I'll probably end up getting the XBox version to try coop, though I'll need to find a friend with another XBox to do it - damned not being able to render split-screen. :razz:
BTW, I just signed up for Xbox live, user name Juim(duh). I'd be glad to play some coop wit ya Fu!

Anybody else may please add me to your friends list for XBox live.

Thankee Pard!

I'll keep that in mind, though I'm not planning on doing XBox live at this point. It'll be a tough press to get the wife to agree to that one :wink:

Call me sad, but I'm really looking forward to this game:

Going to be run running around with a 5 metre tall demon or dreadnought kicking the crap out of everything, C&C style :biggrin:

I want to know what happened to the Ico sequel that was announced a long while back. I think they released a screenshot or two but not a whimper since then :sad:

No news at E3 on it I'm afraid Adam, things are looking unlikely :sad: Those pictures ages back looked so nice as well - and a horse as a playable character = cool :smile:

Juim, I'm assuming the (duh) isn't actually part of your username right? I'm "ReNo84", and I'll add you to my list when I'm next on. What games you gonna be playing on live?

Andrew, is D3 only coop on the Xbox version? If so, I'm somewhat torn, but I think its still gonna be the PC version I invest in.

Any xbox mech fans, check out Chrome Hound. I was really hoping for a sequel to Phantom Crash with online support, and it got it, but on the PS2 :sad: This is a bit of a consolation prize - a 10 player xbox live mech game from the makers of Armoured Core / Otogi. The screenshots shown have all been tiny but the few ingame ones do look pretty nice, and the premise certainly appeals to me.

Any of you ever played Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus? Long time ago, the makers of the game were talking about making a MMORPG in the Oddworld World. I would have loved to see something on that at E3...

I remember that game Doc and I think I can recall seeing screens of the 3d version too.

Yeah there are three in the series - Abe's Oddysee, Abe's Exodus, and the 3D version on the Xbox is Munch's Oddysee. I liked the first game, never played the second, and played the third at a mates and wasn't impressed - the move to 3D didn't work too well in my opinion.

Just did a little google-digging and there is a 4th one in work now...even with screenshots.

Nothing about a MMORPG tho.

Exodus was effectively a suped up version of Odysee. It's my favourite of the three. I didn't like the transition to 3D too well, it lost a lot of it's charm.
