Me to

Xbox games looking great, espically looking forward to Fable, i've been following it for well over a year now.

 

[sheepsteak]

From stuff I've seen I don't think SW:KOTOR will be out this month. More like July in the US and August here

What are you going to buy? I still can't decide whether to go for Brute Force or not and I'm thinking of getting Midtown Madness 3 over Midnight Club 2.

The only good games that appear on that list will be on other formats.

Yet more reasons to ignore the shitbox, woo.

 

[Ono]

Halo 2 isn't out until 2004.

Dunno where you got the info from.

Midnight Club 2 is a dreadful game (on PS2 anyway).

Brute Force is very average IMHO.

Soul Calibur 2 is already out on all formats.

SoF2?!? - the PC version was cack so I can't understand why peeps get so excited about it.

Most of the other FPS stuff will be better on PC.

 

[nath]

Well Wazz, that arguement will always be valid because it's a MS system and the games will very often come out on the pc.

Splinter Cell is better on the XBox though, and I don't doubt that SC 2 will be too.

 

[bigsir]

I'm looking forward to Halo 2, Fable, PGR 2, DX 2, probably in that order

I'm not so sure about wether the FPS's would be better on a PC, sure it has obvious advantages but I'm through constantly upgrading and the xbox's 'shovelhands' controller isn't too shabby for them.

 

[nath]

FPS's, by and large just *are* better on the pc. Xbox is the best console for them though, they work very well on it. Halo is a bag of arse after the first few levels. Halo 2, I fear, will be much the same.

 

[bigsir]

I thought Halo was fantastic, but I don't think any amount of discussion is going to change either of our views

I'm sure that FPS's are better on a PC if everything's sorted and of course you have access to the various mods.

I just like the ease of use of a console (i.e switch it on ) and sprawling out on a monster sized beanbag watching the action on a big TV. It's all personal preference

 

[nath]

Granted, the beanbag factor is a fairly major part of the fun of consoles.

In Bodhi's absence someone should call Korny a fucktard !

Yeah me too...

Wij, bite me

Mmm, tastes lemony !

Eat mah cheese biatch

 

[Nos-]

I reckon Halo 2 will be pretty damn good, Halo is just a mindless shooter which works well in co-op.

If Bungie can improve on the formula then , basically

I could use the same argument the other way round really, no point gettin the gaystation coz all the games will be on my xbox.

And they will also look and sound better as well.

 

[plightstar]

Espically if u got RGB Scart put into your Widescreen TV and Connect the Xbox up to to a 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround System like the one in my room.

 

[iamtheone]

RGB SCART - icky poo. Wanna get your self a HDTV pack with Component Video Ouput, thats when Halo etc really looks impressive, even makes Colin McRae Rally look less blocky.

 

[plightstar]

Me couldn't afford HDTV otherwise I would get the HDTV pack
