Did they ever show those horrific J Allard XBox commercials in the US?

And no, UT maps will not work with UC for obvious reasons
true, but the ironic thing is that they put a HD on it and dont want people to think of it as a pc.........

Most developers see consoles as a main priority and pc as something wich can wait...
I got a hartfelt middlefinger for those guys...
i love consoles and im smart enough to handle a pc. obviously all the pc addicts dont know what theyre missin. for the love of god the new consoles have games that are visually on par with U2! and there are certain games that you will never see on a pc....

uncustomizable games, low replay value, depth, poor internet play, controllers, fighting games, Madden, etc.
well youre kind of right, but i hate using keyboard/mouse for anything except fps games. and i love the customizing **** with pc games. as far as internet play goes i really dont care for it. and a consoles life span is 3-5 years with pc you have to upgrade pretty much every year..........

Right behind you...
internet play is the #1 feature for me for almost every game I own... why do think UT keeps going and going and going... the bots aren't very exciting

also, my last PC went over three years without a single upgrade... didn't put a penny into it, and the PC i just put together is about the cost of buying an XBox, PS2, and gamecube plus it has tons of other obvious uses... unlike a console even if they're trying to expand what consoles can do, albeit in a limited capacity

ive tried a few, and now i have a usb converter thing so i can use n64 & psx controllers. im sure you are aware that no controller will work good for fps. and another thing is having the monitor right in your face. its good for fps, but the other genres just dont seem right sitting face to face with the monitor. and my favorite games are from nintendo :)

I feel your pain there lucifix, I live in southeastern Ohio, and the only thing we have here is a radio shack and half a dozen computer homebusinesses. To get anything I'd have to drive two hours to columbus. This is what I do, try going to tigerdirect.com
you can get some good deals there, but once you buy, you're subscribed to their catalog, which oculd be good or bad. Either way, it won't hurt to take a look.

With gaming, there are some games, most notably FPS, that have to be on a PC, they don't work nearly as well on a console. There are others, like those fighting games, that would hardly be playable on a pc without some extra hardware, and even then would be inferior. Of course, other games work equally well on either. I moved almost entirely over to pc once I realized that Nintendo was targeting an audience far younger than I. (I'd been with nintendo since shortly after the launch of the NES.) Now I'm only partially using the ps2, whenever pc gets dull.

Its a classic alright. Didnt someone post a screenshot a few months back showing a screenshot of Deck16][ with horrid green lights that was going to be in UC?

Silly boy. That screenshot with the horrid green lights IS the real Deck16][ =)
