Brink set to release on September 7?

dohfOs · 27th Feb 2010, 02:13

seems like it!

as quoted from http://brink.chefenco.com/brink-game...e-september-7/

Why would we think that you may wonder. Well, GameStop just launched a Brink sweepstakes, where one lucky winner (U.S. residents only) will receive a home theatre overhaul including; A 55″ LED TV, 5.1 Surround Sound Home Entertainment System and the choice of a PlayStation3® or Xbox 360@ console. This is officially backed up by Bethesda Softworks and Splash Damage which means this is a real deal. Again, why? Look at the dates, both on the official sweepstakes ad it clearly says “available 9.7.2010″ as in September 7 2010.

Well, some might say this may just be a huge mistake and yes, it could be. But then again, knowing how extremely careful especially Bethesda Softworks are with actually giving clearance I highly doubt it. The official Bethesda Softworks blog, the Splash Damage twitter and the official Brink twitter all link to the GameStop ad, again, it looks very likely that this IS the actual release date set for Brink.

September 7, 2010. We’re coming for you!

YA GOT IT... naw I'm sorry no!

Is strange but then who ever expects a game store to stick to its dates. Till it's gold I'm cautious over any date.

I entered the sweepstake though, 1st prize looks nice, could do with a new TV.

spazski · 27th Feb 2010, 03:39

more than 6 months, way too long.

3Suns · 27th Feb 2010, 03:40

That would be a great time to release the game, before the wave of autumn triple A releases hit.

And as long as it doesn't come out of the oven half-baked, the sooner the better!

Idk about you guys, but I've known this for 14 billion years. I mean It has been in my signature since the dawn of time, but you know...

Should be intense.

Joe999 · 27th Feb 2010, 05:32

that's a gamestop ad, nothing more. but a release date in that time frame would make sense, given the next call of duty and crysis 2 will be released in oct/nov.

and if it's really september, i'd say it's about time to gief beta. otherwise i fear our annoyance (for which i'm totally prepared) wouldn't have much of an effect ... after all, what's a beta good for if you can't annoy the devs beyond bearing

SockDog · 27th Feb 2010, 06:13

I for one miss jRAD's wraith in the forums so yes I'll be all for some Beta whine.

H0RSE · 27th Feb 2010, 07:31

I don't care when it releases, even if it gets pushed again. As long as it's as polished as can be when they release it.

and why is it a Brink contest? You don't even win a copy of the game as a prize, lol.

Why would I want a chance to win a 60$ game if I can get a chance to win a probably 4000$ TV instead?

But meh it's US only.

For what a date on a silly competition poster is worth...

thing is mate. bethesda softworks tend to be extremely careful with their clearance on things (trust me, their legal department is on to me! haha.. or well..) and for bethesda announcing this on their webpage (adding the splash and official brink twitters) without first demanding that gamestop change their sweepstakes ad that has the date makes me believe that this is more then just another date on a "silly competition poster"

still, could be wrong. but i chose to not believe i am.

king_clueless · 27th Feb 2010, 10:55

hoping it just release with little or no problems tbh.

maybe there will be a open beta release for a couple of weeks to help iron out any probs like BF:BC2 did. everyone is buzzing about that game just playing the taster and I don't think it'll be az amazing as Brink.

can't wait for this title, looks amazing

AnthonyDa · 27th Feb 2010, 11:12

Any games having a date of release at a precise day months before release hits store unfinished, let's hope it will be pushed back again

Chance. · 27th Feb 2010, 11:16

Push it back pls, at this date, i have 3 months to go to have a PC where i can play

Lots of websites simply make up release dates as it attracts more buyer. This isn´t a Bethesda competition .
