EA unveils games for Xbox 360 launchDela @ Oct 03, 2005 23:34 | 36 comments
The Godfather, Battlefield 2: Modern Combat and a new game from the Burnout Revenge franchise are all also under development for the new Xbox console, EA said, but the release dates for these games were not disclosed. The Xbox 360 is Microsoft's next generation gaming console and is set to be released on November 22nd this year.
Getting the early release ahead of Sony's PlayStation 3 console is vital for Microsoft considering the reputation and following that the "PlayStation" name has. Putting specs of the consoles aside is something that gamers will do pretty quickly, and then the judgment of which is better and which will take the #1 spot will come down to other factors such as the amount and quality of the games released for each console.

Comment by: arcanix (Oct 05, 2005 04:27) Well it matters if games are in 1080i resolution and you can't use textures detailed enough if there's no disc space where to put it. So if console has the potential to run games at this resolution, then they should take the advantage of the whole capacity. And games will be much more expensive than on this generation consoles, since neo-gen consoles are many times faster than the old ones. So models have more polygons, higher resolution textures = more work = costs more money. And who pays all this? YOU dear consumers, you who play the games.
And to the original topic:
EA releases every damn year the same crappy games with shinier helmets and current year in the game's name. EA sport games suck bad. Burnout is ok, and I'm looking forward to that battlefield game. |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 05, 2005 18:43) I think that M$ has made a big change from Xbox to Xbox 360. Besides all the improvemnets to the specs'n' all, but they have succeeded in : Being the first to come out with their next-gen system. Bringing some playstation developers to develop games for Xbox 360. And has the most media coverage on a system ever since playstation 2 came out. XBOX 360 IS GONNA ROCK. |
Comment by: lxhotboy (Oct 06, 2005 09:04) Hey Jason....Which developers did microsoft get to make games for the 360 that previously made games for the ps2?????? Are they going to get any of the games that have been exclusives for the ps2??? And if so do you mind listing a few. If they get some that i already liked i might try a xbox 360. |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 06, 2005 09:45) Here you go lxhotboy. You should find out that developers are losing intrest in developing games for PS3, and moving to develop for Xbox 360 : www.xbox365.com/news.cgi?id=GGuLdPPLrP09291544 |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 06, 2005 09:50) Srry about not having it come up as a quick link. all u have to do is scroll over it, then press ctrl + c, then move it to the google bar and it comes up. If u dont have the google bar then ur gonna have to type the address out. Srry again |
Comment by: wetsparks (Oct 06, 2005 13:33) im sorry Jason8 but i can't trust a website that is so obviously biased about stuff like that especially since the Playstation name will make so many developers a lot of money. |
Comment by: jetyi83 (Oct 06, 2005 17:38) i dont know about that, 360 looks like its on the downfall to me.
they are making big mistakes and if they keep making subpar innovations they will be right next to nintendo.
ps3 is going to be by far the better of the two. The only reason 360 will sell anything is because its coming out 6 months earlier. |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 06, 2005 18:11) There r many other reasons y Xbox 360 will sell a lot, not just cause it comes out 6 months earlier!!!. |
Comment by: neo1000 (Oct 07, 2005 01:44) What`s this? battle of the fanboys? |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 07, 2005 02:00) Ya. Ill admit it. I am a fanboy of Xbox & Microsoft. Always have and always will be. I have played Xbox since I got it in 2002, along with PS2 and I have to say that Xbox whooped its ass in the graphics, but PS2 had better games. this time round, Xbox 360 has the better graphics and games over PS3. All PS3 has is the speed with 7x cores. They have no good games what-so-ever. |
Comment by: lxhotboy (Oct 07, 2005 08:43) LOL, Ok you cant actually know which system will have better graphics until they are both out and as far as the games go. Well sony is smarter than you think. I have a hunch that sony is holding its titles of great games so that microsoft will not be prepared when they finally do anounce them. Kinda like hitting them when their back is turned. Honestly i am thinking they may be doing the same for the PSP. They have not released a big second wave of games yet and GTA was originally suppose to be out by now. I think they are waiting for the 360 to release more PSP games to interrupt 360 sales and i have read they may also drop the ps2 to $99 dollars so if sony does both of those things it will slow the 360 down some on sales a bit. People are still going to buy the 360 though. |
Comment by: neo1000 (Oct 07, 2005 22:34) The atari jaguar`s gonna rock man. |
Comment by: lxhotboy (Oct 10, 2005 04:45) LOL.... Man what are you smoking dude??? Atari jaguar??? Man email me some of that twanky you smoking, its got to be some of that fire. LOL |
Comment by: wetsparks (Oct 11, 2005 14:48) i gotta agree with lxhotboy, the ps3 is to big to not have more news surrounding it so sony has got to be keeping things quiet so that they can have some big releases or big news to take away some thunder from the 360. someone else i think mentioned how much money sony has been losing lately and they need the ps3 to succeed big time. also the ps3 will have better graphics because it has more than twice the amount of gigflops that the 360 has gigaflops=power and graphics |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 11, 2005 14:56) I have to agree with the both of you because its true. PS3 will have better graphics and be the fastest machine out of all of them. The only thing that they r still missing is good Games. Microsoft keeps beating them in the good games department cause Sony only has games from the original developer teams. Microsoft has exclusive teams just for the Xbox 360. examples like : Epic Games - Gears of War Bungie - Halo 3 Rare - Perfect Dark Zero, Kameo,(more probably later) Ubisoft - Ghost Recon 3 and Splinter Cell 4 (even though they makie games for both systems, it just works better with Xbox and Xbox 360, according to Ubisoft Montreal)
And thats just to name a few that will be making KICK ASS games for the 360, making it 10x better in the games department. Also no one else has online gaming like Xbox Live does. So pretty much PS3 and 360 are tied in the next gen-race. Sony better " Bring it On " |
Comment by: wetsparks (Oct 11, 2005 15:00) I think that is pretty fair except you forgot a little things called Final Fantasy, Devil May Cry, and oh year Resident Evil. Also you have to pay for xbox live and we don't know yet if Sony will decide to start charging for internet gaming. |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 11, 2005 15:02) Ok . u also forgot sumthin. Final Fantasy and Resident Evil r all going to be on Xbox 360, Xbox Live Silver is Free and Gold is 49.99 a year and sony will have online, but itll be the same as PS2. and yes that will cost money. |
Comment by: wetsparks (Oct 11, 2005 15:06) were did you here about those games going to 360? ive allways wondered were people get all this news anyways. |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 11, 2005 15:09) If you bought the Xbox 360 Launch Guide Magazine, its got all the info on the system and the games. Youll find that Final Fantasy 11 and possibly 12 ( not anounced yet ) will be there. as well as ull see a little bit of Resident evil 5 near the end. ill try and find a site that u can got to for all the games. |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 11, 2005 15:17) ok. here you go. Go To : www.xbox360news.com/Blogs/News/hqs/blr_262.aspx for final fantasy 11
for Resident Evil 5. Go to news.teamxbox.com/xbox/8803/Resident-Evil-5-Screenshots/ |
Comment by: wetsparks (Oct 11, 2005 15:28) well it looks like not even sony can offer these people enough money or microsoft offered so much to keep things exclusive. any ways though things will be getting interesting in the next couple months and we get closer to launch times for these two systems. :) either way you gotta say the consumers will win this war :D |
Comment by: Jason8 (Oct 11, 2005 15:48) And thats The TRUTH. :P |
