Yes,those games should be PC only.XBOX Is getting all of the exclusives and other games which ps2 owners wont ever get.I also heard of DOOM 4 Being Xbox exclusive! heh.

Skum.. Who cares if the Xbox gets Doom III and Wolfenstien..? Playstation's just fine with MoH and Red Faction..

Doom and Quake and all of those are kinda getting like the "Rocky" movies were, to me... You want them to stop, but there's always some putzes that will buy anything with the name on it. Let the series die in peace, man..! FPS's don't exactly have the most stellar remake value as a standard.. these had pretty shallow plots anyway..!

EDIT: ..um.. I'm pretty sure Sony has more than twenty developers! :laugh:

Actually with every rendition of quake, the game engine has been completely redone and has delivered a new level of gaming power. FPS's like doom and unreal have never been into storylines, why muddle up perfect multiplayer action with a story? They were, and are, being made for one reason alone, multiplayer slaughter. I don't care what characters are in it, or what the storyline is. With an FPS I will play whatever game is the prettiest and has the coolest levels and best online support.

As for series of games that needs to die, I think Nintendo reigns king. 50+ mario games, 10+ zelda games, its ridiculous. Sony has a few, twisted metal namely... though I say that because I was never fond of the game. And I am kinda dissapointed you grouped wolfenstein into those fps games... It is a well needed sequel to the first fps game ever!

and as far as doom 4 being xbox exclusive... why don't we let the poor guys finish making doom 3 before we start talking about that?

P.S. Has anyone tracked down a list of PS2 current developers?

i agree that the xbox will do well, whether i be a hardcore ps2 fan or not. but what hotshot said here is totally wrong. the PS2 went crazy for the first six months. check the sales figures again.

only bad thing the xbox has goin for it is that its ugly as all hell, and thers no backwards library of games. which is another great thing about ps2, the library, and then the library will continue as its believed the PS3 will be ps2 compatible.

i wont go into a mass detail conflict post as you guys have done a fair bit of bickering, but i thought i needed to add my 5 cents

defenetly sink! all x-box good games are originaly ps2 or pc games ,so there is no reason to buy it ! Butt I still need to say Halo is a great game.

Definately Swim

Give the Xbox time and it will obey the law of floatation.But i must say that the area the box will boss all consoles around is online gaming,it was originally made for online gaming.
