The Old XBOX Megathread

[Fitzy]

So is Halo still on for tonight or no? If not I shall play Rock Band instead.

[King Ellis]

I only see Dragsy online who plays with us so I guess not.

[Cactus Drags]

I'll play whatever whenever, just chuck me an invite.

[Captain Eo]

i wasn't invited and I was on.

Chances are it's faker than Slogger's mom's tits, but I still deem it postworthy.

You know, I would LOVE for it to be real. However, a side of me believes that this will just get lumped with a Final Fantasy 7 re-make/sequel.

The story is real, not sure about the videos. Rare has indeed completed a Goldeneye remake for XBL, but Nintendo shot it down. There was a story on it here a few weeks back.

[King Ellis]

Don't worry, I annoy people into ignoring me so most of my posts end up coming back around.

[LL!]

I think we're debating the video, not the story. At least, that's what I was debating. I compared it to the FF7 re-make cause of the fact that there was a graphically enhanced video put out there of the beginning of the game. This just seems like something similar.

Most of the graphically enhanced video from the 'beginning' of FF7 is actually from the end of Crisis Core. Although, they could have stolen the bit for Crisis Core from the video instead. I don't know what way round they came. >_>

The tech demo is what I was talking about. But I know I've read elsewhere that all re-make rumors have been shut down as rampantly as they've been coming.

[Cactus Drags]

The video we were talking about is the one I posted, and I know the story was real, I was posting the link for the video. I did't realise I had to spell everything out. I'm not sure on the authenticity of the video, it does have the "saving" content message typical of 360 games at the end, and I think I remember seeing stuff like hit B to go back, but I wouldn't have thought it'd be terribly difficult to mock that up.

LL should go on Xbox now and join me in COD4.

I'm at work cause my boss is racist.

Yea, at the start with the case file interface thing you can see 'B' or what is more of a red circle in the bottom right corner. Then there's a grey circle or what I assume would be Start where you click to start the mission.

[LL!]

Now, I can't really tell if it says B or not. But the N64 had a red "Start" button.

[Kaney]

Fitzy you whore, I've been played CoD for ages.

[Captain Eo]

i don't really doubt the video's authenticity, as in the top left corner it has numbering which I would think shows that it was still in development stages when this video was created. If someone wanted to really do a proper hoax of this they would have showed a "finished" product with the typical XBL menu to "quick start-up my N64 emulator" trick.
