Thx much for the timeline. As the game would be for an young teen, he may not care about carefully following all the games in order. The last 2

Halo games may be the way to go. As long as its not serious enough for example as reading The Hobbitthenskipping right to The Return of the King.

Am considering buying an XBox. I see there are a few Halo games available.

Do the games run roughly in sequence or can I buy any game?

With as many shows and movies and booksas it has had, its always been a mystery to my why there have been no games created. I know there were a rew a decade or so back, but they were not very good.

Anyone know of any factual reasons why games are not happening? Legal issues?

I can see from a story point of view that it could be hard to stick with the franchise story line. The Prime Directive kinda makes it hard to offer

a no brainer shooter game.

lots and lots of characters to play with...

Just saw the Final Fantasy ad when I went to gamespot. The ad was full of full screen images, and fantastic closeups, etc.But when you play a game, the figures are nothing like the ad.

So what would be required to makea game look like the ad? Ridiculous amounts of memory? $$$$$ ?

Craig

oops.... I meant on a recent platform, PS2 etc.

probably the only game I can play in my advanced years and wiould like to try and find it.

Way back in the day it was the only arcade game I was very good at. super simple graphics and a lot of fun.

has anyone seen this game?

Other dog fight games are not so sensitive. a bit heavy on the toggle and you find yourself miles away from the other plane.

Is there a game setting to tighten up this movement?

thx - Craig

they lead off stating that the problem as been resolved - next thing is to figure out when the "fixed" consoles will be for sale?
