A lot of x-box fans want GTA3, MGS2, FF, GT and other PS2 games. Why the hell doesn´t they get a PS2 instead? It´s cheaper and have better games.
I don´t want any x-box ports to the PS2.
Here in Sweden people buy the console with best games (the DC have sold tons here) and it is strange IMO to buy a console and then want an other consoles games.

Well,PS2 has a lot of games,sure...it\'s a 2 years old console...and right now it\'s the best console as regards quantity and variety of games...
But personally I won\'t buy MGS2 and VF4 for the PS2,I\'ll wait for the XBox versions...and I\'ve heard rumor about MGS3 for the XBox(don\'t flame me:p )
I\'ll get the exclusive titles for PS2,and the enhanced versions of the XBox plus the exclusive for the X...

My pot Shot at M$$$$$$$$ for today.

FFS by the time you get them games if indeed EVER, us PS2 owners will be playing MGS3 and VF5 or even 6
:laughing:

Buy both systems and enjoy the best of both worlds.

Uh, would you like to pay another $300 after spending it on a "lesser" (I use the term loosely) system? I\'m sure they\'re gonna be happy with the box in a while, but don\'t we all want to have the same games on every system?
I want Super Smash Brothers, but that\'s about it from the cube, not worth buying the cube. . . oh well.
-
My point is, instead of charting sales figures, go play some games. It\'s a lot more fun!

Who says we\'re not having fun? Some of us like debating/figure hunting.

I own both systems and enjoy them mostly for their exclusives.
There are a minimal amount of ports worth buying the Xbox for...why would they buy the system now to enjoy what may come out later or not at all?
Xbox has so much more going for it besides ports, surely you know this...

You\'ll be sorry to hear that MGSX is not MGS2.. Its either a updated version of MGS1 or a mixed version of MGS1 and 2.
2 is exclusive to PS2.
Oh and VF4 wont be coming to Xbox. SoA said so :)
Plus MGS3 is rumoured (good rumours) to be in development for PS2.
:fro:

They also said they\'ll keep everyone updated if a version is planned...leads me to believe it\'s not out of the question.

VF4 is not coming to Xbox.
You can wait, sure. But you may wait in vain.
VF4 is PS2 exclusive. Just like Shenmue, JSRF, GT2k2 is for Xbox.

Sega made it very clear that they want most of their games multi-console. Shenmue and JSRF ports are also rumored, have been for quite some time...
I don\'t have to wait, have both systems...:p

Watch this space...
Yes they have.
But right now they made it clear NO xbox version is planned.
We will see at E3 what happens.
Sega has said 50% of their games will be on PS2.
Im hoping they\'ll drop a bomb at E3 :)

I don\'t remember them saying this, but it would be nice if they bring most of their games to all systems.

SEGAs CEO said it recently.
PS2 gets 50%
Xbox and GC gets the rest, 25% each.

Where did you read it? I\'m a Sega whore, I\'m suprised I missed it...
If you can give me a link, that would be cool. Or if you can just tell me the site, I\'ll go digging for it...

I remember that a swedish site repoted it (well know, well respected)
It was reported on the 19th of Feb 2002.
And I think OPSM2 US had article about it.

If people thought like you, I\'m sure the DC would be duking it out right now with PS2.
Which probably means XBox and NGC would be DOA.
Not bouncing-boobs-DOA, perv...

Why wasn\'t something like that on IGN, I just went digging throught the last 5 months and couldn\'t find anything related to that.
Most interviews with Charles B. are reported on sites such as Gamerweb and IGN...
The closest I came to was 17 titles confirmed for PS2, 12 for Xbox, and 7 for GC...but that was way back.
I\'ll treat it as one of those silly little rumors...for now;)

That\'s fine...I\'m sure I\'ll come across it somewhere. Or maybe they\'ll say it again at E3.

I find it amazing how many fans Sega has now as opposed to when the DC was launched and during its short life. I have a feeling a lot of these closet Sega fans were once the same ones that where labeling the DC as a POS and Sega was washed up, not to mention saying they had nothing to offer the gaming world.
Anyway, Sega has always had great games and the DC was a very underrated system. I bought one 3 days after launch and still play it now and then.
As far as this topic goes I agree with Rikku, I have both systems and like the exclusives for each one.

I do want some of the same games that are on the Ps2 to come to the Xbox , but I don\'t want ports. I want them to be re-done for the Xbox to take advantage of it\'s power.

I heard that MGSX(MGS2X?) should be an enhanced version of MGS2...but no one knows that for sure...
Sure I\'ll get MGS2 if MGSX is a mixed version...

Let me first say that the x box is the most powerful console on the market but thhere software is lacking there pr people dont have a clue. the x box versions of ps 2 games will be direct port overs not using the x box power hmm sounds like vapor ware to me x box needs too make a game that drfines the system make me buy it not put out games that have been on ps 2 a year ago omnimusha lol.
they need to make a game that blows us a way and is fun to play microsoft is not a video game fender they have a lot to learn . microsoft get a clue make a game that can only be done on your monster system make it fun promote it well hell ps 2 commercials make you want to buy them so much are you listening bill or you to busy trying to buy the video game industry lol

Basically for me, if they are released a year or so later, for a port to be worthwhile they have to be MAJORLY updated.. completely different game practically for me to get it. Not just better graphics and a few more modes.. which is all these games will be getting (most likely ;))
but nothing that would inspire me to get an XBox for them when i can play them on my PS2 and enjoy them just as much :)
done.

But thats my point. If you want some of the games on the PS2 why don´t you get one? If you want them completely re-done you are dreaming.
The reason IMO that x-box only gets PS2 ports instead of completely re-done version is money. There is to few x-boxes out there to make any profit on the games.
A game like MGS2 would be suicide to re-program to use all x-box power. They can´t make any profit on the game.
Think about Oddworld, that game has been in develop for over 2,5 years. the game sold like crap. They lost tons of money.
If they had sticked with the PS2 the game would have been completed earlier and the game would have sold more.(still suck)
And when they said that the game can´t be done on PS2 I lost all interested in that company.
the point is: as long as the userbase on the x-box is so low the x-box will get PS2 ports. MONEY MONEY!!!

*yawn*
