    Brink may have been freshly pushed back into Spring 2011, but the marketing folk for the title apparently haven't taken much of a break. At QuakeCon, several unusual (?) pre-order character skins were revealed, two of which, interestingly, have been pulled straight from the Fallout and Doom universes.

    At its presentation, developer Splash Damage unveiled the game's four different pre-order skin packs split between a variety of retailers: the Psycho pack, the Spec Ops pack, the Fallout pack, and the Doom pack. Each bit of content comes with its own hat, tattoo, tee shirt (or equipment), and gun (or gun skin).  
     
    Collectively, the packs all look rather rad...but there's two that take the cake, or I guess in this scenario, make me want to spend money well in advance. (Spoiler: it's the The Psycho and Fallout gear.) 


    No Caption Provided
     
    In the interest of brevity, here's the list:

    == TEASER ==The Psycho - Amazon and Direct2Drive
    • The "Grin Face" Mask
    • Tortured Soul Tatoo
    • Soda Can Silencer and Arktactical Silencer
    • Caesar Revolver

    Spec Ops - Steam And Wal-Mart
    • "Sloani" Face Mask
    • Dogtag Tattoo
    • Greeneye Scope
    • Hockler Machine Pistol

    Fallout Pack - Best Buy
    • Fallout Bandana and Vault-Tec Beanie Cap
    • Vault 101 Tattoo
    • FNV Vault Boy Tee and Vault 101 Tee
    • Vault 101 and FNV Vault Boy Carb-9 Skins

    Doom Pack - GameStop
    • Doom Bandana and UAC Beanie Cap
    • Hellspawn Tattoo
    • UAC Body Armor Tee and Screaming Soul Tee
    • UAC and "Cacodemo" Bulpdaun SMG Skins    
     
    Images of these taken straight from the panel can be seen in full over at G4. I'd imagine some in-game shots of the gear and accessories will come along at some point in the near future, and I'll be sure to get them up around the time they hit the 'net.
     
    But now that you've seen or at least read through the contents of each package, I've got to ask: you're all pre-ordering at Best Buy to get the Fallout pack, right? Or is the pull of the burlap sack mask too great?

    Not that I much care for dress up, but I always feel slightly annoyed when certain stores get certian pre order bonuses. Well I'll probly be getting my copy on Steam, anyone else?

    Announcing pre-order DLC for a game thats not released for another 6months is just getting silly.

    I'm all for pre-order bonuses. I know those high initial sales are important. However, splitting up pre-orders for different retailers forces customers to make a choice they don't want to make. Just roll them all into one pre-order pack available everywhere and make the customers happy rather than annoyed. That's not how you want to start things off.

    There is no bigger turnoff to buying a game than retailer-exclusive content.  If I wanted all this stuff legitimately, I'd have to buy the game four times.  Hey Bethesda, how about I buy the game zero times and you have your marketing department sit on my dick.

    Marketing and business people are going to further destroy gaming.. Now that gaming isn't for the nerds and geeks anymore, we get shitty console ports to PC and more ways to get milked for money... With that being said, I'm going to have to go with the Fallout pack :P

    Does anybody know how Brink works? Is it persistent like APB where, if I choose Cops; I earn nothing from the Amazon preorder?  
     
    Or is it just like, quick match > hey I'm on the COPS team, so I can use my Steam Preorder Stuff!

    Ok, you got me, Brink. I'm off to pre-order.  
    So, Who do I have to go with in Europe to get the Doom pack? Always wanted my own Hellspawn tattoo, so this sounds awesome!

    Remember when stuff like this was just you know, included in the game for free and not cut out and locked behind key codes.

    I'm just about done buying discs for PC games. If I get this it will be on Steam, if GB convinces me it's good I'll pre-order.

    That is defiantly my mistake, for some reason I thought it was coming out in 2010 in that case I will continue to follow this game.

    Interesting, I hadn't really given Brink all that much of a look at all since it's announcement, but now i'm starting to look into it more and more, I may just have to give this one a go right after Dead Rising 2.

    Retail specific DLC, please make it stop.  I wonder what the percentage of people who actually go to a specific retailer to get their DLC and if it effects sales in any way.

    This kind of preorder absolutly sucks for anyone  who cant  go to Gamestop or Bestbuy as they don't have the franchise here in the UK. I guess it just means if you want any of the preoder stuff  we have to wait until it's DLC.

    I think you chose a faction, but you can change at any point? Not entirely sure on the specifics, but I know each gives a different "perspective" and they said you can experience both.

    Does. Anybody else think that this preorder stuff is early? Considering that it doesn't come out until spring, there's not a lot of gameplay footage, its mechanics aren't clear and its not even available for preorder at most stores?
