But in those 17 years since, we've never really seen a dedicated action game try and put all the aspects of an action game's online and offline modes together at the same time - and most importantly, make it work. Brink is the first game to give it a very serious try, with a dystopian future on a futuristic floating city that's seen better days. Every way you play the game is actually the same mode, and while developer Splash Damage (creator of the hit PC shooter Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory) has mostly been showing off actual multiplayer modes, this year at E3 they decided to show off single player action that looked suspiciously like you were in a multiplayer match".

AAA games get all the attention. But some games get lost in the shuffle. Especially shooters! Make time for these five.
I didnt care for brink. I thought it was going to be like overwatch back in the day.

It’s time to Switch to Brink before taking 12 Orbits around Letters from Whitechapel? That sort of works.

Six years later, and the game is available to anyone who wants it on PC.
