total money earned/prizes/free gifts playing console competitively. I guarantee it.
You know that the only reason any of that is on the console is pure amount of players playing on consoles compared to PC. And I don't see how is price money related to it being a good competitive platform.
It's like COD, a rehashed garbage/full of bugs/booring gameplay that cost 4mil to make, and they invest 100millions in promoting it and that's why it is the most successful shooter out there even though it's garbage. Brink will not survive long as soon as battlefield 3 and cod:mw3 comes out brink will be dead 95% sure.
"An online shooter needs variety, depth, and addictiveness to succeed over the long term. Brink might find a niche with some hardcoe fans, but it isn’t for everyone. I'd love to see more of the parkour gameplay, but one mechanic isn't enough to carry an entire game. Brink has heart, but the overall package is lacking."
I wish Brink all the best, but I don't see it succeeding unless they do some major changes and we all know that major changes in the game industry don't happen
