It's been quite a long time since Splash Damage first took the wraps off its incredibly promising multiplayer shooter Brink, and a wonderful hands-on session only made the wait even more torturous. Now, though, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Brink's nearly cleared for launch, and it'll be landing on May 17.
For the uninitiated, Brink's a team-based FPS that's big on subtle, smart refinements to the genre – including the vaunted S.M.A.R.T. movement system, which makes clambering over obstacles simple and quick. The game's aiming to position itself as a nexus point between single-player, competitive multiplayer, and co-op. Ambitious, sure, but from what we've seen, it may very well pull it off.
So then, back to counting down the days. Only now we're not, you know, counting from infinity.

Though not a Deal-breaker, am I the only one who hates the "cartoonish-somewhat-anorexic-disproportionate-art-scheme"? I mean come on, they all look like anorexic Yao Mings! Even the bulky ones just doesn't look right.
