splinter cell

I\'ve got timesplitters 2 for the xbox.

And I wouldn\'t bet on Gran Temismo being exclusive, unless you know something I don\'t.

I must admit I\'m disappointed at not getting Devil May Cry 2, but xbox is getting Dino crisis 3 and doom 2.

Timesplitters 2 - Supposed to blow the crap out of Goldeneye

it dose

TS2 better then Goldeneye and Perfect drak put togehter

Racing games?

Gran Turimso is exclusive buddy, it\'s a Sony developer. You\'ll never ever see this game on anything other than Sony owned hardware.

Note that WRC2 game out in Europe, along with V-Rally 3 (which sold quite well), CMR3, Grand Prix Challenge and Burnout 2. Gran Tursimo Concept is also out for half the price of the full version.

As far as all these top selling exclusive games for the PS2?  Please list the good ones.

For xbox:-

splinter cell  96%
Unreal championship  92%
Ghost recon   88%
mech assault  92%
jedi knight 2  88%

blinx 88%

for ps2

gta v/c  97%
spyro 60%

I have tried to list some of the top selling games that are exclusive to each console and I think the xbox exclusives are better, apart from not having gta v/c and to be honest I played it yesterday and wasn\'t overly impressed.

elder scrolls 3 94%
Morrowind what with all the FOGGIng  and REDARW

blinx 88%

I only said you were talking rubbish when you said "at least 28 titles are better or equal as good as their multi-platform counterpart.

I\'m going to have a look at the site you mentioned for top selling games

You can\'t get them on the ps2 though.

I can\'t believe you did\'nt know the GT series is a Sony exclusive. Whats your problem mate!!:nut: You must have thought Sonys\' devs could\'nt churn out that type of quality,eh?

Here\'s the link:

Note though that these are *only* October sales in America. There are many million sellers that are missing on that list, or games that have just came out in November. Just goes to show how moot that point is. In the end, it\'s what Xbox can offer at exclusives as most people already own a PS2.

I\'ve not got a problem with GT series.  I completed 88% of the game.  Eventually got bored with the endurance races etc.

GT3 is a great game.

I didn\'t know that GT4 would be exclusive, but the same was said about MGS2.  Now it\'s out on the xbox.

If you want to look at future releases.

Halo 2
Doom 3
Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball
Indiana Jones and the Emperor\'s Tomb
Panzer Dragoon Orta
Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge
Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield
Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War
Brute Force
XIII
Soul Calibur 2

There\'s load\'s more and yes some will be multi platform but I don\'t mind.

Your right it\'s not about the games that are on both consoles, it\'s about the exclusives.  I own a PS2 and if I want GT4 I\'ll get it when it comes out.  The point is there are allot of great exclusives for the xbox which would make it worth the purchase.  On top of that, the fact still remains if you want to consistently get the best version of a multi platform game, then you\'ve got to get a xbox.

well maindodi, I understand your point, but this is entirely personal preference and as far I see it, Splinter Cell and Halo are the only 2 games at the moment that interest me. On top of that, Splinter Cell is coming to PC and PS2 in the future, so one game alone does not worthy a purchase for me just yet.

Also what my point about multi platform games is as follows: there are quite a few games that happen to look slightly better in average on the Xbox, but usually you need to wait longer to play those games. Now, if I buy a Xbox, there\'s the controller I can\'t stand, so I would have to buy the controller-s or an adapter. Is it worth it, baring in mind that those games aren\'t that much better looking? I tend to think no.

Also, as PS2 is the top selling console this generation, developers will naturally develop for PS2 and then port to other consoles. That means with most games, PS2 will have multi platforms first and in some cases even the better version (examples: MGS2, NFS2, SpyHunter). So if I was to buy another console, it\'s definately not because of the multi-platform games, but because of the exclusives it has to offer. Until that Doom 3 and Halo 2 comes out on Xbox, I just don\'t see me spending the money. On a side note, seeing how many games on Xbox have sevear problems holding a constant framerate, I really do wonder if Doom 3 will run smoothly. If it\'s another 30 fps game, I\'d rather get that on the PC and see how it runs.

seven, Mech Assault should interest you as well.  It\'s one of the best games this generation.  And I don\'t even have XBox Live!.  

We really need knew mods in the main forum, this should have been moved to console debate some time ago.

And Maindodi, I can\'t believe you listed Ghost Recon and Jedi Knight II as XBox exclusive .  Not to mention Spyro as one of PS2\'s best exclusive games.. seeing as it\'s horrible and available (soon) on both other consoles.

thats not always the case

look at Timesplitters 2

Faster ..smoother and Bug free (X box version has bugs) than the NGC and X box versions.


usualy you will find that the Original version is usually the better due to the fact that the game was written for that console in mind and not just ported.

TimeSplitters 2 has a better framerate (and graphical upgrades (such as a layer of bump-mapping when you get close to walls)) than the PS2 version.

There are rumoured bugs, but I\'ve never seen conclusive evidence (it depends on which forums you go to.  XBox forums claim the PS2 version has bugs, and vice-versa).

But from all accounts, trying to play TS2 with an XBox controller is horrible.  At least compared to PS2.  Perhaps this is actually a bug, in that it isn\'t as accurate/sensitive as the PS2 version.

Take Gran Theft Auto 3
