I wasn't too sure whether to get Brink or not (I love FPS), it was a maybe. But now that the reviews have rolled in, and majority of them are mediocre to negative and with what I have seen of the game, I won't be getting it. I'll just save my money until Duke Nukem for the summer and the HUGE titles that are dropping this fall.

Sixthaxis gave it a 9/10 noting that the single player is "a big non-event"

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
