"Where are all the PC ports?"

Don't get me wrong, I prefer original games like Halo, JSRF, Blinx, Project Ego, etc, but I was expecting the "early days" of the XBOX to be littered with ports of quality PC games like the Thief series, Myst III and others.
(Max Payne & Champ Manager are the only two I can think of).

So what d'you think?
Whilst we're patiently waiting for the up-and-coming great original XBOX games to appear, should there have been more (slightly older) quality PC games ported to the XBOX?

don't worry there coming i mean i can't wait for counter strike condition zero

**drools homer style**

Yeah, there's quite a few on their way. I just thought there'd be more on the shelves by now - like Black & White, Myst III, etc.
Maybe Microsoft are conscious of not creating the "PC image" for the XBOX, which I can understand.

I hope Mafia comes onto the Xbox becuase that game looks awesome and I don't think my PC will be able to handle the speed and graphics that the game has to offer. Operation Flashpoint is one of the biggest PC ports that I am highly anticipating, I can't wait to play that game it is truly awesome on PC but due to a ok/mediocre graphics card the game doesn't look as good as it should, also there is a lot of slow down becuase my processor isn't fast enough. Deus EX 2: Invisible War is going to be amazing on Xbox, It looks like Doom 3 is coming onto the Xbox, possibly Unreal 2 has been discussed as an Xbox release. Other PC ports include some great titles that I can't wait to play, they are:

Max Payne (out now)
Championship Manager 01/02 (out now)
Black and White: Next Generation
Deus EX 2: Invisible War
Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis
Doom 3
Commandos 2
Crimson Skies
Duke Nukem Forever
The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind
Myst 3: Exile
Midtown Madness 3 (derived from previous 2 on PC)
Return To Castle Wolfinstein
Serious Sam
Tom Clancys Ghost Recon

They are mostly due out between now and christmas bar a couple of them but they all look great so far and I will definatley be picking up the 1st person shooter ports as there are some truly fantastic games due out on the Xbox which are already out on PC.

I think Black and White is coming across, then theres Deux Ex 2. Thats All i can think of at the top of my head.
