What system will you be getting Brink for?

(spazski) #1

Hopefully we can set aside console fanboy-ism in hopes of seeing how each system pans out in terms of players.

(Lequis) #2

Probably Xbox, although I would get it for PC if my computer was decent.

(3Suns) #3

I will be getting at least 1 copy and maybe as many as 4 for the 360.

Man, your friends must be hard to please!

I am firmly of the belief that you need a mouse and keyboard (PC) for FPS and RTS, and a joypad (console) for 3rd Person shooters and side scrollers.

Which is why I have a RumblePad 2 for my PC :slight_smile: Best of both worlds :wink:

I won’t buy anything, already have computer

i vote for PC
cuz if i had to launch lan-party, i used to use PC’s

p.s.
buy ?
what for ?
consumers with outdated PC’s can upgrade it seamlessly.
consoles owners already have consoles[but buy current, nearly-canceled-deprecated generations todays is …not smart move…]

At the moment I am undecided, my heart says PC but my head is starting to say PS3/Xbox360
too much emphasis on character customization, coop game-play, bling-bling, and RPG stuff =>Xbox/PS3
too much emphasis on mplay, skill and team tactics => PC

The only gaming system I own is a PC so thats my choice. Can’t stand the consoles just not fun at all for me.
I hope Brink is not just another game in the current trend of PC console ports.

PC definitely, and maybe also on my ps3 or xbox.

(LyndonL) #11

Two words if your torn between PC and Console: Dedicated Servers.

im more stick to “threating consumers more serious.”.
cuz whole “consoles” market is more reming me taliban training camp or Guantanamo NB, rather than Business.

(BioSnark) #13

Keep in mind that SD has, up till now, been solely a PC developer and these are their forums. A poll in this location and at this time (before any serious marketing) should not be expected to accurately reflect actual sales.

Sorry, what?

PC, just built my first computer a few weeks ago and really love PC gaming. Its much better than the Xbox I used to play…obviously

(signofzeta) #15

lol, and the lack of people who would vote for PS3. I’m getting mine on PC for sure, and one of the 2 consoles. Preferrably PS3 because I don’t have to pay to play online. But I’m cutting back on the habit of buying 2 of the same game for different systems.

(3Suns) #16

As far as I know, there will be dedicated servers for both PC and Console versions.

And Senethro, those extra copies will be for my three sons. Until I know more about the game, I simply cannot commit to getting a whole family set of it. I will be surprised, however, if the future unveil does not persuade us to pre-order four copies.

Speaking of which, at this point, there is no “Asia” version listed for Brink. I need the game to run on my Region 2 Xboxen, and if the “USA” copies are region free, I am set, otherwise, I need to get the “Asia” version.

I might buy the ps3 for it, Cause im TOTALLY fed up with paying for just online play on xbox live,
I have bought the game didnt i…?
Everything costs money: demo download?s only if you have gold membership “after a while silver”,
name changing 800 MS points, gamerpics “no customs allowed” 20 ms points… etc
no quiting my little tirade.

My PC is also very up too par, yet i like relaxed comfy tele entertainment.
So it might be/very likely the PS3.

(mortis) #18

Just built teh new system:

Intel i7-860, nominal clock speed 2.8GHz, 4 hyperthreaded cores (8 logical cores)
4GB of DDR3 @1600MHz
eVGA 9800+ PCIE 2.0 512MB of GDDR3
Western Digital 750GB SATA 3.0 Gbps
XP Pro 32bit Service Pack 3

From boot screen to fully loaded system tray, ready to work, 17 seconds. it’s smokin’ fast. I may add 64 bit dual boot Ubuntu, depending of the availability of a linux client for Brink.

i meant that guys, whose start/operate/maintain/try2improve “consoles”-related market, shoulld STOP threating consumers as hostages, as scum, as pieces of crap.
or society will retaliate whoooosh !!
sooner or later, one way or another. eventually.

(king_clueless) #20

PC for sure for me. I might even upgrade for it if need be. I’m running a 5850 in a OC rig sop should be fine. Maybe a new screen to soak it all up :slight_smile:
