Awesome video. I love what they've done with the UI. It's functional, minimal, and consistent with the game's art style.

I strongly disagree. In fact, I think they've done an amazing job with the SMART system. It's new and innovative, and it'll certainly make for interesting games. It's also much better than the standard "walk, run, and crouch" + "cover" approach to most first- and third-person shooters.

Well I do have my doubts about it but it does look like it has the potential to be amazingly fun. I just hope I can turn the weapon bobble down, or off. :laugh:

Oh yeah, about the release date. The game will be releasing at midnight EST, or 9pm pacific standard on the 9th according to the posts I've read. That's why Steam says it will be unlocked on the 9th for me. They still haven't said when we'll be able to start pre loading though.

like Pupik i really don't feel like getting this at all. however, the dedicated gamer in me cries foul over not supporting a new franchise...can't say i have too much money to spare at the mo. choices choices, huh?
What other choice do you have? Crysis 2 is dead in the water. BC2 is now just plain boring. COD:BO is...well never played so </insert generic comment here>.

I'm unsure how I'm going to react to Brink yet. Hopefully I will like it. I've been looking forward to it ever since it was annouced after ET:QW.

yeah Singh i agree that we don't have too many choices at the moment in terms of new stuff. Crysis 2 is OK, i'm fine with the MP on the 360, it's not great, but workable. i've been done with Black Ops for months and yes, BC2 is long in the tooth, can't go back to that, enough is enough. let's wait for the reviews and the community reaction on this one.

Awesome videos. I never thought I'd be torn between the X360 and PC versions. Initially, I planned on getting the PC version but lately my friends have shown interest in the game. With only Crysis 2 and 10 months of Gold on my Xbox Live account, I'm really tempted to get the X360 version instead.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, don't do it!

For people who are still on the fence about this game, if you order from direct2drive it's on sale for $45, plus if you use this link:

http://direct2drive.tellapal.com/offers/615051861/interstitial/brTQr

You can get an additional 15% off so the total comes to around $38 and some change.. I don't know where it's valid for though, I think maybe US only. Limited time only.

Steam pre load is available now. Also I've read that the xbox 360 version of the game has already been leaked. If true that's :rofl:

Also from this interview:

http://www.fragworld.org/frag/brink/fragworlds-brink-qanda-with-richard-ham.html

Q: Will you be able to turn on/off head bob on all platforms?

A: Yup, on all platforms.

Makes me happy.

Thanks for the heads up - both the head bob and the pre load.

Here's another 25% off code for d2d: sizzle

I think this one only works in the US though, can be used for other games as well.

(The Witcher 2 is $33 with this code on d2d)

There's also a Brink and Fallout: New Vegas Digital CE bundle here:

http://www.direct2drive.com/10839/product/Buy-BRINK-with-Fallout:-New-Vegas-Digital-Collector%27s-Edition-Bundle-Download

Using that code above you pretty much get NV for free and a little of Brink ta boot.

Suppose I should post this in the special offers thread, too. :rofl:

    • TerraMaster F2-425 Pro review: a low-powered Intel NAS that ships with AI (OpenClaw)

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I agree, especially if it is cloud sourced, like this one is.. but I wouldn't say no to a local AI assistant similar to the Zettlab one which would be really helpful with my large Photos library, but also to perform tasks like installing Docker apps rather than me having to do it via Docker Compose, but I don't think we're quite there yet. Synology Photos is somewhat AI, you can ask it to search for certain people (if you have tagged them and it will attempt to match similar photos to the person) and if you put a search term in for "cars" for example, it will show you all photos with a car.

      I doubt that Google will keep the same price... it may go up from that list published.
    • Sennheiser's audiophile grade HD 600 hits lowest ever price on Amazon Prime Day 2026

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Sennheiser's audiophile grade HD 600 hits lowest ever price on Amazon Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen If you are in the market for high-quality audiophile-grade over-ear headphones then Sennheiser's HD 600 are a great choice for sure, especially today on Prime Day 2026 as the product has hit its lowest ever price (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Sennheiser HD 600 has long been regarded as a reference headphone for listeners seeking a detailed and natural listening experience. It is an open-back design that is built around the idea of acoustic transparency which is essentially said to allow sound waves to move freely for a more spacious and accurate presentation by reducing turbulence and the type of distortion that can result from it. At the heart of the product is Sennheiser’s proprietary driver system featuring a 42 mm driver paired with a lightweight diaphragm and aluminum voice coils. The company says this design helps deliver fast response times and better articulate sound across the audible frequency range. Comfort and durability are also key aspects of the HD 600 as the headphones feature soft velour ear pads designed for extended listening sessions. The HD 600 comes with a detachable 3-meter cable, a 6.3 mm stereo connector, and a 3.5 mm adapter for compatibility with a wide range of audio equipment. The technical specs of the Sennheiser HD 600 are given in the table below: Specification Value Transducer Principle Dynamic, Open-Back Ear Coupling Circumaural (Over-Ear) Frequency Response 12 Hz – 40,500 Hz Sound Pressure Level (SPL) 97 dB (1 V) Impedance 300 Ω Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) < 0.1% (1 kHz, 1 V) Cable Length 3 m (9.8 ft) Connector 3.5 mm Stereo Jack Plug Included Adapter 6.3 mm (1/4") Stereo Jack Adapter Weight 260 g Magnetic Field Strength 1.8 mT Driver Size 42 mm Dynamic Driver Diaphragm Size 38 mm Get it at the link below: Sennheiser HD 600: $237.00 (Sold by Electronics Expo, Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $449.95) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      So the card is targeted at headphone users - so the review should be from someone that uses this - maybe I can review a card next time.
