you will not regret the week (beginning of april now) *I think* this
game will be so much higher than my expectations for a xbox port. You
can really tell they didnt make if for PS2. The graphics detail,
shading, and modeling are all top knotch....turn out the lights with
some 5.1 and you have a fright fest to scare the bejesus out of you!!!!

Yeah, it's early April now. I want to say the 4th or so, but I'm not
sure.

It apparently got moved back so it would appear on the companies next
financial quarter.

What type of tv are you playing it on?
Just asking because maybe it would look better on an excellent display using
component inputs.

I'm playing it as well. It's suprisingly good. I would be the first
pessimist about a pc to xbox title such as this but it looks real good,
especially the shadowing. Funny thing is I never really got into the pc
version.

Did you find the controls done really well too? I thought so. I'll be
playing this thing all the way through and than I'll try that expansion
for the PC.


....and what about Chaos Theory? I've never seen such detail on an xbox
title!

This is a total n00b question, as I never play any PC games these days,
but... Is there any multi-player component to this game? If this game
was Live enabled that might pursuade me to invest... I used to
deathmatch Doom2 over a modem all the time and it was a blast for 1994.

Uhm, that's not true. Really funny, but not true. Why would one person have
to be the rifleman and the other hold the flash light and open doors? In the
single player game, one person can do both.
