so who's getting a 360

[Gryph]

I was surprised to hear that Quake 4 ran choppily on 360.

 

You know what the killer app on 360 is? Live! Arcade! Smash TV online multiplayer, baby!!

[ken_cinder]

Smash TV is like TEH PWN! When you say online multiplayer, are you saying 2 players? Or did they make a version for more than 2 players?

I so love that game, still have the cart for my SNES! (Never played it in the arcade)

 

"Big money! Big Money!"

 

Edit: NM, just read on Gamespot..........2 players. 8 way action would rock!

[L.S.D]

PGR3 seems to be the king of racing

 

XBOX360 is too expensive for me :)

Man, Xbox 360 is kind of pathetic...

Already having trouble keeping up with it's own game?

You base this on one game? From a franchise that is well known to be poorly ported to console? Don't blame the hardware, blame the company responsible for the port. Doom 3 is great on Xbox.

 

Doom 3 Xbox > Activision, Vicarious Visions

Quake 4 Xbox 360 > Activision, Raven Software

 

Both run on the same engine, so where does the fault lie? Activision is a publisher, so that leaves Raven Software to blame.........for a bad port.

Yes, I based that on on product. Why? Because it shows what kind of products we can expect in the future from the Xbox 360. Quake 4 still passed QA even though it was clearly not optimized. Keep in mind this is their launch list... Does look good if some games are already a bit too much for the system.

 

Raven soft has always put out decent games too... I don't see why 100% of the blame is on them either.

Because they are the ones who did the conversion, not Activision (who is just the publisher) or the ones who previously did the Doom 3 port. HL2 on the Xbox is a hell of an accomplisment.

 

@Xx1LLMAT1CxX: Tried PDZ, fun as hell. PGR3 and PDZ ftw
