that remind me....? who think xbox360 games like Perfect Dark Zero, PGR 2006,Call of Duty 2, and other launch titles will revolutionize the gaming industry and be highest selling games ever?

Keep in mind, these titles isn't cheap. Retail price is $59,99 and from asking a gampstop employee last weekend, he say that the price for all next gen games.

What launch titles ever did "revolutionize gaming." They are only launch titles, their point is to just garner interest in the system by showing off its capabilities.

At least half of xbox360 titles would be on PC or PS3.. (Call Of Duty 2, Morrowind: Oblivion, Quake 4.. just to name a few will be on PC).

Can't wait to get one of those title!

Revolution FTW. And god the controller looks damn nice. Don't flame it because it looks weird. Maybe it won't work out well but maybe it will. All gaming consoles these days have the same controller. I'm up for something new in console gaming and maybe it will be minigames but it sure looks like it would be damn fun to play with like 4 of my friends all going at it

i reckon the revolution should bring bak all the snes rpg games and adventure games that were so popular back in the days and make em 3d then they will probably do really good. like bring bak all the ff games on nes and snrs and make em 3d and chronotrigger and donkey kong country 1,2,3, SUPER mARIO KART has to be in it coz if its not ill be disappointed soooooo much. thats like thee ultimate fun racing game for nintendo.

TheEPIC · Oct 22, 2005, 01:04 AM // 01:04

Revolution is gonna be dope cuz you can download all those great old games. No need to make 'em 3D, leave them in their 2d glory.

Gustav Gloomp · Oct 22, 2005, 01:06 AM // 01:06

oh i didnt know that you'll be able to download em. thats kool i can finally stop repairing my old snes

yep. and for free, if im not mistaking. like i said, this would be the main selling point for the console, imo

nimloth32 · Oct 22, 2005, 10:11 AM // 10:11

i going to support any platform that Metal Gear Solid 4 supported..=)

Gustav Gloomp · Oct 22, 2005, 10:13 AM // 10:13

well since the revolution can download the old snes games im gonna buy it and im gonna get a ps3. the 360 is just like a pc and most of the games come out on the other consoles and on the pc so i think its a waste of money.

Why don't ya just say the pc requires people to know a little more than press 'x' to set your timezone.

LOL!

Do you get BSODs (Blue Screen of Death) of Xbox?

Yes, actually I have. It just wasn't blue, but it was pretty much the same idea

ExplosiveBadger · Oct 22, 2005, 10:09 PM // 22:09

I'll say it again. Consoles are for say 'hardcore' gaming. More developers back consoles then PCs. While PCs are way more versatile with gaming, PCs will never change. It's the same crap year after year only prettier. Gaming you get perepherals(sp

) more immersion and just gaming.

example: PCs have been the same since the 90s. Sure they're more powerful but it's still a keyboard and mouse. Consoles are constantly changing design, playability, innovation, and theres a huge list I can go on and on.

And The Epic, no matter how biased you are there is no BSOD on the Xbox. The PS2 has RSOD(Red Screen of Deat) but this only happens when something really weird happned.

Omega_2005 · Oct 22, 2005, 10:11 PM // 22:11

I have had the Black screen of death in KOTOR II on the XBOX, so it is possible that a good game can crash

ExplosiveBadger · Oct 22, 2005, 10:12 PM // 22:12

Black screens happen everywhere. It's called freezing. Happned way back when on the NES, happens to everyone.

conker · Oct 23, 2005, 06:27 AM // 06:27

PS2 gets way more freezes then xbox, like i said WAY earlier, ive had only 2 xboxes and like 4 ps2s..(had to buy new ones due to keep freezing(good thing i had warranties

))

Gustav Gloomp · Oct 23, 2005, 06:37 AM // 06:37

i had white screen of death on my nes heaps of times and black screen of death on my snes. ps2 never crashed for me at all.

Rayea · Oct 23, 2005, 05:59 PM // 17:59

i had a blue screen of death from windows 2k on my gamecube, i kid you not....
i was just reaching for my pad of paper and a pen when the screen flashed, the game came back up and the girl said..."this.....cant...be...happening!"

i was playing eternal darkness, though

ah, sorry to bust the buble, but you will have to pay *some* cash to dl old games on the Rev.
some are to come as freebies, like the way they added the occarina of time/master quest cd to the windwaker game package
others are maybe fre but i doubt if any of the decent RPG stuff like Chrono trigger or secret of mana games (sighs)

they might do a deal where you buy a scratchcard and input number to let you dl a sertain amount of games, might even make special versions that let you get specific type, like a sport card or a FPS ect card.

still....let those that wnat/need the 360 buy it now, i will wait till its had a while round the block, made sure its not doing some of the stuff that the first versions of the xbox original did (i hear tales of hard drives that cleaned themselves so well, they wiped the OS, and of components swelling so much that buildings were only visible wne you knocked on their doors lol)
that way, i get the better deal, so long a i make sure the machines not as old as the first editions
