XBox in 2003...

Perfect Stu · 11-24-2002, 10:47 AM

Expecting some big announcements at E3 2003, I think that next year will be huge for the XBox...basically, I bought XBox for 2003 (and future years)

Now, what games are we looking at?

Panzer Dragoon Orta
DOAXBV (I bet it will sell systems)
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Midtown Madness 3
Ninja Gaiden
Rainbow Six: Raven Shield
WWE Raw 2
Brute Force
Counter-Strike
StarCraft: Ghost
Halo 2

and then you have games that might be released in 2003:

Kameo: Elements of Power
Perfect Dark (Zero?)
Fable
B.C.
DOOM III
Deus Ex 2: Invisible War
Psychonauts
Soul Calibur 2
Star Wars: Galaxies
True Fantasy Live Online

:eek:

Fable= that amazing RPG game that everyone was anticipating, right?

I thought it would come out the end of this year? It was delayed?

No... a lot of people guessed it would come out at the end of this year. Big Blue Box has never given an official release date or a project one.

It will probably come out for the X-Box 2 if they don't hurry up.

BBB is now planning for a 4th Quarter 2003 release. They have not as yet released an official date though, but any longer than that would seem to be self defeating.

It's a damn good list, I wonder how Ps2 and GC's list look in comparsion to this....btw how much exclusives games are on that list Stu??

well, without presenting what ps2 has, no ones gonna know if it has any exclusives or not soo..

Null · 11-25-2002, 08:18 PM

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is on PC too.

WWE Raw 2 might be on pc........RAW came out on PC, no word yet on Raw 2

Halo 2 is exclusive yes, but depending on what they put in Halo for PC, it might not be AS exclusive. you know they arent going to make halo exactly the same on PC as it was for xbox. it will be HUGE online, and you gotta think if they came up with any really really good idea's while making halo2 for xbox. they'd put it in for PC.......... i mean, if they're only allowed to make one Halo game for PC (if thats all MS lets them, not sure) they might as well put everything in it they can. and they'll prolly support it online for quite a while with many many upgrades.... unless of course they're allowed to make a halo 2 also for pc

bobcat · 11-26-2002, 12:53 AM

Xbox looks to have a very promising lineup of games. As Fingersman said, I wonder how they compare to Ps2 and GC

I don't think that whether a game is also released on PC or not really affects a games popularity or sales for a console. Look at Morrowind. It was far inferior to its PC brother, but it still sold very well and in a genre that you wouldn't think would sell to console gamers.

The reasons for this are obvious.

XBox = $200
High End PC = $2,000 plus and thats low ball.

So I think the PC releationship is really a non-issue.

Null · 11-26-2002, 09:40 AM

no, the question that was comeing up was are they exclusive.. not anything to do with sales or how good they'll be.

and you can get a high end pc for a LOT cheaper then that man, if you build one yourself, they're much cheaper. mine ran me under 1000. but thats beside the point.

was just stating they not xbox only

If it's a FPS or one of those "PC Type Rpg's" then for me I'll get it on Pc.

And if ur high end pc is $2000 American, it must be some kind of main frame.

Umm they have already said it's coming to the PC but it will most likely be the same as the first game and take for ever to come out (lets face it a lot of the hype has gone on the PC version of halo now as it’s taken so god damn long). Oh and I have been told that the online beta for Halo2 will stat this summer.
