My X-Box game shopping list is pretty huge - like around 70 games. ;-)) If anyone wants to see the list I'll do it when I get home. ;-)

The Official Xbox Magazine had an interview Matthieu Ferland (senior producer of Splinter Cell)and he says "When we begun development in autumn 2000, we had no specific console in mind. After a few months, when we had a clear view of what we wanted the game to become, we started to test some of our ideas on xbox, and discovered how powerful it is................... We've realised that other consoles could create a very good game out of the game's basic concept, but xbox was the only one to provide the features needed in order to develop exactly what was in mind"

I always use inverted controls, I've been used to that set up since Goldeneye.

I cant wait for it, the cool thing is i will play it twice through. Once as evil and once as good(maybe) if i can i might find it a little hard not to be evil.

Yeah.

In my opinion blinx does'nt look like a childs game - more of an origanal, innotiative platform/adventure game for all ages. I am really looking forward to playing a demo of it.

Hmmm i'll have to try enclave again without the inverted thumbstick, might be a bit better.

You can change the thumstick controls so up is up and down is down. I don't like inverted controls either.

It's good to see that Blinx is on most people's shopping lists. I think games like this (Nintendo-like games) need to sell well to broaden the appeal of Xbox as many people consider the system to be too "PCish".
