BRINK will be a killer app. :stroggtapir:\

It's multiplateform, 'killer appz' is, AFAIK, a term used for a soft/games only available on a specific hardware.

You can get apps on multiple platforms *facepalm* Best part of the interview

I would have to say the funniest, scariest, and most interesting moment from development so far was when I stumbled across Aubrey sneaking around the basement of our old office. He was brandishing a real AK-47 (he promises it was disabled), had taped a web camera to his forehead, and was pretending to prime a grenade with only his left hand while holding it directly in front of his face. It was a fairly alarming sight

Then it's not a killer appz any more.\

You're an idiot Another pointless discussion by AnthonyDa (tm)

No one said it wasn't. The debate is whether Brink is a killer app or not. [SIZE="1"][COLOR="DimGray"]Spoiler: It isn't. A killer app is used to describe a computer program that's pivotal for a specific system. Since Brink is multi-platform it's not really a killer app.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

That's what you get if interviews don't give anything substantial to disagree on.

I grasp the subject completely, the term was around before video games, Lotus 1-2-3 was the first truely killer app for me. So, cross platform gaming couldn't by your definition be a killer app ?

Don't you have weapon laws in the UK? An AK-47 is a pretty big gun in my opinion.

Since Brink will be available to virtually all platforms that realistically can run it, calling it a killer app would be a stretch. Lotus 1-2-3 was a killer application because it was available exclusively for the IBM PC, whereas Brink will be available to the PC and both console systems capable of running it. In layman's terms, the definition of a killer app is quite simple: there's a demand for system X, because it's the only one that runs software Y. Also, sorry for the tact in my last post; hectic day.

I'd be more worried about the grenade...\

gotta agree there btw, you can own demob guns in any size in UK

I just read Lotus and killer-app in the same sentence.. Sign of the Apocalypse #8!!!:eek:

only in context of marketing advantages for such "platform" because this "killer appz" existence. otherwise its not true.

How much do you want for the foam grenade? Is the "disabled AKM" on sale?
