Dreamcast, GameCube or Xbox release for MP?

***eshwaaz*** · July 26th, 2001

Hi!
Are you going to release a DC, GC or XB version of Max?
I hope you do (especially for DC), ´cause if you only release it for PC and PS2 I´ll have to upgrade my computer ...

A PS2 version will come out but for the other consoles it hasnt been announced.

Yeah!
I know about the PS2 version, but I don´t have one and it´s too expensive to me.
Look, instead of buying a PS2 + Max (and selling my DC

)I could buy 10 DC or PC games!
Or I could have 256MB PC133 RAM, a GF2 GTS and an Athlon 1.4 Ghz + Max (and sell the "old" hardware)

Oh! I nearly forgot: Thanks for your answer!
Does anybody know anything special?

i wouldn't count on gamecube. with nintendo rejecting squaresoft after square wanted to make ff11 for gc and nintendo said no i wouldn't count on any halfway decent games coming out for it.

nintendo rejecting square made me finally decide on getting an x-box. i bought an n64 and i'm not owning another console where mario and zelda are the only good games.

PS2 version has been under development for a while now. There are also some plans for x-box version. Sorry, but no Dreamcast version is planned at this point.

Nope, no Dreamcast version planned, and since Sega plans to stop supporting the Dreamcast after March of next year I'm highly doubtful that they *will* have one. As for Game Cube...I doubt it will be on there as well. I can't believe Nintendo was stupid enough to throw away FF11 on the GameCube. I'm going to have both an X-Box and a GameCube, most likely, and I'm getting a PS2 in a few weeks so I can play Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec, but...Nintendo...stupid. Wow. Unless Square once screwed Nintendo at some point. I was always curious why Square started dealing with Sony and never made any more of the FF series for the Nintendo. Too bad the Dreamcast is dying. I'll be sorry to see it go.

I also think it was stupid by Nintendo.
And as I like FF, I hope there´ll be a PC version of it.
If they do the same with all Developers...

Really nothing announced???
F****!!!!!!!!!!

This had to be said!

An XBox version could be good. I like what I've seen from it so far... there are plenty of games that are appealing to me. Max Payne could be improved a lot graphically with it as well... although on both PS2 and XBox I'd be a bit concerned about the controls..

***Hyperium*** · July 27th, 2001

Another nice thing about XBox is that there is a good chance of Square bringing over FFXI, which is an MMORPG, so it may not be a traditional FF game, but it's a start. Square also wants to bring FFXI over to Gamecube, but Nintendo doesn't seem to want anything from Square.

@Hyperium:
Why should there be any problems? Does MP use so many Buttons?
I could handle Shadowman very well on my N64.

By the way, tst: Another good game on this console! And did you play Perfect Dark or Goldeneye?
