"how embarrasing"

just got my monthly email newsletter from (another site that isn't as good as this one - ed) and they had the new release for each format headlined as follows


Ps2 - Tekken4
Pc - Conflict desert storm
GC - Residenbt Evil


x box - Buffy the vampire slayer!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA wow, better rush out and get an xbox

Whitestripes - Us losing Wreckless as an exclusive would be like you getting the news that Universal Studios was going multiformat. There really isn't any reason to care - cause its cack.

More vehicles and missions won't save the game from what it is. I got the game on the X-Box release day and as its already been said, its really just a show off of graphics. The actual game is frustrating and a chore to play through.

Anyway, its not like the X-Box is short of exclusive games right now and over the coming months is it.
Titles that are exclusive right now to X-Box that spring to mind are...
Halo (although due out mid next year on PC)
Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Project Gothem Racing
Jet Set Radio Future
Dead Or Alive 3
Crazy Taxi 3
Blood Wake
Amped
OddWorld: Munch's Oddysee
Gun Metal
Mad Dash Racing (I think)

Then theres something like 75 other exclusive games on the way. Some of the main ones that spring to mind are...
Halo 2
Blinx: The Timesweeper
Mech Assault
Steel Battalion
Dead Or Alive: Extreme Beach Volleyball
Dead Or Alive 4
Toejam & Earl 3
Panzer Dragoon Orta
Midtown Madness 3
Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic
Project Gothem 2
Ninja Gaiden
WWE Raw Is War
WWE Raw Is War 2
Tao Feng
Splinter Cell (not thinking otherwise till something concrete appears)
Brute Force
Project Ego
House Of The Dead 3

I'll end there for now, but those are titles that spring to mind.
Not saying you think theres no decent exclusive titles coming out by the way - just giving plenty of reason why theres no worries about losing a game like Wreckless as an exclusive.

Yes but it was already in development during the launch of the Xbox version, but currently Buffy is only on Xbox! I can't wait to get this game because currently I only have Dead or Alive 3 and Amped as games with pick up and play value, Halo, Max Payne, PGR and RalliSport Challenge require a few hours of play as they are terribly addictive :)

Its a really poor game though, Excellent Graphics but poor Gameplay.

Isn't that what they were saying about Wreckless a month ago (or is it on PS2 as well?)?

Only a month later they announced it was coming to the Cube with more vehicles and twice as many missions..

Yes, it's the X-Box and GameCube that are very similar and thanks to the GameCube's abilities to do certain special effects that other consoles can't, they're just about equal.

I agree, Vice City will be good, but I am still bored from GTA III, lol, it will come to the PC soon after anyway so I think I can survive with:

Splinter Cell
MGS2 Substance
Blinx
Racing Evoluzione
Hitman 2
Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Ghost Recon
SWAT Global Justice
Operation Flashpoint
Rainbow Six Raven Shield
Conflict Desert Storm
Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind
WWE: RAW is War (don't qoute reviews because any game with The Rock in is A* :) + they range from 5.0 to 9.2)
Dead To Rights
Shenmue 2X
Unreal Championship
Kelly Slaters Pro Surfer
Time Spliters 2
Return To Castle Wolfinstien

Thats off the top of my head for this year :) I think I will survive without Vice City :)

Although Vice City will no doubt be a good game, I think I'll be ok living without it. ;-)

Thats the most ridiculous thing i have heard all day.

I cannot be bothered to argue, But the Xbox and GC can outpeform the PS2 by a long way!

the Xbox isn't that much more powerful than the PS2, anyway we have Vice city :P

Yeah, I don't think the GC version will match the X-Box one. As garbe said, the controller thing is debatable as it really comes down to personal preference. But as far as the rest goes, X-Box will no doubt have the sharper visuals and sound, etc.
