Got an X Box in my room and PS2 down here beside my pc.

Everything on X-Box comes out on PC anyway mate......eventually, i doubt this is gonna be a big budget exclusive title either

i was thinking the exact same thing mate.

Hmm, after initially raised expectations over this product my confidence over it has taken another knock. Initially I was rather happy that it was being published by Activision, hoping that it would have a nice PR budget and be pushed in a similar manner to Tony Hawk et al..... Unfortunately the game is under Activision's 'value' publishing license, which offers a much reduced publicity profile and less notoriety in the greater gaming world (what the game should be aimed at)

Examples of other games published under this label:
Rapala Pro Fishing
Cabela's Deer Hunt 2005 Season
Shrine Circus Tycoon
Carnival Cruise Lines Tycoon

Is Cabela a pro deer hunter or something?

Gawd knows. Doesn't exactly bode well when a publisher throws the game in a similar heap as those classy examples of interactive entertainment. Also, something I've just thought of.... Due to the status of the label this game is being published under, I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that it will be released in Europe any time soon.....if at all.

Aditional Edit: A search and some digging on the Activision UK website comes up with 0 results for this game. I'll try getting in touch with them myself and asking some contacts I know to see if they know anything more.

Gran Turismo all the way! Try that on you ex-box. But paintball game..humm..damit!

Coming the end of the this year to Xbox, Forza Motorsport..... Interesting car licenses (lots of European cars and not just 100s of Skyline variations), car damage, Live functionality, better looking, better customisations (with actual body kits not just 'internal tweaks') and just generally more goodness......

It's going to suck, as well it should.

They make Counter-Strike for a reason.

Some of the best games don't go mainstream. Heroes of Might and Magic was the most innovative and entertaining game I have EVER played - and that didn't go big
