I believe it's time for me to invest in a 360.

And let me guess, his love interest insists he has "minty fresh breath" before they kiss and offers him a couple of airwaves.

The question is will it be a cop out choice like Indigo Prophecy where whatever you choose it doesnt matter, the end is always the same, or Dues Ex where you just get different endings or will it be proper completely different storylines?

Thanks, Wil, ever heard of a spoiler tag? :(

I AM soooo glad that they are going to use the same engine the 360s getting for the PC version as that has been a major cause for concern for the PC crowd. It would suck for ubi to forget that in a lot of cases high end pcs still look as good and in many cases looks better than the 360 in terms of textures and framerate ( we can turn our aa 4x off :) and have a higher res. to make up for it ) Classic case is COD2 Which I would play on my rig any day over my 360 version, and Quake...well theres simply no comparison but that was a developement problem not a 360 hardware shortcoming.

WOOT FOR SAM FISHER!

Reminds me slightly of COR:Escape from Butcher Bay

I can't wait for this game. I want to be a naughty secret agent.

A storyline, it might just be worth it. The replayability looks very high.

I don't know, with the release of Oblivion on both PC and 360, it has been proven that current generation DX9 Cards just cannot hold up there end of the bargain against the these next gen consoles. Until next generation cards such as the Nvid 8k series or ATI X2k comes out I think I'm gonna hold out on getting anymore of these next gen games because not being able to play them at their full glory is really heart breaking (HD res)

Unless you have a pretty nice HD plasma television, xbox 360 doesn't look any better than the pc. My friend has one, but he has a regular flat screen crt, and I wasn't impressed.

I too am curious as to weather or not it will include StarForce... If it does, I most likely will not buy it. (or at least not run it on my main computer, which would suck).

For those unfamiliar with StarForce... Here's a link...
I was a little sad after I bought Chaos Theory, and found out about StarForce.

For shame Ubi... For shame. Your one good game (series), and you screw it up like this. :(

The MGS footage wasn't pre-rendered, kojima even played it in real time rotating angles.
