IGN: Sounding Off On Brink

IGN: "Brink is certainly one of the most striking looking shooters coming in 2011, but it's also going to sound amazing. The attention to detail on the aural side of things is staggering, and the lion's share of the credit goes to Splash Damage's Audio Director Chris Sweetman, who has gone to great lengths to create a layered soundscape, as you'll find out if you read on."

It is nice to see companies taking a deep approach to sound design. I find it to be an underused aspect in many games. The Splash Damage Brink dev diaries give some insight into this aspect as well. Sweetman is amazing, he also did sound in games like Black and Burnout Paradise which were stellar in that regard.

Just a bit over 2 weeks left until I can finally sit down and enjoy this one. I can't wait.

I only see PS3 and PC(?) taking advantage of high quality audio without the need of heavy compression for DVD.

Visually, it looks almost to Killzone but more colorful

I didn't know this game existed until today and don't know much about it aside from the fact that it's an FPS game...

"I didn't know this game existed until today"

lol where have you been this whole time??

thong_pounder5499d ago

Engineer is the only class who hears " I' m stuck on a mine "

I never thought of a fps including this kind of mine. Man this is neat addition in mine trap. I can see myself standing on them for a few minutes until I'm helped. This is why this game will be very fun to play with ur friends. Wish it had split screen

MaxXAttaxX5498d ago

Sorry, I just haven't kept up because of the lack of info around.
We'll probably see more info on it as it gets closer to release time.

@NathanExplosion

There's plenty of information available on this game. In the top-right corner of this page, you'll see a magnifying glass; click it. Enter your search, "Brink", into the space next to "Tag". When your results appear, hit the correct link. You'll then have access to all of Brink's info, interviews, previews, screenshots, and videos in the familiar N4G format.

It does look striking. Strikingly cliche.
I was kind of interested until I saw the screens.
FPS games need to do a bit more to impress me now. There's just too many of them that look like the exact same experience in a different setting.

MysticStrummer5499d ago

I have to assume you haven't read a thing about it then.

Kee5498d ago

Well don't assume. Makes you sound like a dickhead.

Just look at the IGN's gameplay footage from E3 last year and try to tell me it isn't just a carbon copy of MAG with less players and better jumping.

maawdawg5498d ago (Edited 5498d ago )

Yeah, they are copying MAG. A game that is game that is large squad oriented, with a different art style, and drastically different gameplay pace. Please. Not even to mention the fact that you are basing your assumptions on IGNs coverage from LAST JUNE.

They are improving on their Enemy Territory series, it is the same exact concept they have been using for about a decade now. If anything all these games that people keep saying they are "copying" were the ones that bit off those games initially.

antz11045497d ago

E3 last year? You do realize Brink's coming out a year after that, right, lol? Trust me, Mystic is right on que, and he's not the one looking like a dickhead here.

Kee5497d ago

Yeah, it's been pointed out by someone else yesterday, so please read what's already been said and stop acting smart. Thank you for your co-operation.

antz11045497d ago (Edited 5497d ago )

As opposed to sounding dumb?

Lol, sorry. I read really unintelligent comments and feel the need to comment right then. Have a great day.

Tripl3seis5499d ago

day 1 bro cant wait just 2 weeks!!!!!

undercovrr5499d ago

Not impressed by the screens and gameplay i've seen. I guess i'll wait until it comes out to make my decision.

Rybakov5499d ago
