Recommended Posts

apparently as reported by gamespot the xbox version for the most popular PC multiplayer game, has finally gone gold and should be ready to hit the shelves November 18.

quote from the preview

Generally speaking, the graphics have been upgraded quite a bit since the PC original and will feature higher-poly counts. The game uses 24- and 32-bit textures instead of the 8-bit palettized ones found in the PC version. The end result is a slick visual package that does a fine job of immersing you in the gritty experience while moving at a steady frame rate.

sounds like a great game, just the type of game microsoft needs to promote their 'Live' service.

I know a lot of people whine that this is an old game, and it is but more than old it's timeless. It's a great game with great replay value, I can guarantee you any time day or night you'll find tons of people playing the PC version.

The Xbox version certainly looks better and when you include Live and a Communicator you get some very cool multiplayer.

I know some people don't like using a gamepad (I'm one of them) but they have certainly been doing a good job with gamepads on recent FPS games, especially since the Xbox has so many of them. Not only that but believe it or not there are tons of people that actually prefer gamepads.

Anyhow I know I'll be playing it.
