...and many more :p

[rant ]
And Malice was one of the first Xbx games, but they also made it for PS2 and now the Xbox version of malice looks like that crapfest PS2 version up there.

PS2 is holding the f*cking video game industry back because developers always have to worry about it running on PS2 and then give Xbox and GCN some lame ass ports.

Especially developers like EA.

Yea ... Spatula does make a point.

But I still hate it when EA ports games from PS2 to GCN/XBOX and doesn't improve anything. EA is a big enough company that they could spend a few weeks making the GCN/XBOX versions better.

Prince, you're never going to make a point by finding the worst PS2 screenshots and finding the best Xbox screenshots. You can never completely trust screenshots.

Exactly my point. EA doesn't use the power of GCN or Xbox and give us PS2 ports.

Xbox games should come standard with custom soundtracks, HDTV support, Dolby Digital 5.1, and depending on what kind of game it is, System Link and Xbox Live support.

Meh, Prince you cannot compare games that were made 2 years apart, even if they are the same game. But i still do agree that PS2 is holding back the possibilities of gaming to come.

I don't see why everyone on this forum loves to bash other consoles. As long as you like your console I wouldn't worry about what the other console is doing. Graphics don't make the game what it is even though alot of people think they do. Off topic, is that Malice game out? I saw a preview for it on Extended Play but never heard anything else about it.

Michael Bluth
05-10-2003, 08:32 PM
I'm pretty sure Malice was just canned, or pushed back quite some time.

Gunpei
05-10-2003, 08:34 PM
Wasnt Malice supposed to be voiced by Gwen Steffani from No Doubt?

Prince
05-10-2003, 08:41 PM
Malice was like the first Xbox game shown. I remember it was supposed to come out in 2001 or so... Now its coming out late 2003 or maybe even early 2004. They should just can it alltogether.

And yeah No Doubt is doing the soundtrack for it at least i know Gwen is involved in some way.

She is doing the voice of the main character, they said it on Extended Play.

i couldnt agree more.

and a note to gambit:

this thread wasnt created on gameplay, i dont think. because we're looking at screenshots. wreckless also sucks.

i was showing you that the ingame graphics for onimusha 2 are mind blowing. and that the graphics for SSX TRICKY were for the most part the same for two systems.

Prince
05-10-2003, 11:44 PM
Looks like the new TMNT game will have 2 players instead of 4. Probably because Konami is developing it around PS2. Once again held back.

Were not bashing.....well we are kinda;), but its more of a complaint that the ps2 isnt good enough.

It sucks that the ps2 is the most popular, so the developers go "hey more people will buy a game on that console!!11!", so they make the game for the ps2, it ends up looking like crap, then it gets ported to the GCN/XBOX. Since the GCN and XBOX have higher standards for graphics, the game reviewers give it a lower score then the ps2 version. Which is pretty much telling people that the ps2 version is better, so the consumers go and get there ps2 version, thus giving sony more money so they can advertise more, and the developers will see that the game sold better on ps2, which causes the developer to make more ps2 games. Making the ps2 even more popular.

What am I trying to say? PS2 SUCKS.

BULL SHIT


Fuck PS2...
I'm fucking selling it now... fuckin, no one fucks with my Turtles............

FUCK...

So there won't be 4 player action at all?
Or just no 4 player co-op?
Or... what?

Prince
05-11-2003, 05:07 AM
No 4 player action at all. The GMR scans i saw said 1-2 players and all the screens only had 2 players. Sucks :(

Gunpei
05-11-2003, 05:12 AM
Well, i have also heard that it is multiplayer ONLY and that you always have to play with two people. That would suck even more, but i dont know if it is true.

Spatula
05-14-2003, 02:58 AM
ah, fuck. i swear i will..uh..not buy the game. if that happens.
