i played gr and island thunder on xbox to death. but i haven't been keeping up on gr2. In what way is it becoming "R63-ized"?

I think he means that GR2 is getting a full-on console-ization...(i.e. simplified). GR and GR: IT are pretty close to the PC games, while RS3 was greatly simplified from the PC version. I, for one, liked the changes made to RS3 on XBOX, even if it made it closer to CS than the slower, more realistic and deeper Raven Shield on the PC.

You know what, I'm a fan of the PC series and it was really disheartening to hear about it being dumbed down for the consol audience. After reading a few interviews and seeing this batch of pictures I'm starting to get a little more optimistic. They seem to be really taking it seriously and it might be a fresh re-imagining of the series.

Like Rainbow Six 3, you now have only one team of three instead of two teams. That alone limits the tactical opportunities you had previously, and the three (or is it two?) guys you do have can't be directed around a map with waypoints; again like R63 you can only direct them using line-of-sight commands. This is, according to Ubisoft, to "keep you in the action".

well...I feel sorry for the dissapointed fans, but this will draw me in. It used to be very ugly and wasn't that fun to play. Now their making it over the shoulder/3rd person and having a ton of great online features (my biggest interest) including full co-op. It may very well be dumbed down, but for me it's gone from no interest to pre-order. Granted, I was not a player of the PC version.
Online play is great and all, but I've never had as much fun with a multiplayer game as I have at a Halo LAN party with a bunch of friends. I'm sure we'll have a great time with Halo 2 online, but having all 12 to 16 people in the same house is tons better, splitscreen or no.Ramirez said:
Anyone who thinks that sitting alone in their house/apartment/room/whatever playing against mostly strangers online is better than being with all of your friends talking trash and playing together needs to have their head checked. Seriously, no sarcasm included. Sitting around eating pizza between rounds talking about how you hit your buddy in mid-air with a rocket is way fucking better than coming onto the GAF and bragging about your rank on Live.

The environments are fucking nice! Wonder about the framerate, though. Hopefully, it will be smoother than some of the vids I've seen.

I've had this game pre-paid for for months. This and Halo 2 will be my special XBox treats this year! I can't wait to play it!
