Unfortunetly I don't have any links to back up what I'm posting here but I was speaking with a friend of mine who is a manager at my local EB. He said he was speaking with some MS reps and heard some new rumors in the works for current and upcoming 360 titles.

- Microsoft and Square are apparently in good negotiations to bring FF series to Xbox 360.
- Crackdown is releasing a patch to enable 4 player co-op mode.
- Dead Rising to have Co-op play though live patch.
- Capcom's confirmed release of DMC 4 (But we already know this.)

Jus thought I'd pass this along.:D

Dead rising is coming as a platinum hit. In those copies, there will be co op. People with the original will have to pay for it. The other stuff sounds possible, you never know.

points number 2 and 3 have to be taken as absolute BS because there's nothing to back them up, but 1 and 4 are obvious. Also no real MS rep would be discussing this with an EB manager, just fyi.

Never believe company or product reps, they are the last to know stuff like this. I work with these guys at future shop and they are uniformly uninformed. I had to tell our microsoft rep about the elite - he had no idea it exhisted even after it was official. Also, our serious and xm satalite radio reps had no idea about the merger of their companies. These people are just there to make sure their products are getting the proper placement and space within the store and dont know anything more than any of us would.

1,3 and 4 i believe. 1 is possible cuz square knows that 360 is dominating in the system wars and ps3 still has a long way to go, and who knows maybe they might release on 360 and ps3.

Wrong stud. The Dead Rising Coop is a very real story in EGM, I don't doubt it for one sec.
