Thoughts regarding the X-Box...

[tecumseh]

"The XBOX is not meant, like some of you people think, to totally eradicate PC Gaming as it exists today - it appeals to a different market segment."

Your right!! Microsoft has stated time and time again that the Xbox will not infringe on the PC platform. It's a totally different experience.

For instance, AOE series, UT and Diablo 2 are better played on a PC. Some games are truly single player experiences, where a monitor, keyboard and mouse are needed to fully enjoy the game. Also, Microsoft would be nuts to infringe on PC gaming. they have too much invested. Chris Taylor's Dungeon Siege will be out in a few months and will only be on the PC. And it's a Microsoft product. Same for Age of mythology. A PC game from the guys that produced the million selling AOE series and it will too be a Microsoft product. Also there plane and train simulations are all PC products and are produced by Microsoft. And all are highly profitable!

<< The only problem they mentioned is when they play Halo in Dolby Digital they hear a "crackling". >>



works fine for me



<< I felt the Xbox's controller detracted from the gaming experience. It feels like a cheap POS, and it is much too large. >>



While I agree it is large, I definitely don't think it is cheap. It feels very well made IMO.

DOA IS NOT a GOOD FIGHTER!!

Man, i swear....true fighting games are the likes of Street Fighter, TEKKEN, and MORTAL KOMBAT 2!! but since then...the games aren't just the same!!

DOA has only one good thing going for it! the GRAPHICS!!!

i mean half the people who buy this game is for the bouncing boobs...and sh!t....granted fun to watch...but heck....the game depth is not there...everyone has like 100 moves...but when you play it...we all use 3 or 4 who the hell remembers all of them anyz!! u know!?

dude Xbox is made for graphics...we still have to see the games..!!! i hear great things about Halo....but going down the list of games... we still have to see.....

graphics isn't alz everything....let's get back to teh games!!
