Brink has been in and out of the media for quite some time. I don't think people really know what to make of it. The developers' diary reveals a game that wants to be a little bit of everything. Splash Damage refers to it as a genre bending title and I can see why. Brink has a little bit of Mirror's Edge, it has some Team Fortress 2, and it definitely has some SOCOM elements to it as well. The developers say it breaks apart the barrier between a single player game and a multiplayer one, but what does that mean exactly?
Hyperbole aside. Brink appears to be a squad based shooter with a cool and unique art style that's almost a love child between Borderlands and Team Fortress 2. I like it, I dig the way it looks, but with the new Call of Duty map pack, will we have time to get invested? Brink definitely offers more complexity then what you find in other FPSes. It's a class based shooter that can become dangerously addictive. Everything you play under

Postings listed openings for a Graphics Architect position working with Xbox hardware, hoping for someone to lead a team that would be responsible for defining and delivering next generation console architectures from conception through implementation.

Gears of War 3
Color is breaking through in the next Gears of War. The Gears of War series has been known for it's dull, but appropriate color schemes. Dark muddy grays and browns with the red of blood being the only color that truly ever stands out. Screenshots have been coming out steadily for awhile and will continue to do so until the mid-April release of the Gears of War 3 Beta when we will all have an opportunity to play the game ourselves.
While the main focus of the game and the gameplay itself will probably be more of the same. If it's not broken, what is there for Epic to fix? It appears as though the story may take a positive turn for a happy ending. The screen shots aren't echoing the same sense of claustrophobia
