This has got to be a joke or a theory, since Nintendo owns the PD franchise (I think).

[Neo]

The article is nothing more than hyped up speculation.

It's a very misleading headline.

[Shadow_Link]

I would only believe it when it came from the horses mouth... Oh, and wait, they haven't said anything :rolleyes:.

Just wait and see how things turn out, all this speculation is pretty annoying :D.

[gekko]

It's uhh... fake. Bad Photoshop skills.

Even if it is a real pic, it is very reminiscent of a tabloid article.

Hmm @ first I had difficulty understanding this concept myself.........but after months of study, my conclusion is:-

Xbox Magazine is a Magazine for Ps2 :unsure:

I'm still not sure, maybe it's a magazine for Xbox :confused:

:p

Ha... that's really funny there bobcat.

But went I mean is that I do not know of an Xbox Magazine. There's Xbox Nation (whatever) and Official Xbox Magazine, but no XBM. I'm guessing it may be a European magazine, do you know Angrist?

[gekko]

XBM is from the maker of EGM mesa thinks. Kinda like that DC mag they had. Look in the little ads in EGM for like Pocket Games and stuff.

I thought that was Xbox Nation... the independent magazine or whatever. I'll go look.

[Angrist]

I'm pretty sure it's an European magazine. I assume the editors of Cube-Europe saw the magazine in the stores, and they live in Holland, so... :)
Weird that they didn't look into the mag to see what it's about! How did they scan it? :confused: :unsure:

[gekko]

It's not a real magazine. Someone scanned it, then added that to it digitally from what I can tell.

Why would someone go through all that trouble to make a fake magazine and just get one little news article? That seems quite odd to me.

[Professor S]

I just saw the same cover pic with Metroid instead of Perfect Dark... don't believe everything you read.

He meant do you place 'a' or 'an' in front of the word European I believe.

[quiet mike]

It could be the XBM = Xbox Bull**** Magazine ;)

Anyways, I'm not shure if Nintendo holds the Rights to Perfect Dark, so it might actually get on Xbox, unless Nintendo already did or will make a move to clean out RARE of any franchise before they go multiplatform. So For now it's all rumor, but don't make it imposible.

Please explain to me how you can tell... Because it looks pretty seamless to me :unsure:

[DeathsHand]

Well this doesn't have to do with Xbox, but in the latest PSM, they posted a little story about how they heard from a credible source that Rare has had a game in development for PS2 for about 3 months now... or something... and PD is one of the possible titles... and apparently, to them, it's a very credible source, because they even listed Rare on PS2 as a "Hit" in their "Hits and misses" section, methinks... without even mentioning that it's not 100% confirmed yet... Or maybe they're just trying to get people's hopes up... :p But I don't think PSM normally posts rumors as news unless they're almost 100% sure of it... cuz they have a rumors section too, y'know...

So if it's true and Rare is developing for PS2, then they could be developing for Xbox as well, and if Nintendo doesn't own the rights to the PD series, then it could show up on Xbox too wether this little Xbox magazine thing is fake or not :D

Yeah, it looks like a fairly real magazine to me also. But you never do know...

DeathsHand, I think if Rare were to develop a game for Playstation 2, then they would also be developing a game for Xbox, or the other way around. But for some reason I think the Xbox has a better chance of getting a Rare game for some odd reason, I'm not exactly sure why. Perfect Dark would go good on both the Xbox and Playstation 2 consoles though. What other games does Rare own themselves without Nintendo?

[Drunk Hobbit]

"a"

[Jonbo298]

Jeez, is it just me or does it seem like Nintendo is getting picked on a ton these days!? First the Rare non-exclusive anymore, now this steaming pile of fakery? What's next? Nintendo to file for bankruptcy?

Thanks for the link, but the website seems to be quite outdated. Also I've learned that the magazine is available in the United Kingdom... so it is a real magazine after all.

Ya, clearly explained by someone. It is bad Photoshop skills, the sad part is, it's real.

But ya, it could've easily been fake, I got one with Metroid on it if you really care.

It's been confirmed by many people that that IS the cover, but the story inside is just the rumor. But fine, don't take my word for it, won't change my life.

But you don't think it's confirmed and we should all believe you, because your new and has post crammed like crazy for a day? Ya, that'll do a lot of good... really...

The title is fooling you, understand? The cover says "PD on Xbox" to get you to buy the magazine. Once opened, the magazine says "Rumors say Rare might be going multiplatform. So in the future, you might see PD on Xbox. We'll have to wait and see..."

And leatherface is an old member, don't worry about it.

Everyone here just seems to rip on me for making too many posts in my first day here. Trust me, I won’t ever make 80 posts in one day again.

Giving the new guy a hard time...I guess I understand. :unsure:

[Professor S]

Biohazard, people aren't ragging on you because you are simply new, or even because you post crammed, which is a big no no.

They are giving you a hard time because you are new, post crammed AND you basically accused some people who have been here for a very long time of blatantly lying about the magazine cover.

Great way to introduce yourself to the forums:rolleyes:

Next time you should get to know the members a little better before you question their integrity.

When I first got here ages ago I made a topic (like many other people) introducing myself. I got welcomed that way.

Did you make a topic like that? If so I must have missed it, if not, now might be a good time.
