The Brink Mega Interview, Episode 1: The Background

Brink

Written Tuesday, September 29, 2009 By Dan Webb

If you haven't heard of Brink by now... where the hell have you been? Seriously, read our E3 preview here and come back when you're done. It's ok, you won't miss anything... we'll wait for you to get back before we start.

*twiddles thumbs*

Right, up to speed? Doesn't matter either way, because today we kick off the first part of our Brink mega interview with Splash Damage Creative Director, Richard Ham, where we cover everything there is to know about the upcoming spring 2010 shooter.

Episode one looks at the game's background, including story, what we can expect from the setup of the title and more. Not only is the content riveting stuff, but Ham himself has an energy about him that will keep you hooked from beginning to end.

Keep tuned the rest of this week for Episodes 2,3 and 4. You'll absolutely LOVE episode 4. FACT! Of course you'll love 2 and 3 also, but 4 is pretty unique.

	Saw it being played at PAX. What a great looking game. Even got a T shirt from it thanks to the folks at Bethesda :)

	So is this the project Bethesda is putting any Elder Scrolls games and Fallout etc to work on, Webb?

	@#3 - No, they're not developing this, they're just publishing it. Splash Damage are the developers.

	Brink is going to be one of the top shooters of 2010, mark my words. I know it's a bold claim, with 2010 already shaping up to be pretty much the best year ever for gaming (just think about all those unannounced but certain gems to come out of E3 next year...) but Brink will be near the top of the pile. The integration of seamless single and multi player I believe will be used by almost ever game in the years to come. Cannot wait.

	I would love to hang out with that guy. One of the best personalities I've ever seen.

	Sounds really immersive, but that guy talks fast

	Awesome. I've had this preordered for ages and wondered when it'd get some press time. Sounds great! I like that guy.

	Wow, #11 that was really insightful. Perhaps you can share some of your thoughts on the game - assuming you have any. This was actually a great interview with a really nice guy and he was genuinely into games, so his enthusiasm shines through. Unlike yours.......

	Even after 10 minutes he still had me interested in what he was talking about. The game sounds like it's going to be amazing, another one on my giant wanted list for 2009/Early2010

	This game was at E3 and they claim it to have better graphics than Killzone 2. We will see. ~Peace

	Who wants to bet it gets delayed from its spring release date?

	This looks pretty good but if you can play through the whole game against human players....easily boosted game much??
