Is Brink Delayed Til August?


(Wheelchairman) #1

hey guys just wondering so dont flame. i was talking about brink with friends and how excited i was and couldnt wait til may and they said that it was pushed back again to late summer. is this true?

i personally havent done any research and havent seen any new threads about it, but they say its on ign and gamespot and the release date changed on gamestop.

can someone inform me and if you know why?

Release is May 17 for North America, May 20 for Europe. It hasn’t been delayed since it received an actual release date.

if its delayed its FAIL.
cuz too late to deploy it in both Summer or Fall in 2011. TOO MUCH projects will out this time.
whatver “readiness” state was had Subj in initial release date.
and about delaying even further, is even more worthless, mean cost of that.

It is not delayed. No where says anything remotely of the sort that I can see.

I’m pretty sure in a lot of the PAX East videos they were still consistently saying May 17th/20th; doubtful it’ll change with how often they’re repeating the release date.

I think we get it.

If not, the game is really releasing May 17th and 20th, I swear !

I don’t think they can risk delaying it. It was already delayed once IIRC. Delay it again and you risk people losing interest, and then facing the might titan that is Battlefield 3.

Yeah, I saw the press release on the DNF delay today. Talk about Groundhog Day. Less shooter competition in Brink’s launch window though, which is a good thing. :smiley:

LOL This is actually great news for SD/Bethesda. Going up against L.A. Noire is a problem, but Noire is for all practical purposes a single player game (does it even have MP?). And Gears 3 was moved a while back. This is turning out to be an incredible window for the game.

Just know this, the Internet is going to FLOOD with L.A. Noire videos, and if they are even half as impressive as RDR videos, people will be seduced and horribly distracted. As I posted in another thread, if SD doesn’t have any more videos to show, just start releasing the tutorial videos.

Go, Brink!

Can this thread get a subject name change? Its title gives me anxiety and I keep seeing it get bumped.

Kudos to Gearbox for perhaps the best-delivered delay notice ever.

That proofs the interest in BRINK is bigger than in FEAR 3. But if for example FEAR 3 gets a higher rating in reviews than BRINK it could still cost BRINK sales.
