Xbox 360 or PC

Post » Sun Nov 21, 2010 5:31 pm

Hi Bethesda forum, this is my first time on your forums, I cant wait for brink to come out and i just bought a new laptop. its a m11x with i7 and 8 gb ram with the NVIDIA 1gb vid card. i have been playing FPS'S since Halo 1 on the xbox/ xbox 360, and i love the controls/joysticks on the 360 controller. The only competitive FPS ive played on the PC is TF2 (which i love). My issue is that im not sure wether or not i should get Brink for PC or for the Xbox. Xbox i get a larger screen, the familiar controller, etc. What im not sure about is if Brink will run smoother on my xbox or my laptop. or if there will be a major population difference between the live or PC communities for brink. Im sure I could get used to mouse, do you guys find one or the other more accurate or better for FPS's? Any input on either would be great. Thanks :D

Get it for what ever system that your friends are getting it for.


And if you don't have friends.... :confused: But there are many of us that will be glad to play.

If keyboard and mouse are not your forte then go with the Xbox version, Otherwise get the PC version for extra tweak in GFX and options you're most likely will not see on the console versions.

whatever you think is best for you but i have played of pc since counter strike 1.6 and counter strike source but i have move from pc to xbox. pc you can meet people easier just keep goiong to the same server but xbox is going to randomly put with people. it all up to you

Just so you know, you can buy an adapter to use the 360 controller on a PC. But in all reality Keyboard+Mouse > Controller for almost every shooter ever.
