Steel Shark, are there any kinds of Final Fantasy-type games on the Xbox? Thanks for all the info.

:
if you mean FF games then i don't think there are any planned (they're on the PS2) any news on Malice? i haven't heard much about that for ages... |
I have news of it earlier in tis Thread. Look for it, lot's of details.A quick synopsis of Malice: Great original look and feel, with tons of gameplay originality. Coming only in Fall 2002 now.
As for RPG's, yes PS2 is looking great for them, but more of the Japanese feel and style, if they are your thing go for them on PS2. Kingdom Hearts from Square and Disney will be an Epic on PS2. Only coming next Summer. XBOX does have some RPG news as well however. Ego yes, as mentioned above, and Xavier FOX, but both games are more of ACT/RPG/SIMS, my type of RPG. There is a game being re-named as I type, it was called Fate, more of a traditional RPG. Only coming in Summer/Fall of 2002. Another of a FF style for the XBOX is called Metal Dungeon. A turn base type RPG. Looks promising, I have seen it up and running at E3. My Brother had just seen it at TGS in Japan, he was pretty impressed. As RPG's go it is of true next-gen quality, keep it in mind. It is more of FF style role playing style. There is another that is still in the shadows, I cannot comment on it in detail, however I have seen it running and looked into some in-depth concepts of it. It is a cross of turn-based and RPG/Act, you have your choice. It is a true heavywight game that is made by a top notch dev team, I can not get into more about it, it's top secret you know.Microsoft will be pushing it as a big game for there Fall 2002 games list.It will beat out in both gameplay and graphics any RPG to date,even FF, Sorry Abe babe but true,it is really astounding. But then again maybe the next FF's will be better again as well. ;) So RPG is coming to XBOX, don't you worry about that. One at launch is Nightcaster. but it is more of a ACT/RPG, take a look at it, you may like it. ;) Here are some new Shrek shots: http://www.activexbox.com/xbox/scree...ek/index.shtml I just love that CG OGRE, he is just beautiful to me. 90 hours of platforming bliss. Shrek is comprised of 16.500 polys, High texture detail and some impressive A.I. I will be all over Shrek in just 4 more weeks.All over the game I mean, I love Shrek as a movie and game character, I'll save my other loving for the beautiful ladies of the world, thank you very much. ;) I have been running with a few games on my debugger, oh it's something wonderful, Heavens beast and 24 Automatons are just so advanced. They are still about 9 months off but already better than anything out there...PERIOD>>>> A.I. graphics, gameplay,physics, just soooo very advanced. It's a pity I cannot get the full versions now. It is great getting the games for early looks, but still almost a curse, you play a bit and then wait somemore, almost torture. But it's a good problem to have. ;) |
Hey Steel, I know this probably comes up a lot, but how do you like the XBOX controller? Are there anythings you don't like about it? Is it one of those "you get used to it after a couple 14 hour gaming block" type things? Are there any third-party controllers/peripherals we should have our eye on? I don't know if I'll get any third-party controllers, mainly because for all those four player romps you don't want one person to have a stainless steel uber-controller with macros. But I can always get more than 4 :)

Brute force movie and about 20 more or so
That's right, do you want them? I can't hear you, I still can't hear you, Ok that's better, I hear you now, here they are: Movies galore, check them out.Including Brute force and Munch. I am not sure if the Munch one has been seen or not by you but you can check. http://www.vg.no/pub/vgart.hbs?artid=5804120 Brute force is awesome, it is the first of the real next-gen games beyond this launch and Holiday season. Other top movies there as well. Have fun. And you are welcome. Fuzzy the controller is top notch. I am 6-4 and it is really perfect. One of my artists is 5-8 another about 5-10, and one small one we call flea is 5-4 or so, and all have no complaints. The functionality is spot on. I love it personally. Just get originals, they are for the most part more reliable and trustworthy. But you are always free to look for outside help.If or when you find something speacial let us know. Cool, back to the Debugger and 24 Automatons. :D |
XBOX unleashed, are you good enough? http://www.xbox.com/unleashed/
|
And yet another RPG, yes the Box even covers those, ;) Gaia Blade is here.....
http://gamespot.com/gamespot/filters...533279,00.html Trailer and 3 screens, just character shots, but it's a beginning. |
#$%(&()!!! TeamXBOX is down, and I'm not sure if it's permanent, or if it'll come back eventually. That sucks...They were the best XBOX fansite in my opinion...
BTW: Do you like my new signature? |
Will the Xbox support a DSL internet connection?
|
Yay! TeamXBOX is coming back! *happy*

Ron: Yes
Fuzzy: It is good news. EB world will be backing them. Here is some more news: The marketing wheels at Microsoft are grinding into motion as the software giant gears up to launch its Xbox video game console, which it envisions not only as a gaming machine but an entertainment hub for the home. With less than a month to go before the Nov. 15 debut of Microsoft’s big foray into the $20 billion-a-year global video game market, the company is marshaling everything from Mexican food to 18-wheel trucks to preach the Xbox gospel, executives said Friday. "On the marketing side it’s all about building buzz," said Robbie Bach, Microsoft’s "Chief Xbox Officer". The first advertisements are just now starting to appear in gaming magazines, marking the beach-head of a half-billion-dollar campaign to sell the Xbox over the next year and a half. Soon, ads on youth-oriented television stations like MTV and WB will start beaming the message. And Microsoft hopes Taco Bell customers will be shouting "Yo quiero Xbox!" (I want Xbox!) as the fast-food Mexican chain, a unit of Tricon Global Restaurants Inc., starts splashing the product’s distinctive radioactive-green logo across nearly 7,000 stores. Other co-marketing efforts will include Vans sneakers and SoBe drinks. Microsoft will follow those carpet-bombing tactics with the advertising equivalent of surgical strikes: two custom-built 18-wheelers will travel to more than 40 cities, deploying a giant inflatable pavilion equipped with 50 Xbox machines that visitors can play. So you can get some sneak peaks if interested. |
Xavier FOx interview:
Exclusive Vision Games: Xavier Fox Interview 10/19/2001, by Jason Stephen White, one of the big cheeses over at Vision Games agrees to talk with the Old Jedi in an exclusive interview with XBOX365. Steve yaks about Xavier Fox, the Xbox exclusive title, how the game is coming along, how excited Vision Games are about working on Xbox and why Xavier Fox could only appear on Xbox. Keep your eyes peeled for an Xavier Fox prize give-away - just for XBOX365 readers, click to read the interview and we'll have more details on that give-away... Tell us a little about Vision Games. Vision Games is a young development company whose focus is on creating the best games possible. We believe that games are at a turning point in their evolution and that we have the opportunity to create titles that will influence and improve the future of video gaming forever. What is your position at Vision Games? My official title right now is Director, which means I'm in charge of things. Dean and I founded Vision Games in August of 2000 and we're working as partners through the whole creation. It's really been a great relationship and we've found that we make a great team. Tell us about your upcoming game Xavier Fox. Xavier Fox is the beginning of the future of gaming. Dean and I set out to take advantage of the new hardware capabilities that are being presented by the Xbox. We believe that games are on their way towards more interactivity and more fulfilling experiences. Xavier Fox is the first step in that direction. The world is a living, breathing world that grows and adapts over time. Players can directly influence the growth of the world they live in, and soon every different copy of Xavier Fox will have an unique world shaped by the unique events of that player. Was developing a game for the Xbox a good experience? So far it's been wonderful. Dean and I, and the entire team have gotten an incredible amount of support from the entire industry, including the gaming media, middleware companies, and Microsoft itself. Everyone's been very supportive and helpful. In addition, working with the Xbox allows us to do pretty much whatever we want with the game. The possibilities of this machine are incredible. If Dean and I ever find something that we'd like to do that isn't possible we just talk it out a little bit and find a way for it to work that usually ends up better than the original idea. It's very liberating creatively, and very exciting. Did the Xbox hardware allow you to make the game you envisioned and would you have been able to make Xavier Fox on other consoles? Well, we're not done yet, so it's a bit too soon to talk about how close the final product is to our original vision, but so far we've gotten everything to work that we've tried. As to the second part of your question, no. There's no way to do Xavier Fox on a different console. Without the hardware in the Xbox the world just wouldn't be possible. The hard drive eliminates load times that would break up the entire experience, the broadband connectivity allows for changes in the world to be made after release and allows for interactivity on a level that isn't possible on other machines, the amount of textures and polygons that the Xbox can push allows for much more detailed and adaptive worlds, the audio capabilities allow us to use sounds in ways that have never been possible for gaming. Early on we considered putting Xavier on another console. Dean and I spent hours trying to get the control setup to work on another machine, and it just doesn't work. You either end up losing a lot of the features that allow hard-core gamers to really get into the game, or you end up losing some of the features that allow it to be easy to learn. Xavier Fox was designed with the Xbox in mind, and a port just wouldn't be the same experience. What separates Xavier Fox from console games of it's nature? Well, I think Xavier Fox is the first of it's kind in a lot of ways. We cross a lot of boundaries and don't really fit into one genre. I think what we did was come up with an idea for a game, and then just went with it. This is a new generation of hardware that will change the very nature of gaming, and Xavier Fox is a natural outreach of that. From start to finish how many hours of game play can Xbox owners expect to get out of Xavier Fox? As many as they want. Bare minimum, you'll probably have 40 hours of straight-through rush to the end play. If you go on side-adventures, explore the world, really get into the plot and story of the world, the game could take years to complete. And I think that the most exciting part is that with broadband connectivity and a hard drive, when you "finish" the main quest, it could turn out to be just the beginning. Tell us about what quality of graphics gamers can expect in Xavier Fox. Is it true that weather even plays a part in the game? We are going to for the highest graphical quality. Like I said earlier, we' re taking advantage of all of the Xbox's hardware, and Nvidia's graphics chip is certainly not being overlooked. We're creating morph targets for many of the characters so they can truly sound out words and have real lip-synching in realtime. We're also utilizing pixel-shaders to give Xavier realistic fur. We're really excited about the graphical capabilities of this machine. How many characters are their in Xavier Fox? Hundreds. The two main characters are Xavier and Max, and there are other characters that you'll probably spend a lot of time with, but the game world has large population that learns and grows. How, why and how much you interact with other characters is up to you. Will the game be available on the Xbox's launch day? No, we're actually targeting for a release with Xbox's 1 year birthday. Does Vision Games have any other Xbox games in Development? Yep. ;-) In closing, what can Xbox gamers expect from Xavier Fox? You can expect the beginning of a revolution in gaming. Xavier Fox will deliver an experience unlike any other. With the possibility of a true emotional outlet in the game, a truly interactive world that adapts and grows with you and interactivity with people and gamers from across the globe, Xavier Fox will help to propel gaming into the next level. Thanks for your time and we at Xbox365 are planning to spend many hours with Xavier Fox upon release! |
Is there any news on the Matrix game or Half-Life 2 for xbox?
|
Half life 2 will be coming soon, last I heard after the new year sometime in Febuary, we shall see.
Matrix is shrouded in secrecy.I got a chance to see concepts, not actual gameplay at E3. My Brother has seen it running just this past month at TGS. Matrix is a 3rd person act/adv game with all the potential in the world. From the dev team that brought us the original MDK, and Messiah, along with Sacrifice, and many titles before those such as Alladin, jungle book, Spot the Dot, just to name a few more. Dave Perry known as the Tall man of gaming even taller than me,heads the company. He has vowed to keep the game under wraps, in the past he came out with news faster than anyone else. It hurt him with games such as Messiah, due to Messiah being way ahead of the crowd in a technolgy standpoint in it's erly days. But too much time past and Messiah was caught taking too much time to develope. Eventualy it turned out more ambitious than was possible, and the game suffered from it. Not being able to pull off the early ideas and concepts. As for Matrix, if done following the blueprints or concepts and gameplay promised, it will be astounding. News of Matrix will begin circulating in Febuary. They expect a release date in May/June. The company is known to have major delays, but promise that this time things will come together in time. It is one to watch, that is for sure. When I get any news, i'll pass it on. |
Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams
A tiny handful of movies plus plenty of new information have been added to this preview. http://xbox.ign.com/previews/16240.html Here is the info: In an interview with our buddies over at IGN PS2, the producer of Silent Hill 2, Akihito Imamura says "Although it is '2,' this is not a continued story of '1.' This is a story of a completely different man." Not that we don't care about poor Harry Mason and the folks from the original Silent Hill on the PlayStation, but a new story with a new main character is the perfect for the franchise to continue on the Xbox. New is always a good thing even if it's a little scary, or in the case of Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams, downright chilling. Features Return to Silent Hill and explore parts of the town that were closed off in the original. Incredible graphics and true-to-life CG visuals leave you on the edge of your seat. Real-time weather effects, morphing and shadows will confuse your senses. Atmospheric lighting and ambient surround sound makes every moment suspenseful. Dynamic camera effects and beautifully rendered environments deliver a cinematic horror experience. Xbox-exclusive sub scenario "Born From a Wish" offers 4-6 hours of gameplay in addition to main storyline. Cinematic Noise Filter can be turned off to remove the "grainy effect." First off, to appreciate what will be the Xbox version of Silent Hill 2, we'll have to hype up the atmosphere effects that we've seen in the PS2 game. In a word they're awesome. Volumetric fog could very well be the lens flare of the 21st century, the videogame effect that every console simply has to have to be considered "next generation." It swirls and creeps and hangs in the air with such realism that you'll have a serious new appreciation for fog. Swirling little clouds of humidity won't make the game any fun if it's lacking in other departments, but there is still reason to be excited about this. With Xbox's graphic capabilities it's easy to say that it will be able to do whatever the PS2 can do, only better. But why not make every other part of the game that much crisper, add some more depth to the gameplay and just take the fog effects as they are? But enough about the fog, this game is supposed to be scary and it'll take more than a low altitude cloud to do that. The new story revolves around John Sunderland and his reasons for visiting the town of Silent Hill. It seems poor John hasn't been the same since his wife, Mary, passed a few years ago. He's shaken out of his permanent haze of depression when he receives a letter from his wife telling him that she's waiting for him at their "special place" &&.in Silent Hill. If that isn't a set up then I don't know what is, but our hero hits the town to get to the bottom of that letter and whatever else is waiting for him. To this point, we've been hard-pressed to forego mentioning that game that rhymes with an R, ends with an L and rhymes with president weevil. But now we're at the part where we have to mention zombies so we can't help it. There are undead creatures walking around the town that want to hurt you, some conventional weapons to help you defend yourself and puzzles that must be solved if you want to solve the mystery of this game, but any other resemblance to Resident Evil is purely coincidental. With Capcom updating their RE concept with games like Devil May Cry, it seems Konami is very comfortable enhancing and improving on that concept by carrying Silent Hill 2 to the Xbox and PS2 with all of the graphical and gameplay upgrades possible on those new systems. But if you notice, there is the phrase "Restless Dreams" dangling at the end of the words Silent Hill 2 at the top of this preview. That's a marketing tool that basically says, "yeah this is Silent Hill 2, but this one is only for Xbox, so there is going to be some stuff in this game that you won't see on any other system." All of that meaning jammed into those two little words. The option to play "Born from a Wish" should make Silent Hill fans happy with their Xboxes because nobody else will get play a bonus sub scenario as Maria, the sexy gal James meets in the main story. That's an extra 4-6 hours of gameplay with better graphics all for the miniscule price of $49.99. In the meantime enjoy the Xbox screens, the movie clip from 4gamer.net and IGN PS2's Week of Silent Hill feature to get your heart racing. Outlook: Judging from the title, Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams, should be a fine follow up to a hit PSX title that makes brilliant use of the Xbox hardware. Having the cheese scared out of you in 5.1 digital surround sound should be a whole new experience. And while a game like this tends to move too slow to make good use of the 60 frames per second of evil, I say that just leaves the door open for a few surprises. This time around we know we'll be scared but the question is how over the top will Konami go to creep us out? |
Stung screenshots. Kind of reminds me of the old Saturn game Clockwork Knight. At E3 it relly reminded me of CWK.These new shots....... well somewhat.
Check out this unique new game, which stars bugs armed to the teeth. Prey Digital Studios, a newly formed European development studio, has announced Stung, its first game. According to the developer, the game is similar to games like Half-Life, but with an intriguing setting. As the game's story goes, the military, during the time of the Cold War, experimented with using insects in battle. Essentially, insects had the ability to carry viruses, infiltrate enemy facilities undetected, survive nuclear attacks, and even carry tiny weapons of war. However, the insect project has since been scrapped, and a war continues to wage in the bowels of the insect laboratory. In this tongue-in-cheek action game, players assume the role one of these heavily armed insects, and the objective is to survive a variety of enemies, including bugs and other larger animals. Aside from the ornery opposition, players will be faced with a wide range of obstacles, including steam from boiling kettles, spider webs, sticky flypaper traps, and deadly bug spray. In addition to the first-person single-player game, Stung will feature a variety of multiplayer modes, such as deathmatch and capture-the-flag. Prey Digital is currently seeking a publisher for the project and plans to release Stung for the Microsoft Xbox and PC platforms.

Thanks for the info. TEAMXBOX is back!!!! :) :) :D :D :cool:
|
While I've had the Debugger/XBOX for some time, today is the first day I've had any real games for it( Other than concept demos. Earlier this morning at around 9:30 a sweet package from Microsoft came that included: Halo, Dead or Alive 3, Project Gotham Racing, Fusion Frenzy, another two games will be coming next week. These are finished games. Munch is not one of them. I'll be waiting some more, like everyone else.
The games are running very beautifully. Halo has all frames running at 30-60 no matter how crowded things get.It is really amazing, even better than I had hoped. Fusion Frenzy is a funner party game than even Mario party, and the graphics are far beyond Mario party.So if you liked Mario Party you will love Fusion Frenzy. DOA3 is by far the best fighter in both looks, and gameplay. Not my favorite genre but this game can make a believer of me.Project Gotham is the best looking racer to date, yes even better than GT3, I know it is a bold statement but a true one. As for gameplay it is similar to Metropolis from Dreamcast, ( Same team ) but again with added extras already in the early stages. Halo is really something. Multiplayer, co-op play, great A.I., the best I have ever witnessed in a finished game. Others recently have shown me quite a bit as well, but they are still a ways off. Back with more later. ;) |
Duality screens. The MGS2 killer only for the BOX. MGS2 on stearoids.

Hey, SS, I read that to be able to use XBOX's internet capabilities there'll be a monthly fee. Do you know how much? And do you know if some games will charge more monthly money? 'Cause I'd much rather buy more games then shelling out my $$ paying outrageous fees for online games...
|
I don't know if the xbox its self will cost a fee to use the internet, but I'm pretty sure that I read that one game would cost its own monthly fee. (I think it was Fantasy Star Online, but I'm not sure).
[ October 28, 2001: Message edited by: RoN_Rancor ] |
Well, this is from page 214 of this Months Electronic Gaming Monthly
"Mircrosoft sin't kicking off its broadband-gaming service-which will involve a single monthly fee to play all of XBOX's Online Games-until the first half of next year." So I want to know if that monthly fee will cover ALL games, including MMORPG's, and about how much it will be. |
Hey Steel, just one quick question before you get all those XBOX games on Monday (we might not see you for months :) ). Do you know any 'insider' information on Galleon? I just got interested in it, and the graphics are really amazing...I never really cared for Tomb Raider, but this seems to have a much more realized plot...

A hands on look at Fusion Frenzy by the Steel shark..........
Thanks to my Debugger I get a look at it now. While waiting for my Bro to get back to town this Wednesday night to play the Great Munch and Halo I have been playing Fusion Frenzy with a couple of my companions, the "Sharkettes". What a party game it is. Sometimes we overlook the most important purpose of games: to have fun. Each mini-game is unique and intuitively created.Fuzion Frenzy pits players against each other in a crazy dash to construct their own balls before a true offense can be mounted. In a very nice twist, the main game is not merely a way for players to get from one mini-game to the next, but also a way of gathering strength since power-ups can be carried into the mini-games. You can find all kinds of genres torn down to their core parts, allowing for quick and unencumbered play. This game will just be a must have for endless good times. It just is always new and you will never play the same game twice, from tron like games to speed boat racing and everything in-between. Each mini-game, 45 of them are all very unique, and all are very fun. No matter which one you play, you will have a very good time with. The graphics are not revolutionary, but do offer quite a bit of eye-candy.Graphically Fuzion Frenzy is still outstanding. Pushing incredible models, backgrounds and lighting effects that are only possible on the Xbox console. The effects too are very effective in what they try to bring to the table. If you liked Mario party, you will "LOVE" this game. It does everything right in the world of all out fun and competition. There are 6 arena's and some of the games include: "King of the Hill," where you get to drive these odd little hovercrafts and slam into other contestants in an attempt to knock them off a different style of platform. Another is "Sumo," four gladiators in giant, spherical "hamster cages" roll around a platform with the intent of knocking the other three players over the edge. Of course, the platform becomes smaller over time. They are all very fun, and that's what this game offers, absolute fun. So when not Munching, or Halo blasting, or all else possible with XBOX you will have one very fun and addictive party game for 2 -4 people to really love and have as much fun as possible with. ;) :D [ November 10, 2001: Message edited by: Steel Shark ] |
Screenshots galore http://www.teamxbox.com/article.php?id=198&t=f
DOA3, Fusion Frenzy, Hockey, and Shrek. |
Yay! Looked like a picked all winners for my bundle...Although I heard that the Fuzion Frenzy single-player game isn't very fun.Is that true? Because we all know that you can't always hook up with 3 friends, and I may need to practice my Fuzion Frenzy skillz solo.

Crash Bandicoot Boogies Over to Xbox
Crash Bandicoot, one of the biggest stars on Playstation is bounding his way over to Xbox. Video Business Online has learned that Universal Interactive Studios is readying an enhanced version of Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex for Xbox. The move has symbolic and literal importance to Microsoft's new platform. Not only will Xbox gamers get access to Sony's mascot from a few years ago--the Bandicoot series surpassed 6 million worldwide unit sales in 1999--but Microsoft gets a family-friendly game (in addition to Shrek) to appeal to a wider swath of consumers than the mostly hardcore Xbox launch lineup. SCEA will definitely get some lead time in the market with the PoS2 Crash Bandicoot: Wrath of Cortex. UIS senior producer Daniel Suarez could not divulge how much time. He said the Xbox version would retain the same core game elements as the PoS2 title but would be enhanced "to harness the Xbox's powerful graphics technology." Suarez said the Xbox title will add special 3D texture effects such as bump mapping and use the system's built-in hard drive to speed file and graphics load times. "Having Crash Bandicoot as part of our lineup is awesome," said Seamus Blackley, manager of Xbox's Advanced Technology Group. Fuzzy: I have played Fusion Frenzy for many a hour already. With 2-4 players it is Mario Party on stearoids. It is a real fun game. Never plays the same, very original in it's game concept. As a single player game it too is still fun, you do play against Computer opponents. However it still is just more fun with friends. The game has alot of strategy as well, it is actually deeper than one would think at first glance. It's one of my games for the beautiful XBOX launch. I have been really tested on holding back Munch and Halo until Wednesday to play with my Brother. But Fusion Frenzy and a few freinds most notably the Sharkettes of Newport beach have been keeping me busy. Almost there now, 3 for me, and 4 for you and most everyone else. ;) :D |

Hey Steel Shark, could you tell me about "Devil May Cry" coming to the Xbox. I played it for the PS2 and I LOVED IT!!! :D :D
|
I have heard from a reliable source two months ago that DMC will be coming to XBOX in Feb/March. But it will be in a Directors cut version, added levels and extra eye-candy. They will announce after the Holidays so that they can get as much in the sales department as possible with the PS2 version. And then go for the cash cow way in early 2002 with XBOX.
;) :D |

Well before I go off to XBOX heaven, i"ll post next year's titles of bliss.
Project EGO Orchid Panzer Dragoon X Matrix 24 Automatons Heavens Beast Terminal Reality Brute Force BC Enclave Call of the Dragonfly Strident Duality Kehl Knights Nomads MGS 2 X (Directors cut baby) Un holy Yager Breed Malice Swat ( Ist person Shooter) Dominion Phoenix ( code name from Halo makers Oddworld's next hit ??? And about 15 more I know of but are a bit early to brag about just yet. All games above are basically well rounded 3RD person act/adv/puzzlers, all I can say are equal or in about half there cases stand above all we have seen to date, including the Halo's and MGs 2 's of today. Orchid for example will be a Munch type feel but next gen once again, wait until you see it. The ones coming first on that great list are Brute force and Enclave, about April/May. And don't forget all the other genres. Those are "MY" best and most wanted, all in the 3rd person views. Exploration, stealth, action, strategy. Well it's XBOX time, got to go, I am off to Bliss. |
Sorry to bring up an old topic (It makes more sense then making new ones), but SS, if you're out there (and can take 5 minutes away from the 'BOX to answer ;)), do you know what the most recent release date is for Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind? I know earlier you said May, but EBgames.com has it listed for the 15th of February as of now.
