There's a new feature they're doing over at IGN Xbox that essentially asks for games on other platforms to be ported over to Bill's monster X. The first game for this new feature is RF. They even got a little poll there asking what you think. As it currently stands 55% of the people who read the bit and bothered to vote believe it should by all means be ported over, while 8% claimed the game sux (probably the same eight percent of goblins whom regularly read and then complained when Gamecenter closed). I really can't see why it wouldn't be ported over. It's not like it has to even be done by [V], (Gearbox, aka Valve’s console bitch). Check this out... PC to Xbox ports are supposed to be super-duper easy; RF on the PC will be D3D; RF will come out on the PC very close to an Xbox launch; RF is already done on the PS2 and is thus "console friendly;" THQ is already supporting the box with a few games... So what's the problem? You know, if I were a betting man I'd bet dollars to donuts on an E3 announcement, and if there isn't one, rest assured that I'm going to be busting some ass at the Toy Headquarters. I'd really like to see what all those fancy features on the box can do with our bad boy of FPS gaming. Think better lighting, better particle effects, better texture resolutions, higher resolution graphics with better FSAA, higher poly counts, better framerates, better multiplayer. Yikes! Pretty cool if you ask me. I’d prefer some Gamecube action (because we know so little about it, and it’s supposed to be sooo cool), but that’s just me. Anyway, dig[/url] the feature. Class dismissed.
