Original great games? Like what? Pwees tell me. The games you listed....are they not sequels? Yes? Oh....man, I guess you won\'t be getting those games.


And didn\'t I say Japanese developers keep making sequel after sequel?

That and Halo are the only good games worth buying on Xbox. No wonder they both sold well.


Typical fanyboy statement, but it\'s usually Halo is the only game worth getting.  I guess you haven\'t played PGR, Munch, Amped, Rallisport Challenge, JSRF, Bloodwake, GunValkyrie, or UFC: Tapout.  All of them are very good and are "Only on Xbox", but I guess that right there probably makes them bad to you, right?  Then there are the crossplatform games that are better on Xbox, but again they aren\'t worth buying just because they are on Xbox.

What about Malice? Even if it wasn\'t a exclusive, it was never intended to go to PS2 and was hyped as THE Xbox game to put any other to shame. And now it\'s in development for PS2... go figure why.


Because MS didn\'t want to fork over the dough to make it exclusive.  I still don\'t see these exclusives they are losing like there is no tomorrow.  Two games that were never branded exclusive in the first place isn\'t much.

do you really think Sega are happy when they release a game in Japan and it sells only 9000 copies in its first week..? you think they jump for joy and go "THANK GOD AMERICA IS SUCH A HUGE MARKET"... seeing as there are only.. what? 1.5 million XBox\'s in america

Sega = King of bad business decisions

and im sure Tecmo are also sitting back going "whoo, our game sold over a million copies" while hideo kojima sits back and says "wow, 1.8 million in our first week in USA, and lots lots more worldwide.. good thing i released it on a cosole that has a 30 million user base, not 2 million"


It really is funny how idiotic these arguments are, Xbox has been out 7 months and you act like it should have the same userbase as PS2.  I guess a year and a half ago the developers only should have developed games for DC because it had a larger userbase compared to PS2.

oh and inteq, want more evidence of my BS?

Ouch. That must hurt, and it\'s not by a Japanese developer, it from EA. Go figure...



Where does it say the Xbox exclusives aren\'t exclusive anymore?  Plus that is from before the price cut, I doubt they\'d have the same thing to say now.  Xbox is already getting about every EA game plus the exclusives like Battlefied 1942 and Buffy.

You\'re forgeting one important thing here: Xbox IS NOT selling well. If they had sales that at least would be outselling PS2 at a decent rate, then developers would have no reason to rethink their strageties. The way Xbox is being outsold, and at the rate it\'s still being outsold in Japan after the price drop, doesn\'t make the future look to bright and justifies why developers are bringing their games onto the more successful console(s).

7 Months.. yes.. how many did they sell? And now, see how many PS2 sold in that same time. LOL.

I don\'t know of any exclusives for Xbox from EA in the first place, but EA is supporting PS2 more and the chance that you\'ll see those unanounced games on XBox in the future is little at the rate its selling. EA did shuffle back their release dates on their XBox games... does that ring any bells? hello? That tells me pretty clear that the priority on XBox games went even more down.

Well an important game at that. If Xbox sales would have been better (and I mean really better), then Malice probably wouldn\'t have come out on PS2 at all. Remember, supporting more than one console is quite expensive and since sales our down, it\'s quite logical that they are putting it on another plaform which insures better sales.

You\'re missing his point. By the sales numbers, Halo and DOA3 are the more succesful titles. By judging the sales, quite a lot of people probably feel the same about those games. If you think those other games are just as good - well good for you, but just because one person thinks their great doesn\'t mean they will sell heaps.

heh, they are idiotic.. because they were just jokes  :)

but if you really want to analyse, the PS2 is still expanding over the XBox userbase at a tremendous rate.. Dreamcast was dead, and everyone knew it, now XBox is so far following the same fate.. tho i doubt it will die.. i just cant figure out why Sega are putting these great games out on it which would SURELY sell better on PS2..

oh, just read sevens reply

and please dont assume all PS2 fanboys are the same (although it may seem like it at times) i do not agree with what GManJoe said at all  :)  i just wanted to make a light-hearted rebuttle..

.. ill let this go for a bit longer, dont know about the other mods tho..

That\'s why I find you amusing. In fact, I find most village idiots amusing. If you want to know what a rebuttal is, go here http://www.dictionary.com :) English ~can~ be a difficult language, even for Americans! But...you\'re probably attending public school so I can\'t blame it all on your own lack of intelligence.

But if you were to let me train you like I do my dog, you might be a little smarter!

Are you sitting down? Good boy! STAY! Now type something!

Tada! See? Works already!

Bobo....my new pet. I like it this thread even more. :D
