This does sound interesting. The last time I remember a rpg type game using a "shooter" game engine was when Interplay used the Descent or Descent II engine for Descent to Underground Mountain back around '96. It would definitely be fascinating to see, and the idea of a Silent Hill type of...

In all honesty, who would want it all together? If it breaks down, both of the systems are dead rather than one. Division of labor.

It is an interesting idea, but how would it be to convert 2 controllers into 1. Besides, you can usually get twin sticks off of ebay for about $50. It would just be a matter of getting the adapters.

Although not as detailed, I saw on Quake Source a while back that someone converted the source code for Quake 2 to C++, I am not sure how easy it would be to convert it with that in mind, but it may help someone I guess since the dev kits Sega had were for C and C++ programs and it appears everyone ...

Max Payne

Although I don't have an Xbox yet, does anyone know if Max Payne have any multiplayer capabilities. Also, about how many hours of game play are there?

Try Blockbuster instead of buying and read a review. There are millions of them out there like IGN. Also, there are a lot of other great games, but it all depends on what you want to spend. However, it is up to you whether or not you want to get "stuck" with a game. I know for a fact that ...

There is nothing wrong with being a fanboy as long as it doesn't constrict one's paradigm. I would say I am a Sega fan boy. I think that they made the best consoles and games, but that didn't stop me from getting an N64 or PSX after my Saturn, and it won't stop me from getting an Xbox, PS2 or GC aft...

I would recommend not selling it to a game store or a pawn shop (they won't give you jack. Your best be would be to sell it on ebay. I sell games on ebay, so if you have any questions feel free to pm me and I can refer you to my previous auctions as well as give you my recommendation.

As I sell on ebay, my recommendation is 1)if it is too good to be true, beware; 2) take a look at the feedback level next to their name. If it is in single digits, then it is a gamble. Also, click on it to see the last 6 months so you can see how many positive and negative feedbacks have been left b...

Yes, the idea of a petition to bring back the Dreamcast is a rediculous idea. Does that mean I have anything bad to say about the Dreamcast? No. Last night I was having fun playing PSO. The fact of the matter is that the rest of the game playing audience simply ignored the system. I don't even think...

I'm probably going to get an Xbox next week. It will be my second next gen. system.

Nyarlathotep, excellent point. It is simply protecting one's intellectual as well as commercial property. Nintendo must be the king of rehashing old stuff with Sega close behind.

I think the most important issue is not necessarily emulation + enhancements like Bleem! but rather simply emulation. Once the emulation gets refined, then the next step should be enhancements. That is just my personal belief; and hopefully, it will come to pass.
