As we are nearing X05, the news is already starting pour in. The next few days will be even more hectic than the recent Tokyo Game Show, at least for us as this event is all about Microsoft and the 360. X05 will be the last significant opportunity for Microsoft to showcase the Xbox 360 prior to its worldwide launch in November/December, and Microsoft has promised to make the most of it.Microsoft Games Studios GM, Shane Kim is promising vast improvements to known games and the unveiling of new ones. As we reported earlier today, at least one of those new games will be from Bioware. Talking to Next Generation Kim Says- "Until this point we've not been able to demonstrate the power of Xbox 360 as clearly as we like. At X05 people will see that the next generation undoubtedly begins with Xbox 360." He added, "In addition to the titles third parties are showing, we'll be showing off Kameo: Elements of Power, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero and Gears of War at X05. It's been a long time since E3 and these games have had significant improvements made in that time. Back then we were still running on early kits. Now we're running on finished hardware. Also, PGR, Gears of War and Perfect Dark Zero were only shown behind closed doors at E3 and Kameo was our only title on the floor. Even [at the Tokyo Game Show], the games shown there were more representative, but we still held a lot of stuff back. At X05 there's going to be a lot more shown.” Also according to a Microsoft spokesperson, we will finally get more exact information about which titles will be available from day one and which titles that will be available in the 'release window'.

Unregistered - Ken Katuragi 10.03.2005 07:39 Where is Ghost Recon 3? Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 08:24 ghost recon has been cancelled on xbox360, has its not powerfull enougth to run it, so its a ps3 launch title now. Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 08:29 Someones jealous that the ps3 isn't coming out in november. Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 08:36 Whoa, really?....damm thats too bad, now I won't buy a 360 since you were so kind enough to let me know that its no longer for the 360! I'll just sit around and twittle my thumbs waiting for a PS3 now, like you, so I can get it....I wonder if you are believe any of that bullshit I just typed, 'cause it was just as obvious that Im fucking with you like it was just as obvious that nobody in their right mind beleived any of that bullshit you just typed before. I guess I should have just ignored you like everyone else you know does. Unregistered - GAMEFACE 10.03.2005 08:41 oh #4....#6 is from yours truly...GAMEFACE!....LOL on NOV, 22nd 2005. resfan 10.03.2005 08:44 bullshit JsonHenry 10.03.2005 08:47 I think #4 is upset that their are a lot of games being cancelled for the PS3 that are going to make it on the X360. (Like Condemed: Criminal Origens) The developers don't want to spend that kind of money on R&D. Sony had a strategy of making it hard to make games for the Cell processor, that way developers would not have the cash to port it to any other system giving the PS3 a bunch of PS3 only titles by default. It is backfiring. The 360 has a powerful, easier to code for, and much hyped system. They also sent a ton of Dev Kits out that makes things easier. (not easy, but easier than Sony's debacle of a system) Which means most developers, especially small development houses, will not be spending the money on the PS3, and making games for the 360. (maybe the revolution too, as nintendo has a history of easy to develop for consoles) resfan 10.03.2005 08:48 http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/tomclancysghostrecon3/factsheet_6124285.html JsonHenry 10.03.2005 08:52 So, call me an idiot if you will, but when exactly does X05 start again? Unregistered - Ubisoft 10.03.2005 09:05 I hope they show off gr3 and maybe an announcement of splinter cell 4 ??? JsonHenry 10.03.2005 09:18 You know, I love Tom Clancy stuff. Rainbow Six games, Ghost Recon games... but I just can't get into the Splinter Cell games. I have no idea why, but I just can't seem to make myself like them. The games have great graphics, I love stealth games (Like Thief) but I just can't seem to enjoy playing Splinter Cell. Maybe I am playing the game wrong or something? Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 09:56 I think you dont get into splinter cell because the on-line play sucks...they need to add more players and let you play spy vs spy... Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 10:01 #10- look at the date on that article. HAHA resfan 10.03.2005 10:13 the point is its gonna be on the 360 Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 10:16 Let's get real here but do I really wanna be running around as a fairy queen in Kameo We want real games like GR3 or at least something simular Come on Mr Gates give us what we want!!! Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 10:28 the date DOES matter, check this out: http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/adventure/condemned/factsheet_6123904.html . A game we KNOW is cancelled, but the fact sheet is still up! Lucid360 10.03.2005 10:52 #9 agree with you 1000% and nice to see someone who is singing the song I have been for like 2 months... We all know it will be that way. MS wants to win the war with superior numbers i think, they will make it so easy to develop for that they will have tons of games and some will suck bad but itll be easier to develop for than PS3. Unregistered - WildAttorney 10.03.2005 12:03 JsonHenry, you stated: "Sony had a strategy of making it hard to make games for the Cell processor, that way developers would not have the cash to port it to any other system giving the PS3 a bunch of PS3 only titles by default." If that is the truth, it would be a good story indeed. Do you have any source for that statement? --- WildAttorney (www.spinning360.com) Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 12:15 WHAT ABOUT LOAD TIMES ARE THEY LONG OR IS THRE ANY LOAD TIME HAS ANYONE HEARD ANYTHING Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 14:11 People that have played the xbox 360 says the load times are very short, so short that you don't even notice there is load times. They said that the load times are 5 seconds and under! Unregistered - mafia 10.03.2005 15:49 The game just got pushed to 2006, most likely Jan. It will be out in plenty of time, it is not even being released for PS3 at the moment. I have no idea where that information came from but please do not post bullshit! JsonHenry 10.03.2005 15:50 #20 I meant they had that plan in action for the emotion engine, and developers such as Gabe Newell himself have echoed my statements on them using the same game plan this time around, but Devs are not taking the bait. As far as the facts, go dig it up yourself. Also, while you are at it, why don't you do something worth while on your site. I visited it, and it blows pretty bad. Next! JsonHenry 10.03.2005 15:53 #20, I was wrong about your site sucking, for some reason I was thinking of Xboxcircle.com, instead of yours. And as far as what I was saying, they posted something like that on this site, with a direct quote from Gabe Newell himself. (as well on other sites with varied developers saying that they absolutely hate the cell architecture and have opted to dev for the 360 instead) Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 15:53 This won't be the last chance to show off the 360. On the 14th the Digital Life Convention in New York City is taking place, where 360 is supposed to be playable on the show floor! Yey for us east coast gamers! xD Unregistered - Xbox 360 Stinks!! 10.03.2005 18:32 ps3 is 10times faster than this x05 thing it really sucks wait for ps3 its worth it Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 18:49 #27 Comparing a console to a convention?... Unregistered - PS3Player 10.03.2005 19:53 Long live Sony, loyalty to the end, the ones who went away shall come back when the light hits them in the arriving war, time will tell it all. Believe in the PS3, is belief in reality.Long live Sony, loyalty to the end. Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.03.2005 20:07 #29, How loyal will Sony be to you when your PS3 stops working within the first year? Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 10.04.2005 07:34 Nice #30. The other thing is, xbox 360 has Microsoft backing it. Meaning it will be able to do alot if intresting things with the Windows operating system. Only time will tell.. Add Comment |
