To τελικο launch line-up για Ευρωπη

After considerable speculation and a dash of scepticism, Microsoft has today confirmed an Xbox 360 launch line-up of 15 titles.

It includes three first-party games, plus the widely mooted five from Electronic Arts and significant contributions from Activision and Ubisoft.

 

The line-up in full:

 

* Amped 3 (2K Sports)

* Call of Duty 2 (Activision)

* Condemned (Sega)

* FIFA '06: Road to FIFA World Cup (Electronic Arts)

* Gun (Activision)

* Kameo: Elements of Power (Microsoft)

* Madden NFL '06 (Electronic Arts)

* NBA Live '06 (Electronic Arts)

* Need for Speed: Most Wanted (Electronic Arts)

* Perfect Dark Zero (Microsoft)

* Peter Jackson's King Kong (Ubisoft)

* Project Gotham Racing 3 (Microsoft)

* Quake 4 (Activision)

* Tiger Woods PGA Tour '06 (Electronic Arts)

* Tony Hawk's American Wasteland (Activision)

 

UK head of Xbox marketing Stephen McGill told MCV: "You can compare it with any console's launch line-up in history - it's clearly the best. We have a wealth of titles that cover all genres and there's no filler. We're really pumped about what we have for launch and what's coming afterwards."

Early last month, we floated the theory that the Xbox 360ʼs single price point in Japan points to both a desire to give Japanese consumers a price break ($337 at todayʼs exchange rates for the nicer bundle!) and to ease supply issues.

 

 

The image to the right comes from a large Toys-R-Us with no Xbox section in Tokyo, Japan. To purchase your Xbox 360 there, grab a ticket, make a deposit of just $8.47 US, and you can come back on launch day and pick up your 360.

 

Simple enough. But judging from the number of tickets still in that pouch, Japanese consumers who visit that Toys-R-Us store arenʼt biting. The complete lack of shelf space certainly doesnʼt help sell the console. Whatʼs it look like? Why should I plunk down 1000 yen for a product I canʼt even see? Would you buy a console based on a display that consists of a little pouch filled with tickets? The American launch includes kiosks at retailers in every city. Maybe Japanese consumers donʼt put much stock in kiosk displays and they were therefore determined to be a poor investment?

 

Maybe.

 

As our man CheapyD (he of CheapAssGamer.com) said in IM earlier today, “I think the only way most people [here in Japan] would even notice an Xbox 360 is if someone hit them in the head with it.”

Hands on XBOX360

Call of Duty 2

 

Stunning. On my Sony 51" HDTV, thats the only word to say. Imagine what you have seen on the PC, with FAR greater effects. The game runs at a constant 60fps, and it has a feel to its depth perception I have rarely seen. Environments were wide open, superbly detailed, and absolutely alive with activity. The smoke effects are the best I have ever seen, as it had depth like no smoke before it. It rolled and twisted with the environment action, and had different layers of opacity. And what blew me away was how easily the 360 handled it. Even when something exploded in your face, sending countless particles and smoke effects filling the screen, the framerate remained SOLID. Close up detail is the weakness here, as it was in the PC version. Walk up to a obscure item, wall or whatever, and the texture quality you are presented with is mediocre at best. This is not true on the characters themselves, or the more immediate enviroment, but its there. The much reported jaggies brought a smile to my face. You know how you see some very slight aliasing at high rez on your PC? Well, thats the same issue here. Jaggies show themselves on the sharpest polygons with contrasting colors, but they are small, and un-noticable while playing. In fact, I popped in COD:Big Red 1 into my Xbox and ran it side by side via split screen against COD2. The difference was MINDBLOWING. Anyone doubting the power of the 360 or the next gen(Xbox 1.5 my ass), needs to do this.

 

Overall, I was completely impressed with COD2's showing. A high end PC game rendered so easily and so effortlessly will quiet even the most die hard critic. If the 360 can render something like this, this easy, I cant even imagine what the second wave of games will look like. Make no mistake people, these systems will improve like nothing we have ever seen before from generation to generation.

"But it's such a pretty trip, you may not mind going through the motions.

 

If you can get past the terrible character design (welcome back, Rare)

(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

 

and cliché-ridden story, there's an amazing amount of technical eye candy going. Particle effects, lighting effects, explosions, flame and water&it's quite a sight to behold -- especially if you are blessed with high-definition television. Kameo is also, quite possibly, the most colorful game ever created. But at times, there can be too much going on to the point of distraction -- that there's so much visual information being presented to your eyes, your brain can't find the solution to a simple door puzzle hidden behind the lush greenery. But if this happens to be a problem with powerful next-gen systems, it's one worth enduring."

Και από τα δύο reviews Φαίνεται ότι δεν έπιασε το το 9άρι εξαιτίας της μικρής διάρκειάς του. Λένε ότι μέσα σε 10 ώρες το έχεις τελειώσει...

Αλλά σίγουρα από αυτά που γράφουν είναι φανταστικό παιχνίδι.
