This internet site claims a deal may be in the works to bring TLJ2 to xbox 360. I was a big fan of the original game, but I don't see how a P&C adventure game can translate well to the console. The site says it is also confirmed for Xbox, which I didn't know, but 30 seconds of research did indeed reveal that it was announced for "PC as well as consoles."

I hope it hasn't been dumbed down for consoles (I haven't really been following the development).

Let's just hope it is as good as TLJ, console-dumbed or not.

There was a press demo and folks at AdventureGamers.com say it was spectacular, that the transition to 3D didn't hurt at all.

It's the fighting that still worries me:

fighting in adventure games? thumbs down!

Seriously, wtf? Battles are won with brains, not bullets (or fists)!

Nothing wrong with fighting in adventure games, Indy games had fighting(optional like in Dreamfall) Quest for Glory had them, didn't suck at all, in fact it was enjoyable when you could finally win over that german boxing champion in Last Crusade

It's optional with April and Zoë but Kian will have to fight at some point

I've been told some stuff about the story but i cant say anything, it will be great btw, they changed the fighting system last month.

It's hard for me to imagine it gets ported to 360 and Xbox. I bet it just gets on Xbox as a lot of adventure games have quietly ported to it lately. I haven't read that their console-fitting anything about this game. Quite a lot to live up to content wise with this sequel.

Yeah, I remember boxing at the university and at that nazi castle in Indy & Last Crusader. It was fun. Of course the fighting must be just a tiny part of the adventure game, not major...

look at fahrenheit, there is some action, but its only like the quicktime events in shenmue. i`ll hate adventure games with a real (worse) fighting system. the nomad soul was such a game and the fighting sequences ruined the game at all.

Yeah you do.. you even visit April's old apartment.

As for the fighting, it works like Indiana Jones: FOA.. you can talk your way out of a conflict, fight, or you can sneak pass.
