The SOLE reason why consoles will NEVER have TOTAL CONVERSION MODS(56k=death):

Try making this on a console:

So whats the reason?II_Seraphim_II

The above looked like this:

*yawn* Boring

Because consoles won't get the game in the first place? :?

You might as well have made the name of this thread "why consoles will never have mods" Juggernaut140

*yawn* Boring

Why the hell are those elephants so huge?Mr_Nordquist

They're from LOTR, have you seen the movies? They appear in them

lol, we won't get mods because people don't like hackers on consoles..... so they encript the disk.

The above looked like this:

oh, and that game looks like xbox original graphics, maybe ps2.

Yeah I didn't notice at first, then I noticed the similarity in the units.

I think your point would have been better proven with words.

If OnLive is considered a "console" then you are wrong :P.

So....why is this the case then?
First off the only TRUE reason a TOTAL conversion mod wouldn't be capable on a console is....

1.Actual coding and other stuff has to be done in a TOTAL conversion mod its not just some random peices put together the people that make TOTAL conversion mods actually have programming knowledge they have to edit actual memory of the game and not just throw some textures around.

2.All most all TOTAL conversion mods increase the system requirements of a game so computers that could just play the game on high will no longer be able to and will often have to crank it down to medium or low.

3.This is not a point in power you act like the physical graphical capabilities of that game and the amount of units some how precludes it...Guess what how powerful of a computer do you need to play empire total war with that total conversion mod? likely more then what the current generation of consoles has....That means nothing because im sure by next gen or the gen after consoles will be perfectly capable of what you've shown.

You clearly have no point i had to give you points in this post and none of your points matter because eventually consoles will be at the level to produce those graphical and unit limits, and Total conversion mods need actual programming knowledge so short of a developer doing the conversion mod we wouldn't see a user do it, and total conversion mods change the very system requirements of the game so they aren't the end all be all of the universe.

Nope. It's all Digital Distribution. You don't even have access to the games codes, since they're miles away from you.

[QUOTE="Mr_Nordquist"] Oh, now I get it. I just thought it was Empire Total War with some new units, but not a LotR skin. Makes more sense that way.Mr_Nordquist

apology accepted. :P

That's not a good reason.

Hmm...there doesn't seem to be an adequate reason as to why TC mods can't be made on a console...just a bunch of pictures...

Yeah. So?... RTS games bore me, playing with the army is better than playing as the army. When playing AS the army, it's like you're not playing a game, give some orders and watch.

Sonic Unleashed was my personal 2008 game of the year. Oh right, it can't be because it didn't get better than a 9.5 from gamespot. How foolish of me.

A picture says a 1000 words... But this isn't the case.mo0ksi

Unless you don't know what's the game and haven't seen the movie... I guess so.

If anything is boring, it's Far Cry 2...

The thing that keeps me playing Far Cry 2 is the map editor. More games need to include level creation like Far Cry 2, it keeps me coming back with more ideas for new maps and I also like to check out maps made by other users. Far Cry 2 makes it easy to create and share your own maps.

The core game is still boring... Unless people bought FC2 for map editing... which many PC game offer, example RTS.
