did not look like it got huge play over there. 31 comments...more on this site.

Hoping NFS comes back in stock like other games have a few times. I really wanted it to play, have for awhile.

NFS - $18
DNF - $13
Brink - $7

Good way to get a time out really...Especially since it is a CheapyD thread.

Haven't bought games in awhile but can't resist these sweet GF deals. Grabbing NFS:HP brings my total to 5 from GF.

lets hope best buy drops them before just to lol at the people buying to flip
