An Updated Team Fortress-Style hit by Bethesda

Brink is essentially an updated form of Team Fortress by the iconic developer Bethesda. Some people tend to base a game solely on the campaign and AI. The campaign is very easy. This is actually a benefit, as the campaign in Brink was designed to help you get used to the system. It was primarily designed in order to give the player enough XP and level-ups before entering multi-player.
Multiplayer, on the other hand, is very challenging. You are up against other players which react faster, push for objectives more, and are willing to win. This is where teamwork comes in hand, having to utilize every class in order to complete your objective, victory over the other team.
The fully customizable weapon system is a very nice attachment in this game. Add certain attachments to guns to improve accuracy, reload speed, aiming, etc. The fully customizable appearance system adds even more customization to your character.
If you are a fan of Team Fortress 2, challenging team play, objective based games, and a very fun game, Brink is a great game to buy.
What's great about it: Competitive team-based game play, great graphics, great customization

Crysis 2, by far has the best graphics of any game to date. It is a cross between Halo and Call of Duty. The campaign is great, but the game shines in multiplayer with its unlock system, team based gameplay, and insane graphics.
If you want another fps that you will play over and over again, this is the game for you.
What's great about it: Graphics, Multiplayer, Great campaign
What's not so great: Absolutely Nothing ... Literally
