No Flopping

yeah, i\'d be bored to death then

The titles that may have some potential in pulling Xbox out of its\' grave are exclusive and/or big name titles...

Project Ego, Enclave, Duality, Strident, Panzer Dragoon, Halo 2, Unreal Championship, Doom 3, Quake IV, Brute Force, Soul Calibur 2, Sega GT, Dino Crisis 3...among some others.

All the above are reasons I bought one and why I won\'t regret the purchase if it does in fact go under...

Project Ego, Enclave, Duality, Strident, Panzer Dragoon, Halo 2, Unreal Championship, Doom 3, Quake IV, Brute Force, Soul Calibur 2, Sega GT, Dino Crisis 3...among some others.

Why is it when I look at this list, all I think of is PC

perhaps its cause thats what most of the titles are with the exception of a few sega games, which who knows may be canceled by the time they come to light, and Soul Caliber 2 which is mulitplatform, and the Only non-sega exclusive japaneese game.. Dino Crisis 3 which nobody has heard of in months.

and, from what I just read..
if you expect Panzer Dragoon to help the japaneese situation.. your dead wrong.

The last game in the series had horrible sales in japan..
sales in the USA were not much better, its a cult game

xbox hasn\'t got that many great games, take away Halo and see what you are left with

and even Halo is overated IMO

I wonder what M$ pulls out of their ass at e3, I hope they do better than last year

That\'s you bias opinion. I happen to love Doa3,NFL Fever, Mad Dash racing, Project gotham, and JSRF just to name some titles.

Umm a console and a pc are two different things. Every gamer doesn\'t like pc games. And most pc games look like crap compared to console games. Just because a game is a fps you automaticly have to say pc?

That\'s stupid. So a console can\'t have a fps or it\'s pc\'ish. Man you freaking ppl kill me.

You tottally missed my point,
I say PC beacuse the games is/will be ON THE PC.. how hard is that to understand.. lol

So and whats your point? Not everyone plays pc games. I like fps and like them on consoles. There are many other gamers out there that like fps on console. I don\'t care if it\'s on pc or not. That\'s why I bought a console to play games I like on a console.

I would supose thats why every other gamer buys a console.

But you see Q most people in the world own a PC and with most games on the X-Box coming or already on the the PC whats the point buying an (IMO) overpriced system when you already own a PC?

Yes but most ppl aren\'t into pc games like they are into console games. Madden is on ps2 and it\'s on pc so what your not going to buy a ps2 because madden will be on pc? Ppl buy a console to play games they like on a console fps or not.

My view: The Xbox\'s PC-esque nature is something of a con for me.

If I had the money, I\'d go with the PS2 as a brother to my GCN due to my already owning a PC.

That\'s just the way it is for me. The Xbox has great exclusives and console-esque games, but with so many PC developers working on future releases.. I can\'t help but think that buying Xbox would be like buying another PC.

Chrono, I always knew you as a sensible guy, so what\'s up with all this senseless bashing of XBox?

Panzer Dragoon RPG sold pretty well for being on Saturn in Japan, the other two in the series racked up a half a million each. In America, the first two did as well as they could.

XBox has great games coming, no doubt about it. People always say "Take away Halo and what do you got?"

What about GC with SSBM (blech.)

or PS2 and GTA3 (and recently VF4, yay!)? not much. (IMO)


the big titles for this year I can see will be:

Dino Crisis 3, Panzer Dragoon O, Crazy Taxi 3, Shenmue II, Project Ego, Morrowind, Sega GT 2002, MoH AA, PSO (if it makes it out this year), and Soul Calibur 2.

I will be willing to bet that SC2 does better on XBox than it will on GC, but not PS2. People who believe MS and it\'s third parties have thrown out all they have got in the first 4 months of the year are ridiculous. There is plenty coming, along with the new controller for the whiners (or wieners ) like mm.

cloud345, if you can prove that even half of the games on or coming to XBox are already on or coming out for PC, than I will leave forever. Your comment is completely without base.

PS2 has Deus Ex, NOLF (coming soon), Baldurs Gate, Everquest (coming), Commandos 2 (coming), etc.


and don\'t be stupid and name crap like Madden, THPS3, etc. that are on other consoles, too.

Besides Doom or Quake...which of the titles I mentioned have been announced for PC?

And I didn\'t argue whether they were exclusive or not...being that the Xbox is getting some big name titles is important.

And personally, I\'d play the console version over PC any day...PC gaming, bah!!

panzer dragoon saga was only a limited release in the US
50,000 units


thats why the game goes for $200+ in mint condition on ebay

its considered the holy grail of console gaming
