Brink 2022: It's NOT as bad as you remember
Ойындар
Brink still lives in my mind and I can't escape it even in 2022. I replayed it once again to check it out since a few commenters had said that they genuinely enjoyed this game. These guys be crazy. But maybe, just maybe...
it's not as bad as you remember.

@@LemThurdy420 no it didn't. It's clear he's making fun of it. And he's not wrong about many of its flaws. But I still thought it was a fun game with some cool ideas, many of which have probably been done better by later games at this point. That said, the super deep character customization was a great element i haven't seen in other games of this genre.

Splash Damage still exists and makes games, so there's a chance, since they own the IP, not Bethesda.
This game was ahead of it’s time. Wall Run, Parkour, Slide, Peaking around Cover. I truly believe this game influenced many of the CoD games with certain mechanics

Ah so this is why CoD sucks. It all makes sense now.
This was the last game my childhood best friend played with me before he moved to a different state. Tbh I didn’t even notice how bad the game was, I was just glad my friend was there.

This game was underrated. I remember randomly buying this game because it was a shooting game and I fw shooting games like Cod. I do not know what the game was about because I was only in 3rd grade. The game was fire. I still have it till this day.
I played this when I was a kid and am still in love with it. The game not delivering enough hype is just not true. It's fast paced, has a very interesting story, and the character customization and abilities chart are my favorite things about it.

I don't know... Brink was the first game I got on a hype train for. I assume you weren't around for all it's prerelease marketing? Not just that one cinematic trailer but lengthy discussions about gameplay decisions, what their goals were, lots of early footage... The game somehow got *less* polished over time. I'm fairly sure they pulled the Ubisoft trick of totally prerendered, simulated "gameplay" because the animation quality of those early trailers was wonderful. The objectives were even more interesting. Then the game came out, and it ran like hot garbage, and the maps were cramped to the point where a lot of the wacky class interactions just didn't apply, every map was a meat grinder. It only delivered on the concept in a hollow, very unfinished-feeling way. It *should* have been the culmination of everything Splash Damage had made thus far, instead it was pretty mid by comparison, too janky to take the crown. Then Dirty Bomb happened and it was just a much less ambitious Brink which was... disappointing.

The game was not what we were promised but 100% would have succeeded as a free to play or cheap title. At full price it’s understandable why so many missed out

Still one of my favourite games of all time, I don’t even care what the haters say
This game was made 11 years ago, the only reason why the game seems so bad is because it was made for its own time. Look at this game from a 2011 view not a 2022 view.
This game brings back memories,and I loved how you could customize your class

It was an amazing game I loved it the story line and the fact that you can choose sides was amazing and it truly great for its time I’d love to see a brink or something similar it reminds me of over watch!😳😳
There was no shooter at the time with parkour as a core mechanic execept Brink and you can count Mirrors Edge too. Fast forward today, all big shooters has parkour. I unlocked everything in this game in the same year of launch lmao.
I loved this game and now that I have a PC I will play it. Its still sad for me that the sequel was cancelled.

@@alfhar3649 Dirty Bomb is a great game. Brink felt like a Singleplayer Team Fortress 2 in a way and Dirty Bomb is kind of like that too.
The action is pretty good I love the sound effects. And its very satisfying for anyone trigger happy. Even better when playing this and drinking a cup of coffee or an energy drink.
Sometimes a bit of self reflection has made me go back to a game i intitially hated but then ended up loving. Sometimes i think a game is poor but then realise that maybe i wasnt in the mood for that particular style of game and give it another chance when i am in the mood.

Literally found this video cause I searched “what happened to brink” I loved this game as a kid
Bro I loved this game when I was a kid , this game kept me so entertained throughout the years I played it . I wasent old enough to know what the fuck a good game even looked like. This game is very dear to me
It was fun when it game out 100%. It just felt like a generic mirrors edge+cod game and the character customization was also pretty good.
when i was young like 15 this game came within the ps3 i enjoy it so bad now i have my first pc gonna go and enjoy this masterpiece again.! thx you man
The character customization was epic that was enough for me. I really want to experience it again as it's nostalgic.
I really enjoyed this game despite its flaws. Even after it had already died for the most part I got some full xbl parties together for it and it was glorious.
I was watching Handler play pug and he had an smg and somehow my brain said “Hey remember that one game you can parkour with smgs?” I was like holy shit! I searched the game till I found it and now I’m here.Honestly I got a feeling this game sparked so much ideas to game developers.It looks horrible but I still love the feelings I get from this game 😂
My mum bought this for me in a blockbuster used section in early 2012 and I loved it, when you’re a kid you value any game you have.
this game is game of my childhood i remember playing this as a kid on my ps3
Brink is and will forever be one of my favorite games of all time. The hate was never deserved and those who doubted came in without an open mind
tbh brink was a game i truly enjoyed, even if i was bad because i was so young and didnt understand a lot of it even though i understood cod, i still loved how different brink felt, the customization, everything about the movement was super fun aswell. Brink was honestly ahead of its time.
I used to always play this game when I was little and while I was searching for a random game to download I saw it and the memory's just flooded back in
Without the internet reviews, I would not probably know that it is a bad game. I was just having fun back then…now it’s 2023 and remembered this and surprised that the reviews are actually bad..reinstalling this at the moment to bring back childhood memories. I was probably 13-14 years old when I first played this
Brink was honestly so fun
Just started playing today the game was on my buddies shelf I’m having a blast
This is on the pan store but I’m curious if you can play it online on ps5 does anyone know??
I have vague memories of this game from when it first came out, and fond ones at that
Facetious reviews could be a whole new category
I remember maxing every class and doing every challenge to get all the weapons and attachments, looking back now I have no idea how I had the time for that some of these levels were so sweaty
This game was peak for my childhood. Dont dis something this great
first time my mom bought this game, i was so excited about the customization and the movement system... ah to be innocent again
bro im actually crying rn,i had brink on the 360 and it makes me so sad that i dont have it or the 360 anymore
I loved this game soo much like I played it 24/7 for years
I remember I would get Brink from Redboxes small selection of games . And remember having such a blast on multiplayer!
I love Brink! Great game
holy shit i was looking for this game from my childhood glad i found it had to look up fps shooter xbox 360 list and scroll for 2hours just to find it.
Wow. I've always wanted to olay this game, but this is the first time ive seen gameplay and an opinion for it 😂.
Yea I got this game at full price on my birthday many years ago. I don’t regret it. It’s very fun and I’ve fully played it through many many many times. The DLC is great and funny, and I desperately want either a remaster, remake, reboot, or sequel. Preferably remake. I also find myself deeply enamored with the story everytime I replay the game. It’s a fantastic concept that I haven’t seen done in any other form. Also, soundtrack is baller
Another gem by a gem of a homie
I loved this game so much
Brink was a simple game from a simple time
I wasn’t able to play fps games young cuz I grew up in a sheltered household, this was one of the first fps games I was able to get in store at like 14, I loved it and still have the physical disc. Wish there was a brink 2
yup i love it, i need some game that takes me away, I keep coming back to brink
Damn… I miss this game. 🙏😭
you run like you have cinderblocks tied to your feet xD
I got this game on clearance when I was a teenager and still had more time to play a lot of Xbox. I remember it being pretty okay! But absolutely nobody played it by that point and it became a distant memory.
I loved this game, especially that container fortress where you could stand at the top with a sniper.... Forgot all about it!
I loved the armor customization
I loved playing brink mostly cause like you said movement freedom and shooting I loved it I'm thinking of buying a ps3 and brink to play it more
I was like 7 playing this game man I finally found the name and I miss the days
Loved this game when I was a kid
Love this game no joke
I miss this game so much
I still to this day feel like I am owed some sort of compensation for pre-ordering/paying full price for this game and having to endure it
It wasn't too bad but it did get old fast. But it brings back some good memories of a better time.
I think as a kid this dropping and having customisation was awesome
Good video, master gamer
i miss this game so much ngl i want ti get a pc and play it agina
I personally loved this game. Had so much fun with it!
i dont even wanna think abt how much time i put into this game as a kid. had it on the 360, aint have live either i played the story over an over again lmao
I enjoyed this game for the short period of time i played it for.
I just remembered this game, I'll have it on Xbox360 back then, was there any real idea or was it just like u choose between ark and resistance and got 3 objectives with random maps thats it with same end. back then I just press play randomly and just play so dont remember xD
Me and my cousin played this all the time as kids it was definitely a great game
To be honest I really wish Brink would come back😭
Still like this game though. Really interesting vibe and nice setting. Gameplay was a bit janky true
This game was fun, loved it
I absolutely loved this game
BRINK was just outclassed by the games produced back during the golden era of games. Nowadays, where the same shit gets produced on a monthly basis. BRINK is a fucking gem. Also BRINK iirc was one of the earliest games that really pushed Parkour with its fps gameplay.
I have fond memories of playing this on my 360, and grinding out dozens of hours to get "The Anger" set. Now that I look back on it, idk why they didn't try to make a Brink 2 after all this time.

Back when this game was being advertised, and hyped I was going to get it, but I guess I put it off for so long that it was 2022 before I could even play it. I guess I'm glad I didn't pay full price.
Brink was advanced for it's time, the graphics were crazy good.
This game was £20 after 2 weeks of its release. I knew what I was getting myself into when I bought it.
