Apparently, Capcom's sequel-itis wasn't due to a lack of creativity, it had to do with banking on a sure thing. Everyone knows we are actually on the 14th or 15th installment of Street Fighter. Resident Evil has been around forever, and no mortal knows how many Mega Man's exist. Dead Rising and Lost Planet were rejected outright in the prototype stage.

Brink is out today on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC and we've got the launch trailer to prove it. If you've picked the game up on the PlayStation 3 you might be feeling a bit lonely, mostly because, the PlayStation Network is still down. Eurogamer asked Bethesda about the game's launch, to which they responded, there was no plans to delay the PS3 version.
