How does CvsSNK2 free with Xbox LIVE starter kit sound?
"We have heard from an inside source that Capcom Vs. SNK 2 will be one of the pack-in titles for Xbox Live. We were recently told that the big pack-in game would not be Revolt, was a title who's franchise we knew, but had not yet seen on Xbox -- and that it was something worthwhile.
While Microsoft has not yet announced the official launch line-up for Xbox Live, we'd put our money on Capcom Vs. SNK 2 leading the pack."

I'll wait until an official announcement before I believe that...
Wow, this is some potentially good news. I've wanted fighting games to go online, and I think CvS2 isn't too bad of a choice. Lots of characters to mess around with, and lots of different modes to play in (assuming the servers can search for 1v1s, 3v3s, etc.) Plus, how cool would it be to use your custom colored character? It's flawed, sure, but when there's people to play against, most anything's fun (unless we're talking about tournament level play here, which is rarely fun, CvS2, MvC2, or otherwise...).
some how i HIGHLY doubt thisQuote:

considering that Xbox live ships in november and this has just been announced thats a whole 2 months well not even really since this month is almost over
No it couldn't... as people have mentioned here, there were two different types of online structures for Japanese DC online gaming.Quote:
and as someone pointed out earlier.. it's too little too late..
this could have been done on the DC.
One uses a real network. Games include Daytona USA, PSO, Sakura Taisen Online, etc. Anyone from the US could have connected to these servers through their own ISP and started a game.
The other structure uses direct connection, which mainly Capcom used. They call it "Matching Service" and that's exactly what it was. Not unlike the service XBand provided here in the US back in the 16 bit days. The thing is, it's a heckuvalot easier and feasible for that to happen in Japan than it is in the Western world. Not only is the US a heckuvalot bigger, but you'd incur long-distance calling fees depending where your opponent lived.
And considering the XBox's service is broadband only, that just further reinforces that it could not have been done on DC. You ever play with XBand SSF2? I did. It was fun, but it was hardly skillful as every shouryuuken you throw comes out about a second later. Sure the DC's 56k modem is better than the XBand's 14.4, but in a game where timing is the most important aspect, I'm glad Capcom didn't kill it by allowing dialup people to play.
Oh and lastly, why are people wishing that it'd be the new Capcom All-Stars game? If anything, I would have much preferred it be Street Fighter II: Turbo/Hyper Fighting or Street Fighter III (any of them).
Darn near every Capcom fighter outside of the main series is trash.
It's new. CvS2 is getting stale already.Quote:
