Quall Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 I noticed that on the front page of Jedioutcastii.com, they posted the new Clone Wars game for Gamecube. I being a fan of Xbox, felt that xbox was being left out with the news. So here's some good SW news for Xbox . the great game Jedi Outcast is comming out for xbox. screen shots and stuff here Now for even Greater news. Bioware has made a deal with Microsoft to make an game only to be reliesed on Xbox. Now for the even greater part. Bioware is making the RPG for Lucas Arts. It's supposed to take place 4000 years before the first starwars movie. Here's the Gamepro artical: BioWare Signs On With Microsoft 06-AUG-02 Microsoft announced today that it has signed a deal with the PC RPG masters at BioWare that will make one of their next games Xbox-only. The deal will give Microsoft an exclusive, BioWare-developed Xbox title, which they'll then publish under their own label. No game particulars were mentioned in the announcement, and the release date is still unknown. "I'm very excited about this new alliance between Microsoft and BioWare," said Ed Fries, vice president over at Microsoft Game Studios. "These guys are some of the most creative developers in the world. We're looking forward to working with them to bring the creativity and great gameplay they're known for to Xbox." BioWare, if you're not up on the PC scene too much, is responsible for some of the biggest titles in computer RPG fandom these days, including Neverwinter Nights and the Baldur's Gate series. They're already working on another Xbox-only RPG, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic for LucasArts, which will come out later this year. In a separate announcement, BioWare co-head Greg Zeschuk mentioned that the studio is also working on a new, top secret PC RPG project that hasn't been presented to any publisher yet. "Our PC developers are already hard at work on our other new 'secret' PC roleplaying game," he Zeschuk commented. "Creating our own universe is a great opportunity for us to deliver a game that is uniquely BioWare, and we look forward to creating an immersive BioWare RPG experience in the tradition of [our] games." head over to Gamepro and check it out.

OnlyOneCanoli Posted August 12, 2002 Share Posted August 12, 2002 Yeah, it's cool news for Xbox owners. Not exactly breaking news, but good news nonetheless. Knights of the Old Republic is also coming out for the PC though, sometime in early 2003 I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Groovy Posted August 14, 2002 Share Posted August 14, 2002 You know I am really debating that when that opportunity comes if I should get a PS2 or an XBOX. I am leaning towards PS2 because of the options and Sony's staying power, but XBOX has Obi-Wan and Halo.........Damnit I like video games but I hate all the cut throat competition in selling these systems only to guess at which one will last and which will become obsolete......like the Dreamcast.
