(irvine05) #1

Hello

I’ve only just noticed the fact that splash damage is a british company but yet their releasing brink earlier in the USA?? I dont know why they are doing this as like i said SD is british.

Just fort id tell all you British people out there who are getting brink :slight_smile:

Because games release on Tuesday in NA, and Friday in EU.

so america gets all the bugs and we get a copy with some of the bugs fixed

i no when theyt release but why does america get it first if SD is a british company? Shouldnt that mean Britian should get the release first? :slight_smile:

Bethesda is a US company

(Mustkunstn1k) #6

Because SD isn’t the one who releases the game.

O i didnt no bethesda is a US company sorry for wasting your times guys :frowning:

Even if Bethesda weren’t the publisher, it’s not required that a company release the game earlier in their native land.

They do what makes the best fiscal sense, and keep with current trends, like the above mentioned release dates of Tuesday for NA and Friday for EU.

The whole two release dates thing is bollocks anyway
Just have one release date for everyone

And yes, I’d still hold this opinion if it was us getting the earlier date

Meh, worldwide release dates are better imo.

Of course they would be. It’s nothing to do with logistical distribution either: the files will all be on Steam well before.

Europe gets a chance to have a review and still buy on day 1 :smiley:

Except for all of the hard copies that have to be shipped, including all of the console copies, which makes up the majority.

Speaking of which
I’m expecting our friendly NA forumers to give us some footage to pore over on Wednesday and Thursday

Yea I have a HD PVR hooked into my PS3. I’ll try and upload a few clips before passing out from sleep deprivation on release night. No time/patience to edit the footage at that point, so I for one will just have little snip-its of gameplay and customization that I’ll put up a link to on here.

Don’t hold me to this because I may forget but i’ll do my best to get some footage to peek at while everyone in EU is still waiting =/

p.s. : I know that SD forums is mainly PC and you would like to see PC footage but I only work with what I have :frowning:

I’ll be looking out in the hope of this happening, and I’m on PS3, so thanks for choosing the right platform for me!
