once again it's not that we think owning an xbox makes you an idiot. it's that alot of idiots own xboxes...there are morons of all ages shapes and sizes. not all of em are but there are alot of them....
A lot of idiots play eve too... if you hadnt noticed... just look at this thread.. more insults and stupid people than an average game of Halo if you ask me 
ok ok that was harsh, i dont hate mods.. as an apology the mod who shows the most wuv gets a free mercedes...

Originally by: Mtthias Clemi Edited by: Mtthias Clemi on 04/12/2006 19:48:58 Im still not sure this is what the person meant... but to be honest i find the fact that many people who play eve believe all console gamers to be idiots and stupid teenagers extrmely irritating.. i have all three consoles...im not sure that the game would work well on an xbox or ps3.. a wii? maybe, but i still doubt it.
Anyone who has the audicty to label all people who play on Halo or xbox games stupid or "retarded" in general is sadly misinformed... My borther plays halo online.. he works for the MoD.. i play xbox game online and ive been playing eve for almost two years now.
Im sure i saw someone who reffered to making EVE like halo.. first of all.. halo is a FPS... what else would you have it be apart from a gankfest? lol.. would you like to line up your guns neatly... practice warthog parking perhaps... and anyway anyone who thinks that all halo players are immature kids who just want to kill either doesent have the skill to beat them, or is annoyed by thier voices and cant find the mute setting..
Why dont you try what i do.. and ask everyone random questions.. generally freaks them out.. shuts them up and makes them less likely to come after you, making them easier to kill..
I dont need eve on consoles anyway seeing as i can hook my laptop up to 42inch tv and eve myself to death Im going to stop ranting soon..
I just get very offended when people 1. Insult xbox players 2. insult teenagers as i belong to both categroys... i wouldnt say that all americans/french/spanish were annoying just becuase the ones ive met are, thats generalization, bad practice if you want to earn the respect of anyone.
Anyway ill shut up now, hope you guys calm down and just listen rather than being arrogant and spiteful like the eve community has the tendancy to be.
There's a general rivalry between people who play consols and people who play on computers (a friendly and extremely sarcastic one). Once you understand that you'll understand the responses.

Originally by: Taedrin Nope. Wii/360/PS3 all use IBM's PPC CPUs. EVE is coded for specifically x86. Porting it to PPC would be way too costly. Not to mention that Nintendo/Microsoft/Sony have licensing issues that would require CCP to give them a cut of their profits, force them to sell the game for $60, and/or use their online services.
Actually the PS3 uses the new CELL processor which is even harder to code for than anything else on the market, the amount of different codebases that would need to be maintained would be too large to be kept in checked and tested. ---

Oh is there now... i know that people who play computers generally tend to look down on people who play on consoles, and like to think there is a rivalry, ive never seen any evidence of one tbh, all the people i kno who play consoles simply cant afford to keep up with computers, or somt understand how to run one properly, consoles are just more simple.
Anyway having both i have a pretty nice view, and anyway understand things doesent make them right.

Originally by: Merchantigus Edited by: Merchantigus on 04/12/2006 19:42:42 two pages worth of people think this is the worst idea on earth. perhaps they have a point?(or 2 pages worth of them if you are counting).
*gets out marshmellows* this is more fun than a midget fight.
Hey nothing is as fun as a midget fight and you know it.
But as for the whole retards on xbox-halo thing. I can sorta see their point. My friend is a gasman and we all go on his halo to play online...and i swear to god that the microphone was the worst invention since the betamax. Everyone you can HEAR on it is a 10 year old with one of those very high american kid voices, that is usually making stupid noises or shouting about how he is a "ultimate pker/owner". Although i have to say that there are some nice normal people on xbox-live but like WoW the fast majority really need shooting to increase the strength of our genepool. --------

And the new CELL processor still uses the PPC architecture: Thus saith the wiki:

Ergo it may be using licensed technologies from the PPC arc but its also been improved and changed greatly being able to run up to 8 fully functional cores in a single CELL processor which as i'm sure you'll realise makes it a hell of a lot more difficult to program for considering each core is able to do a completely different task and the early models in the PS3 only use 7 out of the 8 and is clocked at 3.2Ghz :)

Dang, beaten at my own game. TBH, I thought that the Cell processor still used the PPC instruction set. But I guess if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.

Originally by: Kweel Nakashyn Sorry... Semi-joking here, but do you think people from these consoles (that can connect to the net) could have an interest in Eve ?
Could people from this consoles have an interest in Eve? Absolutely.
Should EvE get ported to a console? Absolutely not.
Originally by: Kweel Nakashyn It could be a way to show the game to other guys...
Quality, not quantity. Most of the "I own a console and are not retarted" posts above are also from gamers that own a console AND a PC. You only need to look at the state of most consoles online gaming experience to realize that in order to make Eve attractive enough to a console distributor, radical changes would have to be made to the game that would basically kill it's current form.

simply no.
Apart from the obvious architectural difficulties (Anyone remember the gimping in Deus Ex 2 to make it dual platform?)
Your average console user wants a pick up and play game. Not one where they have to spend hours setting up and executing anything.
Lets face it, you have to be very patient with EvE to get the best gaming experience...

The Wii remote could easily be used to imitate a mouse. The nunchuck atatchment would operate the camera and activate weapons.

would you play EVE on a console? I know i wouldnt, but the average console crowd (as in, the ones that dont own a PC) would probably get bored after the character creation ----------- Turbulance |

Edited by: DubanFP on 04/12/2006 21:55:20 Not the right audience is an understatement. Not all console users are completely immature 10 Y.O. brats. But the immature audiences tend to stray twords consoles and away from computers "thank god". The moment you let a console in on the action the kiddies will come with it. Hence even if porting it to consoles was easy it would be VERY VERY bad.
And the reason for the Simple NOs, isn't being mean or stupid, just no one wants to keep posting all the reasons why over and over and over and over, ect. __________________________ Why babelfish is bad mmm k "which the night do not expect that it calls the primary education before becoming deformed inside" |
