The video game release list of 5/9-5/15

Splash Damage's Brink headlines next week's new releases, supported by LEGO Pirates of the Carribean, MX vs. ATV Alive, and more.

10

At long last, Brink, the fine-looking new shooter from Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory dev Splash Damage, launches next week. As a huge ET fan, it's all a wee bit exciting for me. If you're dead inside, though, there are other games coming out which you might fancy instead, you monster.

See, these ones:

PC

Xbox 360

PlayStation 3

Wii

Nintendo 3DS

Nintendo DS

PSP

      BRIIIIIIIINK It's killing me that this is sitting on my drive. I even tried to snoop in the files but SD encrypted the localized files this time. Or else they compressed the files with something other than .zip. Anyway, have a server ordered too. So I'm set.

        Where is the server located? I'm pumped. It's almost as bad as when Q3test came out.

      I will be happy as hell if Brink captures a huge chunk of the mp shooter market. I've been prepping my CoD-ified friends for months.

        With the free games for best buy/target employees ect. it seems like splash damage knows they have a winning product and is doing everything they can to make sure Brink gets off to a strong start. I don't normally recommend many games to friends before i've played them, but this one just looks to have it all going on.

        Is it going to have traditional multiplayer modes or just competitive story?

          It's essentially a spiritual successor to the Enemy Territory formula, so no traditional modes.

          100% objective based maps, attack and defense. No DM, TDM, or other 'vanilla' modes based on all of Splash Damage's past games.

        I know it's a joke! Buying games off steam is kind of starting to lose it's appeal for Australian gamers (steam itself is amazing though and I only buy games on steam now). Fortunately, Brink is a steamworks game so I can buy it from anywhere and activate it on steam.
        I bought it for $31AU from ozgameshop using a voucher code (which has now expired), but normally it's $38 which is still a great price!

      Has anyone preordered this or any other game from gamestop? Do they send keys right away like D2D is doing? Inquiring minds want to know.

      Brink is going to take a beating in PS3 sales. Even it's "singleplayer" is designed to be played online, and with PSN down...for at least another 3 weeks...yeahhh....
