SC2 looks offical!!!!!!!!

"Despite being hesitant about supporting the Xbox in the past, Namco has now officially announced four titles for the system. These titles include the next Ridge Racer, Soul Calibut 2, Dead to Rights, and an untitled action/adventure game. Further announcements are being made in Japan right now, so please check back for further updates."

>note from Ho3j: this is all late-breaking news from Japan so there are bound to be a few errors... IE: Last I heard DTR is exclusive to the Xbox for a period of time<

"Namco plans to bring the latest versions of two of its biggest franchises to Xbox: the popular racing series, ``RIDGE RACER LATEST Version,\'\' and the award-winning fighting game, ``SOUL CALIBUR 2.\'\' Two Namco titles are also under exclusive development for Xbox: ``Dead to Rights,\'\' a thrilling adventure about a cop framed for murder and facing execution who makes a daring escape and seeks revenge on those who killed his father and set him up, and a second, unnamed action-adventure title.

``At Namco, we are excited to work together with Microsoft on Xbox game development,\'\' said Masaya Nakamura, chairman and CEO of Namco. ``We initially will provide game titles that appeal to the avid video game consumer in the Xbox consumer space, and in the future we intend to provide games using the Xbox online game service.\'\'"

"At the Xbox press conference today in Japan, Atlus confirmed that it will bring its Megami Tensei franchise to the Xbox with the series\' first online installment. Tentatively titled "Shin Megami Tensei Online," the online RPG is scheduled for release sometime in 2002 and is an Xbox exclusive.

   Series producer Cozy Okada will return for Shin Megami Tensei Online. No other specific details were announced, save that the game will include voice communication features and will make use of the Xbox\'s built-in hard drive.

   Shin Megami Tensei III was previously announced for the PlayStation 2. There\'s been no word yet on whether this title will switch platforms, or indeed whether SMT III simply became Shin Megami Tensei Online."

MAN WHY DONT THEY RELEASE IT FOR PS2 ALREADY

Cause PS2 can not handle these games.

Stop being such an Xbox fanboy. Damn.

You\'re so unintelligent Ogodlything... You probably voted for Bush.

JP, shut up. See how expensive gas is? Imagine is tree-huging Al was out there.

I don\'t SEE anything thats looks as good as DOA3 on PS2, so you can say that PS2 CAN\'t do it, or that PS2 HASN\'t done it yet. he is an X-Box fanboy, but who cares, really?

I wasn\'t saying that the PS2 can\'t or can do these games at all.
Personally I don\'t believe that the best PS2 games can ever look as good as the best X-Box games.
But Ogodlything is acting retarded with such comments coz they are completely uncalled for.

Sick and tired of these lamers with no lives that hang on boards and IRC all day, spraying biased garbage....
