Is there any beta or demo that will be out to give everyone a feel of the game before its released?

So far, it looks like there will not be.

If you go to the Brink FAQ stickied at the top it will answer this and a few more questions like it

There was a beta.

It was closed, and only accessible on PS3, and rumours said it was exclusive because there was a netcode issue on PS3 that they needed to work out.

(released demos after a few weeks of release)

Nope its the opposite of call of duty no need to worry.

I actually hope there is a demo released AFTER retail release. But they only way they would do that is if they were not selling enough copies. And it would be down to bethesda to make the call for them to make the beta run smoothly without all features.

if they were gonna release one they'd done it by now, the games only 3 weeks out from release

A fair amount of games get release-day and post-release demoes.

And not only games which aren't selling well, either.

I'm hoping they do this, because (obviously assuming the game is good), it will draw a solid second wave of buyers after all of us who pre-order, many of whom the normal marketing and word-of-mouth won't sway as much as some hands-on time can.

Also, anyone else notice that before that Gamespot video, they got an ad for Brink? Because I did, and it was a nice touch - shows the marketing is finally starting to kick in.

Yeah, If they throw in a few commercials and promotions to gather more fan base then this game would be fully set.

@obliviondoll: I noticed a fair amount of coverage on websites and it makes me happy. I've seen it on Gamespot, Penny-Arcade, Gamefaqs, and some other big sites on the banner ads so I'm hoping gamers that haven't been following it will see a guy with a molotov cocktail and become a little interested.

As much as a before release demo would be appreciated, since the game is now finished and there is not one yet, it stands to believe that we will not be getting one. Still, the BFG event footage has me confident that Wedgewood and crew know what they have is good to go... unless the men in black with machine guns on skis attack them. (fingers crossed)

I hope so too. It would help people who are living under rocks find out about Brink after it comes out.

A beta this close to release? I don't think so. It would be like "Hey here's the beta!" then "Hey never mind the beta, here is the game!"

Off Topic: Gears 3 beta is pretty cool!

it comes out in like 25 days, a beta seems to much to ask, I like it how this is like the 30th post about a demo or beta its kinda funny annoying but funny.
