I was! Thank you for reminding me, I haven't decided on pre-order or not...amazon is amazing btw, most games they will deliver release day for free...same price + dropped at my door? Yes please....

What are you getting it for? I can't remember if it was going to be released on multiple systems...I know Ps3...

I was following the development some time ago, and it looked like it some good features and exciting ideas about gameplay,

This has prompted me to look at it again, thanks!

Don't know if I'll get it straight away, I try not to buy new games too often, and Portal 2 was too recent!

I've got it preordered for the PS3. It looks like a lot of fun, kinda like Mirror's Edge crossed with Team Fortress 2.

I'll probably rent on Xbox, and if I like it, buy off steam for PC

I listened to all the videos yesterday and it doesn't seem that interesting to me.  It's like COOP TF2 without the diverse classes.

I'm getting it for PC of course, getting it from Direct2Drive cause really, they're just selling you license to unlock on Steam.  So why not just buy it on steam?  I was able to use one for their 20% off coupons on the preorder :D

@Blhurr I don't get what you mean without the diverse classes of TF2. The biggest thing is that weapons are restricted to body type and not class, but "perks" are class specific.  It allows for a lot more diverse combinations.  Example would be that I could be in a heavy body which lets me use the big weapons and have a medic class for better front line healing/fighting!

At the same time I could be a light body solider class that could maneuver all over the place to create better ambushes or flank.  Or a Medium body operative that can disguise myself and have a longer health bar and bigger weapons.

Wow, very lazy ;)

Well I guess we'll start with: http://www.brinkthegame.com/ (but thats the official website, so it'll be bias)
Then we have: http://uk.pc.ign.com/objects/143/14349120.html (but thats newscorp, nuff said)
And also: http://www.gametrailers.com/game/brink/11373 (but thats MTV networks)
Now: http://reviews.cnet.com/pc-games/brink-pc/4505-9696_7-33667710.html (but its CBS, and a crap page)

In summary, damn you internets, damn you big corporations

Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrHjmMJJ-fg

Also surprised that no-one has mentioned, "why the long face?"
And I take back what I said about laziness Bill, its hard to find good pages sometimes

Ill be grabbing this when it comes down in price simply because i think the movement system looks awesome.

New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

I did the Direct2drive pre-order and coupon on the pc for under £20 delivered.  I've been a fan of Splash damage for quite along time (as I used to work there briefly :P) and I know quite a few people who worked on this and I'm sure it will be an excellent game.
