About the reviews.

About people saying it's biased, how? I've read all and I can't see it. I know the reviews are [censored] and the game is still gonna be sweet but, I don't see anything biased about their reviews. Can you guys help me out?

I think that Brink is basically a niche game. What some people like, others don't. Keep in mind all reviews are personal, no matter how "un-biased" or "biased" you are.

The gamesradar review seemed pretty good, but that's about the only one that really seems to get what Brink really is.

When people say reviews are biased, hey usually mean the reviewer didn't "get" it.
Compare it to a film reviewer, one who loves romantic comedies isn't suited to reviewing a horror film.

In this specific case, if a reviewer mentions CoD in the first few lines, it's quite obvious they didn't "get" Brink.
Even worse are reviews that don't even mention SMART or the 0-day patch.

And ultimately, reviewers reviewing what's in essence a multiplayer-game based on their gameplay experience with bots are rather foolish. Can you imagine a TF2 with just bots? It's dreadful.
