Uh oh. Looks like I struck a nerve. Good thing I don't have work today.

I really don't care if you play Brink, but I try not to judge games without actually playing them, except for in a very few circumstances (like with my hesitation on Portal 2, just because I had played the first one, and ultimately I did try it for myself), or if I just flat out don't like the genre.

Brink is the first shooter I've played where you actually HAVE to use teamwork to succeed. I really like that. There have been times in TF2 where my team has won and everyone rolled Heavy. You couldn't get away with that in Brink if you're playing against a group that at least somewhat has their whits about them. I won't say anything about the Battlefield series, because, unlike you, I've never played them and won't judge.

I grew out of straight DM and CTF style shooters in 2006.

And how exactly does it do this? Because you have a gun and point it at people on the other team and shoot them? Please explain.

No, I'm seriously trying to suggest that you're a pretty big fucking tool to judge things based solely on what are most likely reviews filled with the reviewer's personal bias, instead of developing your own opinion, be it by actually looking into the game's features or watching just clean gameplay footage. Not to mention the fact that you're pretty notorious for being an argument starting cock around here, so I knew I'd get something out of you and have a little fun.
