Toshihiro Nagoshi from Amusement Vision mentioned to Famitsu Xbox that they will be showing a playable version of SpikeOut Extreme for Xbox in E3 2004. In addition, they are working with Smilebit on multiple new projects, some of which are coming to Xbox as well.
FINALLY!!
What's it about?
Kickin' ass.Quote:

A lot of us here are surprised this is still coming considering this was announced a LONG time ago. The promise of this on XBOX Live would make this a definite sale for me.Quote:

I would be fucking ecstatic over this if Smilebit hadn't split up, with half of them heading over to join Amusement Vision. :cry:
Hmm, that's good. I figured SpikeOut Extreme was pretty much dead.
Yeah, I thought for sure it was a goner. Good to see that isn't the case.
good news but you watch.....there will be no live play.
Fuck you very much.Quote:

I'll believe it when I see it.
Great. 1 step closer to finally playing this game. Hopefully they haven't changed thier minds about a US release.
BTW, was Spikers Battle anygood?
Smilebit is essentially Sega's sports team now... MB likely means that old Smilebit XBox projects (pre-restructuring) will still see release under Amusment Vision. My money's on a port of Ollie King, Planet Gunsmoke Trigun and hopefully (but unlikely) Daytona Live. I doubt we'll ever see another actual Smilebit game XBox game though, the Let's Make Sports series just seems better suited to PS2/GC/GBA.
Maybe if this sells, we'll see a new streets of rage in development.
That's a big "if" though.
Damn, this is taking a while, nonetheless I'll take it. *-neo
